Weekend Blitz

This weekend I made a bag. Yes, a bag out of plastic bags...don't ask. It took me like 6 hours to make! I just felt the need to make something and a bag seemed simple and straightforward. Without trying, I managed to make it the most nonfunctional bag possible, but right now that doesn't really matter. I like the aesthetic that came from it and it motivated me to find lots of other sources for plastic bags. I collected a bunch from Whole Foods, also going to Kroger to get them out of their collection bins, I put out collection bins and flyers in the IP studios, I am collecting from my mom's co-workers, and tomorrow I will go to the A&D office to see if I can put a bin in there too. This should set me up with a good stash of bags to work from. When I iron the bags together, I like to keep the same type of bag together. The end piece looks much more refined if I control the bag pattern more. Live and learn.

Now, I am working on my Review presentation and I really don't know what it should be. I'm going to look on ctools for some guidance. If there isn't any, then I guess I will definitely need some help tomorrow in class. I'm a little freaked out about this review, I don't think it is going to go well. eeek!

Also, you may notice I changed the name of my blog. My dad told me the other day that he named me Clio because he felt it would make an excellent brand name. So, I'm trying it out for size.
