job portfolio

I realized today that I have not updated with my job portfolio website.

Anyone who wants to see what I have been up to academically and professionally. I designed the HTML, graphics, and content for the entire site.

which buttons do you want?


I highly recommend Coraline, and then read the book--or read the book and then watch the movie. Both are equally enjoyable. I will post my final reaction to the book when I finish it.

Yay for buttons! I'm into creating softies right now (even though mine are not very good, yet) and I've decided that all of my softies will have button eyes. My major project that I want to start working on is a Coraline doll.

my first softie


While staying at Melinda's, she gave me a sewing book called Stitched in Time. It had a little blue horse called "Softie." This intrigued me, and so I started looking online for different ideas for softies. I tried to make the horse, but I am definitely not very skilled YET in hand-sewing.

So, I found this simple owl pattern, and decided to try something simple before I dived into the horse.

This was my first softie. I hope there will be many more. The stitching on the top was not too professional, but hey, it's a first time thing, right?

Any tips?
