interview with me about the <a href="http://rosemarytravale.ca/blog/scribblenauts-plush/" rel="nofollow">Scribblenauts Plush</a> I made!

A swatch works out to be 8 x 8 inches, not very big but there’s still a lot you can do with a piece of fabric that size! I got a swatch of the upholstery weight fabric to test how it would hold up as a book cover. So here are the two tiny books I made for jotting down notes. They are just over 3 x 2.75 inches big, and they have 40 pages of mixed papers in them. I always like to have some kind of book in my bag to jot down little notes and stuff on and that is exactly what I plan to use these things for!</p> </div> <div class="clearfix"></div> </div> <div class="post-85 post hentry category-craft"> <span class="postmetadata"><a href="http://rosemarytravale.ca/blog/category/craft/" title="View all posts in craft" rel="category tag">craft</a> — <a href="http://rosemarytravale.ca/blog/scribblenauts-plush/#comments" title="Comment on Scribblenauts Plush">17 Comments</a></span><br/> <small><span class="date">13</span><br />Sep 09 </small> <h2><a href="http://rosemarytravale.ca/blog/scribblenauts-plush/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to Scribblenauts Plush">Scribblenauts Plush</a></h2> <div class="entry"> <p>It’s been a while now since I’ve done <a onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.flickr.com/photos/rosered/sets/72157594335228317/');" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/rosered/sets/72157594335228317/">any video game related crafting,</a> so I thought I should change that!
