More upsizing! Does she stop......

Awwwwwwwwwww.... Isn't he cute... He's the first thing I've made that I upsized to fill an A3 sheet on my new printer. :)

I snaffled him from http://www.papercraftmuseum.com/dragon/

Very easy to make and lots of fun at double size. Soooo much easier to do. Next is tomb raider at 1 metre... yeah, I'm gonna do it! I warn you... mwaaa ha ha ha ha

King size!

Hi all. Well, here are the promised pictures of the St Bernard finished. I know, I took for ever - but at least I actually finished one! LOL

Front on. With my dogs. I had to throw food out to make them go near it! LOL The one in front is Angel - the mother of the other. She's a cross Blue Healer/Lab.

The kitten who made herself at home at our place coming to check out this monster that smells funny.. XD

Upsizing paper models

It's been a while since I posted anything, but sometimes real life gets in the way of fun. :P  Anyway, my latest project is to upsize a dog from the Canon web site.  The photos show my husband wearing the St Bernard's head that I've so far managed to get together. it was fun trying to cut out the parts on my little table, and not knock over the glue pot!  The other fun part, was gluing the parts together from upsizing.  This dog should end up very large - very close the real thing, I think, if the author of the pattern has kept it in proportion.  My biggest problem isn't going to be how to support it to stop it collapsing... It's finding a place for it to live once I finish it....

Sewing / dressmaking sizing charts from the 60's

For those of us that sew as well as glue, here is a sizing chart from the 1960's. You can download it from xxxxxx 

EDITED.....

Due to possibly getting caught in the copyright infringement roundabout, I've done some research and discovered that Simpitiy actually has an updated sizing chart downloadable straight from their web site, free of charge!  Check it out here
