Cupcakes

Yesterday i finally sat down and made a cushion cover (I've been meaning to make one ever since i got my sewing machine in march eeek!) I have some very nice fabric that i already made a pencil case out of:

The Front















and the Back, nice and simple cover, all one bit of fabric, something i learned at school (though i haven't made one since then either!)

Not pleased with how loose the flap is, but its a cover and it covers the cushion and it looks pretty (I can see myself making lots of things with this fabric lol)

Last Saturday whilst i was on lunch i managed to sit down and start this drawing, continued it on Sunday and i think as finished as its going to be :) Golden eagle, in graphite.











Yesterday i managed to make something with fimo as well:

This is a Creeper from the game Minecraft, he's painted with acrylics and now sits on a necklace.

Pencil Case

This is a pencil case i made for my best friend, who after seeing my pencil case i made for myself wanted one. So here it is, made with nice strong exterior fabric, I'm getting the hang of putting zips in as well now :)

with spots inside!

Quick sketches

Are all i have time for now :( Here are some of those sketches:

 This is Betty the Bateleur eagle, i took this photo at a Jubilee celebration that had Falconry. Sketched this in the evening after the event. Various shades of graphite.

These are Eider ducks, King Eider, Spectacled Eider and Eider. On Cartridge paper with a light wash of watercolour.

I do have another painting, an acrylic of Betty but i need to take another photo of it as the first one doesn't do it any justice.
