Socks up
On Saturday we drove to Ohio to a Joanns Superstore to look at a Yudu. I’d seen videos but I wanted to see it in-person before I bought it. It was a really cool little machine. Much cooler than I expected, actually. But I didn’t get it. All I would use it for is personal use, really, and the whole process takes a lot of time that I really don’t have just to print a few onsies and tshirts. After seeing it though, I would recommend it to anyone looking for a home screen-printer though. The accessories are kind of expensive, but since Joanns is carrying it, you can get 40% off coupons pretty reguarly to use on it I bet.
I actually got to do a bit of extraneous crafting this weekend!
I made this sock monkey for Aaron and I made Sullivan a monster stuffie (that I can’t find to take photos of). I’m really just getting into stuffie making — probably late in the game considering the CPSIA stuff. The monkey’s from the book Sock and Glove by Miyako Kanamori. It’s a really cute book (written in English) and the illustrations are pretty clear. The hardest part was doing the embroidery on a 3 dimensional surface. Obviously I need more practice!
Today’s agenda mostly involves research for my thesis and writing for my poetry class. Blek. Happy Monday peoples!
