I just wanted to updated this section. I haven't done anything recently. I have been dealing with my emotional trauma and having serious pain issues in my hands. Since this hurts my hands doing it too long anyway, there was no way I was going to try to do any of it with my hands hurting before I even started on anything. I have so much that I haven't finished and need to get back into. I am wondering if I already have arthritis......if I do, that means it is going to be a painful hobby to keep doing. I also wonder if maybe my hands hurt because I stopped doing it.
Anyway some of the things I have started, halloween stuff (pumpkin, black cat) a butterfly for me, I made one for someone else and sold it already for Christmas (he wanted it for his girlfriend) I also have a ton more ideas that I need to get completed. Someone wants the Taco Bell logo bell, someone wants an elephant, I was going to try to figure out how to do a dolphin but I am not so sure anymore (personal reasons), flowers, other animals, flags, state shapes, Christmas stuff, more jewelry. Just so many ideas but lacking the enthusiasm lately to do any of it on top of my hands already hurting.

yea, I am going to take a break tonight, and then I will get started on them, I will probably try to make them kind of small so I can get them finished faster.

Stage one nearly completed except glue and trimming edges, next, add ears and spots for it to look like a cow.

OK, I told her, realistically, I really don't think I can get 20 of these done in the amount of time I was given and she understands, she wants me to finish the one I am working on and she will take that one and to not worry about the rest.

That is nice of her ButterflyLady , it can be hard to judge how long something will take.

especially if I have never made it before, basicly designing it as I go kind of thing is not easy.....

I can understand that, all you can do is to compare it to something similar.

but atleast she is a good friend of mine that I have known for like 10 years now (atleast) and understood. I told her right from the start it may be cutting it too close to get that many done in the time frame she gave me.

I have added the "spots" to the cow, now I need to add the ears, bow, eyes and nostril holes. I will post a picture of it in it's current state in a little while.
