2017 Year in Review
It’s that time of the year again… time to see what I accomplished this year, what I didn’t get to, and what I did instead of doing the things I said I was going to do. So last year I said my goals for 2017 were: 1. Georgian Belle – as I said above, finish it up for Visioncon. Did…

Every weekend should be a 4 day weekend
What a nice weekend. We barely did anything. Thanksgiving day we got up and headed to family lunch. I curled my hair overnight and it looked cute for a couple of hours.

Really I don’t know why I’m concerned about…

What a stupid snow day
It’s not really a snow day. Last week they said, between Mon-Tues, we could possibly get between 3-6in of snow! Well we got none. Then out of nowhere this morning comes sleet and snow. Not a lot. But enough it delayed me going to work for 2 hours until the roads were clear. I was hanging out on the couch,…

new costume tags
Well I made some new tags on my side-menu there so I figured I ought to make a post to go with them… and updates on what I’m working on. 1. Silver Elf I haven’t touched this in a year. Still can’t decide what to do with the sleeves. 2. Elsa I’ve gotten some fabric samples and picked up a…

2013 Year in Review
2013 on its surface looks like I was a lazy bum on the sewing front this year. So, first, let’s look back at what I said I wanted to accomplish in 2013: Romana I Yes! I actually did this one! Yay! an Edwardian dress No. I did a ton of planning for it, got fabric samples, and then decided it…
