Yeah I'm slack

Hmmm so yeah I know I'm slack.
It's been a couple of months since my last post.
A whole pile of thinsg are going on at present. Unfortunately I can't really talk about any of them here so we'll have to make do with a bright fluffy post about a mermaid :).

So a couple of weeks ago now, I had some inspiration to make Miss Midget a mermaid. Had thought about going and seeing from designs were out there and for some reason I decided against this and decided to make my own (Yeah crazy lady here).

So below is what I have ended up with :)

My drawing to start making pattern

All cut out ready to sew

Getting there

Her face

All sewn up but something doesn't look right.
Her arms also could of been a bit wider :).

She needed a necklace.

So again if anyone stumbles upon this blog post and you want my pattern just feel free to email me :).

Now that I have made this one though, I'm thinking I might actually see what free patterns are out there.
I'm waiting to find something easy that won't take me to long that I could perhaps sell to make a bit of extra money to go to Australia with.

So far I've found these -

Problem with these ones is I'm picking I'm going to have to get a bit better on the sewing machine for them. I'll see what I can come up with. Will let you know if I end up making them or if I get to the point I can sell them :).
