I ♥ Robots

Categories: For boys / Für Jungs, News / Aktuelles, Robots/Roboter

We all love robots – don’t we?
Of course everyone likes WALL-E, R2-D2, C3PO, Number 5… most boys are crazy about the Transformers, Lego-Mindstorms, Lego-Bionicle and things like that. My son owns some really cool robot shirts (and I like them much more than those pirates-skull-bones-shirts – I don’t like dead stuff on kids. But maybe I’m just superstitious :-) ).
So: we really need more robot stuff. What about a really cool robot ribbon which you can use for many, many things? You could sew it on a t-shirt and create a cool robot-shirt, take a boring bag and …

After a long, long journey they all finally arrived: “Charlotte’s Angels” and “Cats and the City” (I will write something about the Cats soon and show some more photos) – and they all love Los Angeles :-)
You can see them now in the gallery Ghetto Gloss and you also can buy them there soon.

Nach einer langen, langen Reise kamen sie schließlich alle an: “Drei Engel für Charlotte” und die “Cats and the City” (über die werde ich demnächst mehr berichten und Fotos zeigen). Und was soll ich sagen: Sie lieben Los Angeles :-)

Little Legs/Beinchen

Categories: News / Aktuelles, Work in Progress

Yes, legs… many, many legs for my new project that has to be ready very soon. I’m a bit stressed out right now and I think I will be really happy when I’m finished. Don’t get me wrong: I love this project and it’s really special in many ways… but SO many little legs? Seriously: My dreams at night are all about many, many little, little legs…

Ja, Beinchen… viele, vielen Beinchen nähte ich für mein aktuelles Projekt, das ganz bald fertig sein muss. Ich bin momentan ziemlich im Stress und ich bin echt froh, wenn ich endlich fertig …

Volksfaden

For a special project I needed new fabrics. (I will tell you more about that soon :-) )
I really love the fabric shop Frau Tulpe – but I wanted to try something new this time.

So I bought the first time at a online-fabric-shop I didn’t know so far  which is based in Berlin, Germany – and got AMAZING fabrics!

Check it out: Volksfaden.de! It’s absolutely awesome.
The stock is based in an old mansion near the Berlin Wannsee and run by an extremely nice lady. Have a look at her blog too.

Angelic bodily parts/ Engelshafte Körperteile

Categories: Dolls / Puppen, News / Aktuelles, Work in Progress

Since I found my absolute favorite TV Show – “Dexter” – I have a secret affectation for human bodily parts. The difference between Dexter Morgan and me is: The bodies I am working on are in parts first – and his when he finished his work :-) .

So here are some shots of angelic bodily parts which I really like.

Seit ich meine absolute Lieblingsfernsehserie – “Dexter” – gefunden habe, habe ich eine heimliche Vorliebe für menschliche Körperteile. Der Unterschied zwischen Dexter Morgan und mir ist: Die Körper, an denen ich arbeite, sind anfangs noch in Einzelteilen – …

Charlotte’s Angels in L.A.

Categories: Dolls / Puppen, News / Aktuelles, Shows/Ausstellungen

Yay, the Super Plush show is just over – and my missing dolls arrived In L.A. :-)
Well, it’s a good thing that DHL didn’t really lose them – but just couldn’t find them for some time.

I learned that I will NEVER ever use DHL again. The worst thing wasn’t the fact that they couldn’t find my package that was send in a special and expensive way – the worst thing was the way they dealt with the problem. It was literally as if their left hand didn’t know what the right hand was doing and everyone blamed someone …
