2/21

I got a major hair cut. because my hair was damaged from all the years of dying my hair. I took down braids took about 7 hours. I went to fantastic sams, and had my hair pulled, blow dried, and flat ironed for like 3 hours.

Finished

I wanted to make a lining but didn't have enough fabric. so made a slip.

 i used the midriff and skirt from this pattern

OK so I've been wanting to make my own clothes forever. I've tried and tried and tried. me and my sewing machine don't always see eye to eye. and i some how can mess up the easiest patterns. I've made a skirt and a dress they didn't fit or were lumpy somehow.

I've been longly looking at things on crafter.org . and i looked at a few patterns i wanted to give it a try this was the best skirt and easy tut i found. maybe it has something to do with the fact that i find her hot but i like this video

I made the skirt part and i didn't have enough fabric. so the skirt was like really short. I'm not sure if these two fabrics should be mixes. they might be different materials , I'm not one who knows these things. i got my fabric at Joann's.

i made it and it fits. oh the joy i felt until i realized that its way to short. i cant wear it with out tights under it. i think i might see if my little sister wants it. I'm not sure what her size or style is.

so next time I'm going to try to make it longer. i have some holiday fabric that i didn't end up using for my swap so maybe i will make a skirt with it

hi a

So it all started as me just wanting to get some caution tape from someone who seemed nice. then it turned into a blood bath. ok not really. but the first items that i made for her she flat out said that she didn't like them. i was crushed i spent all say making them



she didn't like the fact that i didn't sew them. she found them to be poorly made. i mean i could have put a little more time into it. but i didn't feel as thought what i was getting in return was that expensive so yea. but i got some tips from craftster on how to make them better next time. but they wont be giving to anyone out side of my family.

so i made her a toy that was also on her list



which made toy ask for a yoshi. i still have yet to find a free pattern i found one for 7.00$ maybe if i plan on making a ton of them or giving the pattern to other people.

i'm making gifts for jessica's birthday shes turning 21. i'm giving her my knit mini, because she wears things like that. so im making her matching gloves. she asked for gloves. and toby doesnt want me to work on anything else. but thats not how i work. i don't stay on one project at a time. i made the gift box yesterday



the gift box is made from strips of newspaper. i weave them together and tape the edges all together. i really like the flip top. i hope the box can hold all the stuff. maybe i should tape the whole thing. i don't know it only needs to last one day.

i also finished some crochet food. i started them months ago i had all the piece. sometimes i just don't like to finish thing. i added pins because its a pin cushion. and toby stabbed him self with it, so i took the pins out,i'll find some beads for sprinkles later.



oh yea toby is knitting again last time he only did it for two days. he has been at it for a week. he is making a gift for jessica, he just might finish it

stripes and eyes

i finished a few items lately. i put a few of them onto the site T for toby






speaking of T for the toby. he started his first T therapy. yay and because were so poor it only cost 30$ a visit.

i'm also working on learning to sew better. i picked up some books. and i started on my first skirt yesterday. i will post when i finish it.

also might be going out with james later :D
