Project 10: iPad Purse

I've been DYING for an iPad, and I'm planning on finally taking the plunge this week.  In celebration of the release of the iPad 2, and my joining of the iPad community, I made myself a new purse.  

I refuse to buy purses anymore, as I insist on function.  Those flimsy pockets and lack of organization make me crazy.  So I make my own. I get kinda lazy about it, though, and basically wait until my bag is falling apart before I make a new one.  It's way past due!

This one's about the size of an iPad, about 11 x 9 inches.  I hope it fits!

Project 9: 80s Cookies

For a 1980s themed Birthday party!  Awesome!

My costume, The Last Starfighter T-shirt included.  :)

Project 7: Camuy Caverns & Aricebo Observatory

 

New friends. :)

Project 6: El Yunque Rainforest, Puerto Rico

Project 8: Love Cookies

So these projects are officially out of order, but frankly, I'm just not that organized.  Here's my project for THIS week.   (I promise I'll get back to 6 & 7!)

There's a lot of love at work right now, some happy, some sad, so I thought I'd spread some of it around.  I made cookies for two co-workers who are going through some ups and downs.  One made his Broadway debut, hence the "broken legs," and the other lost a family member.

And some people didn't have such a great Valentine's Day, so for them:

Project 5: Old San Juan Photo Walk

Project 4: Patron Saint

Okay, okay, I know.  It's a little late.  But I've actually been collecting projects and really slacking on the blogging end of things.  I'm working on it.

This is my Patron Saint of Wet T-shirt Contests.  I began working on a sketchbook while on vacation in Puerto Rico (more of that to come) and wanted to do some sort of ironic religious art.  I certainly don't mean to offend by this, just so ya'll know.

I spent most of my time on the hands, as I usually really suck at them.  And I was experimenting with colored pencils, which I generally don't like.  And I still don't.  But here she is.

Project 3: Breakfast Cookies

Well, project number 3 is a bit sad.  I really like the idea of breakfast cookies (the idea isn't entirely my own), but my execution was pretty poor.  I even had a friend helping!  Ah well.  Project 3 is unfinished.  I ran out of time.

But next week will be full of projects, so hopefully I can redeem myself.  It's sad that I already need redemption on week 3.  Sigh.  Such is life.
