So I can see you’ve made a Buh-fly and a robot. Both of which are really cute! If you’re venturing out into sewing machine land… I’ve got to pass on this great little tutorial I found at Lucky Beans – Simple Monster Softie (http://luckybeans.typepad.com/my_weblog/2008/06/the-crafty-crow-simple-monster-softie.html)
I was so inspired I made one myself… (http://brinabat.blogspot.com/2008/06/lavender-lovely-little-monster.html) I’m thinking I might pass it on to one of my girlfriends who has little ones for Christmas!
It was pretty fun to make and fairly easy really – when I added the skirt it became a bit more complicated… but not too bad.

Yeah. Amy played this album while I was in the room messing with my laptop. I think my brain broke at point when the gangsta rap was laid on top of the Hammond organ from “Whiter Shade of Pale.” I spent the rest of the album randomly screaming obscenities into the room as the “sound” part of my brain instantly recognized samples for which the other parts of my brain couldn’t “look up” the title and artist. I was much better at hearing a tiny sample and singing the tune (or beat) from there than I was at naming.

From the description that Adam gave, I expected it to be a mess. I’m like Stephen and typically don’t like mashups, but these just work.

Not to mention, that’s the coolest “Young Turks” has EVER SOUNDED. That’s been stuck in my head for two days now.
