After MONTHS of grueling work I've finally done it! The Rainbow Star blanket is finally finished!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I know I can't quite believe it myself. It took way longer than I originally anticipated and the blanket is ENORMOUS! I'm not even sure the actual measurements. I know I can cocoon myself in it with no problem and I'm a bigger girl if you've noticed by my photos. This blanket could easily fit a queen sized bed. I'm very happy with how it turned out. </div>

I apologize due to the massive size of the blanket it was difficult to get a good picture of it. I'm going to get some help and see if I can get a picture of the full blanket to post next time. I can't believe how awesome it turned out. Because of the large holes around the stars it isn't too heavy when placed over another blanket. It is just right. I love this star pattern and intend to do some more things with it. Between my internship and classes I've not had much time to work on projects. I'm so happy that this one is finally finished! </div>

I have very sensitive skin and most products just don't do much to help. I've been using clinique's system but its so very expensive and I just can't afford it anymore. If you guys have got any opinions on this product or any other (reasonably priced) products for acne control....help your girl out! Let me know! </p>

<br />
this year, *figers crossed* i will be working at kennywood's phantom fright nights as a special effects makeup artist. so. excited. and with this new job title comes the opportunity to dress up after doing everyone else's makeup and scaring folks in and around the park for the rest of the evening. soooooo not only do i get to do makeup, get paid for it and be awesome, but i get to do my own makeup and scare people and get paid for it! yay! i've been planning my costumes already and i've done the preliminary sketches for the costumes and plan on starting my sewing with in the next few weeks. i thought you guys would enjoy seeing them...so here ya go!!<br />

not the best photos, i know. apologies, apologies. but you get the basic idea. the one on the left is a zombie alice in wonderland and the one of the right is little red riding hood after her encounter with the wolf. its gonna be amaze-balls!!! so in addition to sewing and doing special effects on my self, i also will be doing a bit of fashion makeup along with it on myself. here comes that recent purchase i was talking about....i plan on doing some very dark eye makeup and i really wanted some nice black eyeshadow. i went to ulta and checked out some of the expensive brand, urban decay, two face, ulta brand...they had some nice shades, and i liked 3 that i found BUT they were wayyyyyyy way too much. $18 for an once of shadow. too much. i decided to check out the internets. i found <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/noellabeautyworks?ref=seller_info">noella beauty works</a> on <a href="http://www.etsy.com/?ref=si_home">etsy</a>, they have lovely shades in natural mineral makeup and i found 2 shades that i really like. so i got em'<br />

Hello there guys and dolls!<o:p></o:p></div>

Don’t be
alarmed, I never forgot about you lot. Though, some of you may not realize who
I am. Allow me to formally introduce myself. I’m Jessi. You’ll see my profile
above along with the wonderful Holly you know so well and the also elusive
Amanda. (See that's me> you remember, the one known for crocheting?)<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: white;">Do forgive my prolonged absence. Life gets in the way
sometimes. Graduate school consumed my life. Then in March I had to have
surgery on my gallbladder. </span><span style="background-color: white;"> </span><span style="background-color: white;">Over the past
few months I’ve returned to crafting and after a conversation with Holly felt
encouraged to return and I hope you will be happy to have me.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Now that we are reacquainted, let’s move on to
the fun part of this post. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
What exactly have I been up to craft-wise? Well, I've taken on a project of epic proportions!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I will say this project has grown massively out of control and taken on a life of its own. It's less a project and more a conquest. A beast I must vanquish, comparable to the 12 labors of Hercules! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
Ok. Perhaps I exaggerate. I'm certainly not dealing with a Hydra, however, this project did start out as something quite simple. </div>

It required that we learn something and relate to the class what learning theory best connected to our learning process. All the technical mumbo jumbo aside, I jumped on the opportunity to bring a bit of crafting back to my daily life. I had always wanted to learn to crochet a star! Now was my chance. And learn I did! </span><span style="background-color: white;">Now the question was, what do I do with a crochet star? Now I'm sure many of you could have thought of a simpler solution. One that would not require intensive time to complete. Attaching it to a hat or creating a hat out of it would have been simple and are still crafts I intend to complete. My mind, whether it be that I enjoy a challenge, or inflicting suffering on myself decided it would be great if I could turn the stars into squares. </span></div>

