Mom strikes again

[soc_puppet]

Another adorable purse! I am so going to have to learn to make these for myself, so I can take over and make money. 'Cuz yeah.

New MKR purse!




A Presea's weapons purse! Perfect fit :Db Someone who makes accessories, on an accessory! ...Or something. Anyway, I approve.




The inside. Mostly just the other side of the pages, which give us some very nice background on why certain weapons chose the girls on one side, and a nifty little pocket and stuff about belief being power on the other.



Fake (very fake) reptile skin for the sides and bottom instead of more cut-up pages. It works pretty well.


I have so got to find backpack patterns now.

Edit: Okay, friendly internet people! Who knows anything about how conventions get away with having artists alleys with copyright law and all that fun stuff?

Oh, also, my area of Iowa's getting some pretty bad rainfall and flooding. Like, nearing 1993 levels of flooding, which was pretty damn bad. (They said it was a "once in half a millennium" flood. Were they wrong?) As for me, I'm just hoping that the pope doesn't decide to spontaneously visit the US this summer, 'cuz that's where all the porta-potties went in '93.

Wow that is so pretty!! I want one ._.

Okay, that settles it. I am officially learning to make these, getting a credit card, and setting up an online store. I'll find a way around copyright law somehow...

I think my location is more dangerous than you. You can see the map as to how far is the Hawkeye Court from Clear Creek-- although the landlord assured us that in 1993 this place was not evacuated.

I'm not so worried about me as I am about family (like my uncle who lives on the riverside and whose house was horribly flooded in '93) and friends (not just you, but my BFF was in Mayflower a year or two ago, so). ...And, to a lesser extent, the Marriot where Anime Iowa is hosted, but mostly family and friends, really.

Small question! Can you not do the sewing inside then flip out like you do with most sewing?

[soc_puppet]

I. I assume so? I didn't ask when she gave it to me, though now that I think about it, doing the seams all one way or the other would probably be the best idea, and I don't see any reason why they couldn't be on the inside...

Ooooh~

[soc_puppet]

Isn't it, though? :DD

YOU KNOW WHAT I HAD BEEN THINKING LAST NIGHT? "I wonder if this'll turn out as bad or worse than the '93 flood." Apparently the dam in the town 10 minutes north of here is in danger of failing, lolol shit. And that was before it just starting pissing on us again about 20 minutes ago.

o_O Daaaaang, that's so not good. I need to look into getting new boots...

I've heard the flooding has been real bad. I hope that it doesn't get worse and goes down soon.

And I need to make myself one of those purses! What type of laminate does your mom use?

[soc_puppet]

Yeah, it hasn't been too pleasant :/ Granted, I've not really gotten any of it myself, but it still doesn't look at all fun. And ditto D:

*finally checks with her* ...Contact paper! The clear kind :3 You get it in rolls at hardware stores. A lot of people use it to line shelves.

I remember what it was like to be stuck inside for 3-4 days due to rain (and because of the damage of the flooding, school was cancelled for the whole week). I can only imagine what the flooding up there is like.

That's what I thought. But I thought it would gunk up the sewing needle and thread. Does she used a special needle and/or thread?
