Hello there. I'm chebe*, a complusive maker, a modern crafter, a geeky computer scientist, a lover of music, and absorber of sci-fi, fantasy, and horror. This journal is not personal in the tell-you-everything-about-my-life way. It's a log, a record of things I've made, tried, and plan on giving a go.
If I follow you don't feel the need to follow me back. Also, please don't be offended if I don't follow you back; I feel strange reading someone elses deepest darkest thoughts when I'm not offering my own in return. Especially if we haven't even been introduced.
Pseudonymity is promoted. If you don't have a Dreamwidth account learn to love OpenID. Anonymous comments are enabled, but screened, for the purpose of allowing people I know in real-life to comment. But, if you don't identify yourself it is unlikely to be unscreened.
Be that as it is, I am quite friendly, and welcome comments and feedback, don't be scared :)
* Pronounced chi(rhymes with see) bee.

These are some of my on-going projects (images are clickable and link to relevant post). This blog is about these, as well as other random and more disparate activities, including; embroidery, adding LEDs to clothing, and wearable soft circuits with conductive thread.
 Gertie runs a fantastic retro fashion and sewing website. She is running a Sew-Along started back in December, targeted at beginners, in which I and a couple of friends am participating. See posts with this tag. |

 See other skirts. Working mainly from Sew What! Skirts book. |
See other beading posts. Working mainly from The Beader's Bible book.
Another on-going project: Finding out all the (fashion) fabric shops in Dublin. If any ever add the ability to purchase online I'll add a '*', but don't hold your breath.
