WIP Wednesday: Llama style

Did you see that the schedule and prizes for Christmas in July were announced earlier today? No? Well then go take a look and I'll wait.

Right?! Exciting stuff!

So what have I been working on other than holiday items in the 96 degree heat we've had in the past few days?

Well, firstly [firstly, is that a word?], yesterday I found out that I've been hired to teach quilting classes at the only somewhat modern shop around! I submitted about 12 of my projects and they're having trouble narrowing what to actually list on the class schedule :)

The twin version of my mustache mini. [I've just listed some of the minis in my Etsy shop]



Llamalicious llamas, to be exact.

Jessica and I agreed to a private swap a couple months ago, and I'm sad to say that I really played the moving card, and have taken much longer with her mini than I should have. So before I'm allowed to do anything else I told myself I had to finish that project! And I wanted to make it extra spectacular for her being so patient with me.

So I finally found my Photoshop CD and reinstalled it on my new computer. But um, I should probably take better pictures from the get-go, yes? Pinky promise I'm working on it.

Since she hasn't seen it yet, I'm only showing tiny sneak peeks, but I'll do the full reveal as soon as she receives it. I looooove it. Seriously. I might have to make another and turn it into a full Llamalicious quilt.

Seriously, hipster llamas? My quilting life is complete.

Do you have a novelty obsession thing like this that you'd love to see printed on fabric?

  1. This is so wonderful. Mainly because the llamas are wearing knitted hipster hats that (in my mind) are totally made out of alpaca/llama fur. So it's pretty much like cutting your hair, dyeing it, braiding it, and wearing it as a hat! Awesome!
