My Photo
Midland, Texas, United States
My name rhymes with "Lisa," I live in Midland, Texas, because it's warm and the mortgage is cheap, and of course this is my natural hair color. Of course! The EGE--The Ever-Gorgeous Earl--is my husband of 35 years. I have the best job in the world because I get to call up artists and ask them nosy questions and then write about them. I also stitch, podcast, blog, and then, in my spare time, do it all some more.

The Finished Cell Phone Case


Here it is. The flap is a little snug to snap, but I think that's a good thing. The heart covers the back of the snap, the prong things.

I had fun doing this, so I'll probably make some in other colors eventually. Or not. Depends on if I start something else I love. I definitely have plenty of thick wool felt and silk for the lining and floss and beads, and I have 5 more magnetic snaps, so. . . .I would make some in a bunch of colors just to have, but, man! There are so many things I want to make, and if I make multiples just because it's fun, then I won't get to make any more of, oh, the leather roses I did as a test. Or the animals I'm working on. Or the journal skirt--it needs more stuff. Yiiiiii--I need more hours in the day, more hands, more free time.

I love how it turned out. It's gorgeous! Yes, not enough time in the day. I have plans to finish a pair of socks today that I started last week. I keep getting distracted by appointments with my support worker, and having to go buy food. Oh, and the internet. That's a big distraction. :)

Simply adore the beadwork around the edges. Nice work!

Leather roses? I didn't see any leather roses in previous posts *accusing tone*. (she now seems to think it is her 'right' to see everything the fabulous Rice creates.)

You finished it so quickly! I am really slow at making stuff. I like that you made it out of your own felted whatever it was. I want to try that.

Hmmm, I see glasses cases, cosmetic bags (if I wore cosmetics, which I don't), case for a small note pad...oh, the possibilities are endless. ;=}

Okay, now I must go do something to turn my brain off! Once again, Rice, you have caused inspiration sparks to fly. LOL
