This weekend Arielle and I decided to take it easy and relax on our subtropical island by staying indoors. :) Ok, so that might not always be true, but for this weekend, it was. I spent part of my weekend putting together the three models pictured above. They are simple models that I picked up in the candy section on the island. Pictured above you will see the 1980s version of Optimus Prime on the far right, the animated version of Optimus Prime from a recent Transformer cartoon in the middle. Finally, the one on the far left is Star Saber. Star Saber was unknown to me or at least I had forgotten his character. For more information on Star Saber, here is his wiki page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Saber
Shown below is an action shot of Arielle working on her tie purses. She was busy working on them while I was putting my models together. Unfortunately, the sewing machine she is pictured using no longer does an accurate zigzag stitch so we purchased a new sewing machine seen at the other end of the table. So now, it looks like she has an assembly line going with one machine set up for straight stitch and the other setup for the zigzag.
