Spoonflower recently did a free swatch day where you could order two swatches of any weight fabric at no cost! 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!

Scribblenauts Plush
It’s been a while now since I’ve done any video game related crafting, so I thought I should change that! Next week Scribblenauts comes out for the Nintendo DS and it looks AMAZING! You write pretty much anything and it appears in the game! Then you use those things that appear to help the main character Maxwell solve puzzles and stuff. It looks so much fun! I’ve been following news on this game for a while. When I saw that Super Punch was having a little Scribblenauts themed contest, it gave me the idea to try to make a plush Maxwell along the lines of the Coraline doll I made with my pal Mike last March. So here it is!
He stands at 14 inches tall from soles of his sculpey shoes to the tip of his red rooster hat.
I also made a tiny spiral bound notebook and pencil for him to carry around!
His gloves are made of plastic vinyl, his clothes cotton, his body is canvas and linen, his rooster hat is fleece and the star is foam.
I was really happy with how his headphones turned out. I made them with the bottoms of 25 cent machine capsules!
Thanks for looking!
This Maxwell plush doll is for sale for $150 US plus shipping. Feel free to send me an email if you are interested in owning him! travaleATgmail.com

Milk Tab Notebooks
Made a bunch of these for the Telephone City Art & Craft Show coming up on the 22nd.
Made out of almost entirely salvaged materials, 20 pages in each book, and the covers are made from dental record sheets!
