The time has come to talk of many things, of shoes, and ships, and sealing wax, of undersea monkeys and glittery things.

Oh boy… this post is long overdue.  Life has been a bit… overwhelming as of late.  But so it goes… and, at long last, another update!  And it's more birthday presents (really, really late ones…) this time, for my littlest sister (she's 6 now).  I like to call her a Sea Monkey.  I'm not quite sure where that one came from, but then again, I'm not quite sure where most of the things that pop into my head come from.

Anyway, I fashioned a brand new monster in her honor: ZeeZee the Sea Monkey Monster (it kind of has a ring to it… right? right???).  She is the princess of alllll the Sea Monkey Monsters (there are quite a few of them, if you didn't know).

I also decided to use this as a reason to embark on one of my many new adventures: learning how to sew felt plushies.  Overall, I think she came out pretty successfully.  My seams definitely need some work, but I'm attempting to transfer my loose, slightly messy line work into my sewing… I'll get there eventually.

And one last thing… another new monster is in the works!
