A pirate who occasionally forgets how to use a keyboard, apparently. After at least a week, finally, a new post!
I’ve made little progress in the wedding dress field. I have the crinoline pieces cut, sitting, mocking in the corner of my living room. I’ve come up with my share of excuses, too: I don’t have the right needles. I don’t know what to do next. I’m worried about ruining the fabric. Oops, I seem to have cut my right hand off.
But no more! Tomorrow I dive head first into the world of satin and poof!
In other news, I have a few new items available in my Etsy shop. Like a pirate vest!
I love this thing! As usual, it is made with upcycled fabric and trims. The buckles, even, are rescued from an old pair of pants. Its kind of adjustable, as the straps have three hole choices, and its fitted besides. I could totally storm the seven seas in this.
And another pair of bloomers:
These are a bit simpler, as well as a bit shorter, than my others. Nice though, and pretty easy to wear.
I haven’t been as productive lately. Aah! The Olympics!!! Oh my god! Michael Phelps is my freaking hero, and I don’t even like swimming. Oh, and I made thirty tiny bags to send to a lovely woman in Idaho, who will be putting them in her shwag bags for an upcoming craft show. If you’re in Bellevue, Idaho on Labor Day weekend, check out the Bellevue Labor Day celebrations in City park. Great fun to be had by all.
Until next time! Which will be sooner than last time, I promise.
