What I should be doing...
I did get some veggies in the freezer before they went south and I watch High School Musical 3 with the girl. I think Mr. Monkey (orange/brown) will be started tonight while I watch a chick flick.
And now a splash of color
I wish I could capture how bright these colors are in real life. Maybe I will play with lighting and my camera settings and try again another day.
Laptop sleeve
I was inspired by this http://blog.betzwhite.com/2008/08/sketchy-maclaptop.html But she knows how to use a sewing machine and her end product is much nicer.
Mine is hand sewn and is pretty good, IMO.
This was the first attempt. I liked the panels and I was proud of my work but it was too loose so they had to go.
Right now the screen is still blank because the lines weren't coming out right and I was really tired of putzing with it. I'm not sure if it is going to have lines or not by the time I have to leave. I think it is pretty cute even blank though lines would make it much better. I should have tried to add them before I sewed the panel in but if there is a hard way to do something I will certainly find it. I'll get a pic later of it on the laptop so you can get a better idea of it.
That's all for now, folks

p.s. Ok I needed to take pics for the other blog Sole Mate Toys so I went ahead and slipped the laptop in the sleeve for you. ;)
