I am so close to finishing my one-shoe-a-day project - it's queued up almost to the end of the year! I only have 4 more designs to complete!

Here's all the roller skate/roller blade designs I've done this year. If you want to see all the designs so far, you can go to 365shoes.tumblr.com

I was looking through old sketchbooks to get ideas for my next embroidery project and found this absolute banger of a drawing that I apparently never scanned or uploaded. From 2010

We got to the dog park super early this morning - the place was empty and Pancake LOVED it. She truly wants to be the only girl in the world
