A time for everything? Really?

The next two study periods at uni are textiles subjects, so i am hoping so much that I might be able to sew again soon. Mostly though, I have written essays and made some prints in my printmaking subject.

Sadly, and to my own detriment I have done no sewing since February really - how depressing!

I have a further confession. Spotlight here, moved from it's old location into a new -big- mega warehouse space, and I have not even had the pleasure of walking into it yet - devastated!

I have done a bit of crochet here and there, nothing finished, some went very wrong and needs re-doing.

At the moment I am working on a little, retro-inspired yellow, cotton, summer, baby cardigan, with bee buttons. I'm hoping I can make the sleeves correctly, because the last time i made this pattern in a blue and white, thicker yarn, the sleeves came out quite a lot narrower than the shaped space for them, I have no idea what happened!
This time I am going to check it bit by bit and not just follow the pattern!

Theres still a lot to do, the sleeves, the neck band and front border for the buttons.
I hope you are all having way more sewing/crochet/knitting time than I am. So now I will go and catch up with all your lovely blogs before i go back to my art history essay!!

Not my blog!

Hi lovelies, I was made aware that a link on my blog roll of the blogs I read was coming up as having been hijacked by Malware losers.
I've removed Handmade Matters from my blogroll at least until they are not hijacked anymore.

VERY thankful it wasn't my blog that had been hijacked!

So, if you are hearing of people getting the same messages about Malware when visiting your blog, check your blogroll links, and check them in multiple browsers. I'm on a Mac and it only showed up in Chrome (because Chrome pre-checks every link on the page it is loading) and Camino another browser picked it up too apparently as well says my husband.

And to distract you from the Losers who have hijacked some poor persons site...Heres a little bit of pretty I made the other day for my Art course.

Well, you know, stuff happened!

I know I know I've been gone soooo very long.
I didn't mean to it just kind of happened!

I haven't been sewing:(
I haven't been knitting:(
I haven't worked very much:(
I did a little bit of crochet. - I still haven't stitched it together yet YIKES!
I enrolled in University...WOW what a workload! A Fine Arts and Visual Culture degree for the next 3 years! All my work for this SP is due next week...STRESS!
I've been filling my days with Art, and Artists, research, research and more research, drawing, painting and photographing, visual art diaries, plasticine clay-mation animations, charcoal, pencils, paint and paper....ahhhhh I feel like I haven't had a moment to breathe! BUT it is all delicious!

This is one of the favourites of the things I've made so far, it is a collage made from painting sheets of paper in tonal greys then cutting them up to create a picture.

Next SP I get to do Printmaking...I CAN'T wait for that one! But also looking forward to some free time soon, maybe to sew! I bought fabric at Ikea at Easter...I have such big plans! Please let me at the sewing machine soon!
