Big fat nothin'

Elephants still naked?
yep!

Dollies still disjointed in plastic bags?
yep.

disembodied softie heads still impaled on knitting needles ?

yep.
That's right - nothing to see here folks, move along - nothing to see.

  19. There's simething very spooky going on at your place...those fleshy limbs (?) in plastic were particularly unnerving. As for those impaled heads...hmmm.
    On a different note I am SO sorry to have missed you at the market the other day, what a bummer! Hope you had a fun day and hopefully we will cross paths another time x

  20. Hmmmmm... naked elephants on a sewing machine?!? There's a site that is not seen very often.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Ha - call that nothing?! At least you have heads on your knitting sticks! Mine are bare. Nor do I have bags of arms and legs to show for my nothingness or indeed a naked pachyderm.

    You'll have to try harder than that if you want to impress us with your inactivity ;-)

  22. Your sense of humor made me laugh. Thank you for the smile. I often feel like I'm accomplishing nothing or at least very little. Here's wishing for a productive week for you.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Ok...since no one else seems to have asked....are you planning to sell the pattern for your incredible elephants?....Naked or not I WANT ONE....Your productivity is amazing...You have inspired me beyond measure lately....all that as you claim to have done nothing....

  24. Dolly limbs in plastic bags?

    Next we'll be seeing whole bodies wrapped up in bits of carpet and dumped by the side of the road!

    Don't go there Jodie!

  27. I love MIchelle's comment - CSI Softie. Very funny.

    Given the state of your craft.... I'm scared to ask... where are your children!

    ReplyDelete
  28. Those heads are kind of freaking me out

    ReplyDelete
  29. tsk... tsk.... Miss Jodie.
    Pavlova is peeking over my shoulder and is shaking her head in disbelief - where are their clothes????

    You must have had a great long weekend Jodie. Hopefully you will make it back to the craft room this week.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Oh, Miss Jodie, even when you're not feeling well you make us laugh. I hope you're on the mend - the elephants look a bit embarrassed being naked and all.

    ReplyDelete
  35. love love love the green quilt! Still sulking about Sewjourn but got over it a bit being in NZ. Leaving Christchurch in the morning for home unfortunately. I think the max in Queenstown was about 5 so home is going to be warm!! Hope this doesn't mean you have been sick...just taking a blogging break?

    ReplyDelete
  36. That happens when you're a sicko....Are you any better?

    ReplyDelete
  37. LOL!!! You are a hoot, besides elephants don't really wear clothes at least not in Africa where I come from!!!

    ReplyDelete
  38. Jodie - you should be on stage! I would pay to watch your show! LOL... even your blog titles make me laugh, because I know there's going to be a punchline to follow.

    You're a crack up!

    I mean that in the nicest possible way... moving along...

  39. Geez Jodie, it's bloody freezing in Victoria at the moment would ya get those poor nekkid elephants a blanket at least?

    ReplyDelete
  40. Except it's kind of frightening to see all those unattached body parts -- there's something to see!

    ReplyDelete
  41. They're still cute whether they are unfinished, naked or disjointed! You are too funny!

  46. Hi Jodie, love those naked elephants. Are they a new pattern of yours. I would love to buy one if you sell them, so adorable. As for the disembodied ones, well I hope they can be brought to life soon.

    ReplyDelete
  47. The elephants might be naked but they look FANTASTIC. Hope you are feeling better.

  48. Personally I love naked elephants!

    ReplyDelete
  49. Oh, I HAVE to show this to the husbie. He thinks that I am the ONLY person in the world that have multiple unfinished projects around the house!!!

    The elephants look gorgeous - specially the little one who's looking right at the camera

  50. I am enjoying catching up on all my blog reading here - this one's a goodie. Though I do have to say the last photo is a bit gruesome in a Middle Ages off-with-their-heads-and-stick-em-on-stakes kind of way. Let that be a warning to all the other softies.

    Hope you are feeling better!

    ReplyDelete
  51. That impaled softies photo is very disturbing.

    ReplyDelete

    thea.
