Dresses and tresses.

  • I'm still set on the mullet. Er... Excuse me. Wullet. No one can stop me. Unless I have to get chemo for some weird reason and then I lose all my hair. Then I'll just get a WULLET WIG. And if they do not exist, then I will create them using only hair from the finest Arabian mountain goats, which also exist.
  • I made this dress a few weeks ago on my brand-spankin' new sewing machine.

{Heh. Reference to my last ranting post about senior pictures.} These lovely photographs were taken by my darling Gurmie, who is such. A. Doll.

Over and out with a hearty, riotous shout,

I am making this dress. I am making this dress. I don't care what you say. I am making this dress.

I vowed the last time that I watched this movie {with Teresius, of course} that I would find a way to replicate this dress. I have found a similar pattern to base it off of, I will add a casing and drawstring on the side {as pictured}. I will tighten the sleeves a bit. I will lengthen. All I need is money and to find the perfect striped fabric.... I will CONQUER!

Goodbye, Christmas break boredom. Pray I do not get pneumonia for the fourth year in a row.
That's all for now.

Thread-head.

Because I love sewing...... AND taking crappy pictures of myself, you get both wrapped up in the convenient little posts. Aw.

Frilly tee inspired by Maryn.


Yo-yo scarf.

It's so good to get back on the machines again!! I've really missed not having the use of a serger. Or pinking shears. Those are the life.

Some days we get crafty...

Hello, kiddies!

I made this shirt last Tuesday. It didn't fit me properly in the arms, {grumble} so today I altered it. This is my first attempt at shirt-makery.



Classic Jackie-O. style boat neckline. Baby's on the half tip!


I also made this bow-belt out of elastic inspired by a Vera Wang dress.

Enjoy.
