Today we went for a walk along the river. The ice was cracking up near the bridge. Then in the evening we went to a friend’s house for Charles to do website programming and I watched Hyperdrive on my iPad! Fun day!

Sewing outside on the loveliest day of the year!
Making yet another blouse! This one is light pink chiffon with pin tucks on the front. I’m worried it’s going to turn out weird!
I was inspired by this gorgeous blouse from DreamV… I would have bought it but it’s sold out!
Same chiffon type fabric, but my pleas are much bigger. I guess I don’t want everyone seeing my underwear? My chiffon is quite sheer so I made the pleats without gaps in between.
This time of year is so lovely as its not too hot to sit outside in the shade.
Cute fabric I’m making a blouse with!
I had such trouble with the pin tucks, you wouldn’t believe! All sorted now. I’m using a pattern from a Deco Alice A La Mode magazine, which turned out to be a mistake because I can’t read Japanese and they hardly have instructions anyway!
New dress
Terrible photo! iPads don’t take such good photos… Especially at 11pm in my mum’s hands!
Emily Temple Cute, closet print jumperskirt. Dresses on a dress. Bought today at a local Lolita swap meet!
Yo dawg, I heard you like dresses. So we put a dress on your dress so you can dress while you dress!
More pics soon! I’ve been sewing this past week and have already made 2.5 skirts and half a blouse, and have started planning a cute dress and chiffon blouse! SUCH FUN.
Tis the season for making wishlists
Okay so I’m going to stop being lame and start blogging again. Now semester is over (yay Honours done!) I can actually start thinking about nice bloggy things again!
Like my wishlist! It’s nearly Christmas, which is a perfect time to let the whole world know what you like! So I’m updating my wishlist with a bunch of things. First, the modcloth things! Click on the pictures to go to the product pages.
This plum wedge is gorgeous, I love the ankle strap!
This dress is pretty different from my usual style, but I really like how it drapes on the bodice. I also like how it has deer on it!
This is a lovely sandal. Unfortunately they don’t have it in this emerald green colour, they only have it in a brighter blue-green and a red. I’d love this green though. I’m into green right now. My school uniform was green so it’s taken a long time for me to wear green again. I’ve been out of school, what, six years now?