She's the one who taught me how to crochet and with her help we made simple work of devising a pattern to turn the star into a square. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Once I'd achieved making a square I had to decide what to make with the squares. That is when the brilliant idea struck me to make a blanket. That is when I created the design below. </div>

I'm not even certain of its final measurements. I've estimated that once it is done it will be at least 8x6 feet if not slightly larger. I'm insane I know. There are 80 squares total. I've completed a total of 65. I have 50 of them that still need bordered with white. Then I'll need to attach them together and crochet a border of white around the blanket. Once I've finished the blanket I've several ideas for some hats with star motifs. I can't wait to see how they turn out. As always I love to hear from you guys so if you have any ideas, things you'd like to see, requests, or commissions please feel free to contact me. Just drop a line in the comments below. I'm glad to be back and I can't wait to share more of what I've been working on with you guys. <div>

<br />
for the first jukebox sunday, i'd like to introduce you to a lovely lady i stumbled upon during a late night youtube raid. her name is holly walker and she's quite amazing. enjoy.<br />

i've chopped off all my hair! i decided a few months ago that i was going to cut my hair short for work this summer so that i could stay cool out in the heat. well, i'm one of those crazy people who's motto always seems to be 'go big or go home'....well i guess this time it was go short or...ya know! its a big change for me, i've never had my hair this short before. its grown out a good bit since i've cut it, so its not as bad as it was. not that it didn't look nice, it was just a little uncomfortable for me. i'm getting used to it now. BUT! i did do something good with my hair, instead of just throwing it out, i decided to donate it to <a href="http://www.locksoflove.org/"><span style="background-color: #ffe599;">locks of love.</span> </a>i felt that it was something that just made sense. if i'm going to get it cut then i shouldn't just get rid of it and waste it. it should go to some one that could do good with it. i feel very strongly about this cause, and i hope that you guys take a minute and check it out. i donated 19 inches to the cause but their minimum is 10", so if you got the length and you're wanting to do something good,<span style="background-color: #ea9999;"> this is very simple and does so much good! </span></div>

if you've read my last post, i had mentioned that i've been taking a break from the business....well the girls have too. we haven't done a show since last last november or december i think. a few weeks ago we did! we partook in the <a href="http://www.wyep.org/">WYEP Summer Music Festival </a>and had a blast! we didn't make much but i think it was a nice slow ride back into the swing of things! we had a bunch of new products and colleen decided to come along for the ride and sell her lovely things and i'm so very glad she did!!! hopefully, within the next few months we'll be doing a few more shows and i'll of coarse be taking photos at those too to share.<br />

hey guys, i swears i'm not dead! i've just been taking a break from the internet lately. i should have written something explaining this before just disappearing but the whole thing just got a little too stressful for me and i just HAD to get out for a bit. i've been missing the blog and all of you. if you've been waiting on things from me, i'm so very sorry i haven't gotten them to you. i'm not sure when i'm going to be able to, just to be honest. <br />
<br />
so let me explain the disappearance of holly....if you have your own blog, i think you'll understand this a bit better. if not, try to follow along the best you can.<br />
when you own a blog, a business, holding down a full time job (that isn't your business), dealing with life and are like me, dealing with the result of some supremely heavy family stress/ drama/ insanity (the death of my mother last year)....things can feel like they're kind of closing in on you. so i thought the best way to destress my life was to remove a few of these stressers. so i took a step back from the blog and the business for a few months to clear my head and get back to some sort of normal. the constant pressure of having to 'keep up with the blogging jones' is really heavy. you see these people in the blogiverse who's blogs are absolutely beautiful and amazing with these perfect blog posts and when you're just a little not-so-well known blog trying to keep up it becomes stressful. i know i've written about this before but i guess its something that i just have to come to terms with. i've just got to learn to be my own self and write just for fun and not for the page views. and i think this break that i've taken has given my perspective on the whole thing.<br />
<br />
SO! i'm back. but i will tell you this. this blog is not going to be posting every single day. might not even be every week. but i'm going to be getting back into it slowly and trying to bring you things that i find interesting and fun. i'll be revamping the look here and there throughout the summer and fall. and hopefully, once i figure out a nice flow to this thing again, i'll be able to bring the blog back into full swing!!<br />
<br />
hopefully you'll welcome me back with open hearts and eyes! you know i've miss you guys!<br />
