It's a dress

So I got this dress. I am confident it will function properly in the harsh, arid desert.

Brass Coil Earrings on classy fish-hooks



This Thing

I made U-shaped pins for this one to see how they would behave when linked up; they made a sine wave. (links to bigger)


Here it is on:

Weird Pulled Canes of Glass
This makes a tiny glass insect clicking noise with every motion of the head or neck.


How it would look if you were trapped or just visiting inside a bottle of Bombay gin

...provided your bottle was inside my house.

The Strap

While ensickened, I learned how to crochet a basic block from the internet. Didn't have any yarn, so I used 5 strands of sewing thread together and made this sick ass strap for my camera. It's 4' by 2".



I sewed a backing of silk onto it to keep the shape, and for reversability.

The thread-into-yarn turned out to be a pretty good racket. To keep it together and untangled, I took a block of foam, jammed 5 bamboo skewers upright in it to be spindles, and put each spool of thread on one. Fixed the foam to a surface. Drawing on the multiple line while crocheting was just like pulling yarn from a skein.



UPDATE:
Well, I went ahead and made a bag for the camera. You know — to attach the strap to.





UPDATE #2:
The camera bag goes drinkin'.
The blur to the far right is Scott.

SICK

I am sick. Good heavens, I am so, so sick.

This is the most my throat has ever hurt.

So sick.
