Snow and a Costume

This is what we woke up to here in K-Town today... it was my poodles 1st snow... Be'Be' run back in the house but as you can see Lil' Pac here is loving it!

So this morning I finished up another one of my "hired" projects...

Pretty, isn't it? She wants to trim and decorate it herself. She just needed me to construct it for her...

Gathered halter bra top.. straight skirt with gathers on one side down the hip... the other side just has gathers above the slit, darts for shaping on the backside, invisible zipper....
This skirt is actually a BWOF pattern.. altered ofcourse!

The only thing I don't like about it is the fake ties she wanted at the back of the halter and the back hanging down... but whatever.. its her costume!

I think she is going to trim and decorate it with AB crystals.. it will be stunning on her!

I have another hired project (actually I have several!!) but its my turn for something!!! Esp. since the Bald Man is on his way to Chatt-Town with his Lacrosse team for a game... and won't be back till about 8:30 tonight... which... gives me extra time to sew today!!!

Lots of new stuff!!

I LOVE this bag.... Its another Ellen Medlock pattern. Its called the Karma Bag! My mom and I both took a class at the sewing expo 2 yrs ago and made one... but I didn't like the fabric they gave us so I gave it away.... and after 2 yrs I finally get around to making another one... In fabric I do like! This is vintage fabric from the attic of my great aunt in Nashville.... Mildred. The inside is lined with some adorable Scottie dog fabric I bought at Jo anns .... left over scraps from a wrap I made my mom for Christmas one year. The EXTRA awesome thing about this bag is its exchangeable because of the way the hardware is made.... just twist off two of the little tips... slide this purse off another on... twist caps on and you're off with a different bag! Now I gotta make some different bags to go with this! Which should help my ailing purse wardrobe.... cause I really love this bag! My B-day was last month (big 36!) and this is what mom gave me.... An adorable and much ne

Just alittle hoop action

I think I'm getting better! hmmmm... I've got enough bruises from the hoop I should be better! I still can't hoop on my chest for long... and there's a good reason for that! lol!!!

New Donkey milk soap!

A new soap coming soon! This is Rosemary Lavender Donkey milk soap! Made with therapeutic essential oils, and premium ingredients like grape seed and sunflower oil! Purifying Clay and minerals give added benefits and pretty colors! I’ve been making homemade soap for several years now. I’ve always used the cold process method but after much research decided to try the hot process method. Mostly because with it I don’t add my milk until the end after the soap is cooling, the ph is balanced and the chemical lye is gone. Leaving behind correct ph pure soap.. which I then add my precious and highly skin beneficial donkey milk too. Looking forward to trying it and seeing it there is a significant difference!! On the crochet front.. I’m pretty much crocheting everyday again now that I’ve decluttered all that fiber!! So now I’m trying to get a handle on my supplies and organize. I love being organized!! I’m not one of those people who can stash yarn in plastic tubs or under the bed! I’ll fo
