I made a custom backpack shaped like a spider for a friend. It came out pretty cute!

031209 :: Devil and Angel Custom Photo Album
Here’s a custom photo album Surrelic had me make for his friend’s birthday ::
The inspiration picture Eric gave me was of an angel with a demon's reflection in water, so I made a reversible album
Lots of different fabrics, machine- and hand-stitching, and paint
Oh yeah, there are beads in there too
Inside has creepy flesh-tone fake leather, perfect for writing a delightfully horrific birthday note on :)

Custom Skull and Tentacle Purse :: 2008
Custom-made purse with pirate skull lining! Front flap velcro’s closed. I painted the background and tentacles w/ watered down fabric paint, then zigzagged the fabric skull on top. Yarn is hand-sewn to outline the skull, and the suction cups were hand-sewn as well.

| Here are some of my favorite ancient creations that I have pictures of: | |
 |
I made this one when I was 17 out of a rad black and red cape my great-aunt made me for Halloween when I was a kid, and I used black spiderweb lace over it. It’s reversible! I made it w/out a pattern, and altered it hundreds of times to get a perfect fit. Then never wore it… |
 |
Made this totally kick ass shirt in 2006, which was later ripped off by some chick who started selling super cheap imitations of it on her website :( |
 |
This was made out of another cannibalized Halloween costume - the purple fabric came from an awesome witch/faerie dress I used to wear all the time when I was a kid. It says “zombie” out of scraps on the side. |
 |
I really like to make stuff with attached collars…
The off-white stripes were made out of some fabric that was used as wrapping paper from one of my birthdays a couple years prior. The lace was my great-grandma’s…she also was a seamstress :) |
 |
I made this custom purse as a present for a family member. She loved the show Invader Zim, so I made a purse with hand-sewn Gir on both sides (he’s in defense mode on the back). |
| eh, there are more ancient designs on my flickr account, here. | |
