sf stylin'

last night we convened the sf craft gathering, and i learned that the members of this crew have some special skills. this past week, chris decided to make curtains... not just your average, flowy curtains, but the kind that have small dowels that fold the fabric when a string is pulled. he sketched out the design--which was crucial, because mechanics are involved--used old curtain fabric, re-sewed them, stained dowels a dark color, used eye hooks, and created some really fine curtains. rather than sewing the dowels inside a layer of fabric, he placed them on the outside, which looks quite nice.

chris spent last night making valentines with paper bags and cool pink paper.

the other member, greg, took a metal tin and decoupaged arty images from magazines to the inside, in an effort to make a sweet little spot for his roommates' many remote controls, and also to make room for a small plant.

these dudes are crafty.

what did i do? i ripped out the capelet to fix my twisting issue, and started again. :)
