wow

well i just checked the stats of my old mori girl lifestyle blog, it gets so many views now! but I don't post there anymore, it's dead... funny how that happens. maybe in a year ths blog will get comments and stuff, also to anyone who finds their way from rats4candy to here, i'm sorry i didn't respond to your comments! in truth I just assumed no one ever looked at that blog... but I guess it's still a nice resource for purely mori stuff, there's a tutorial compilation and a sailor collar how to..  anywho, hello again, feel free to drop a comment and chat with me.

doubly true

preview of some bags that will be up in the shop! their reverse side is drawn on too,but i'll reveal that later.

this has been my second slipper felting experience, a pretty good one i think. if anyone is interested i can link up all the resources i used, no specific tutorial just a lot of compiled info and faith/ehthisshouldwork,right?

i also added a little sweater cuff to the top, for a bit more security as the heel turned out lower than i wanted. eventually i want to add these babies, and probably won't wear then until then because im paranoid of stepping in something funky and never being able to get it out if the lovely felted fuzziness. having horrible visions of stepping in cat puke in them, then sobbing forever.

i haven't been sewing a lot due somewhat to school, but mostly illness and general malaise, but im optimistic about progress over the break, and may attempt a photoshoot soon. in fact, i will definitely shoot soon because its all that stands between me and my first listing.

introducing the Alchemist

fruits of last nights labor, two lovely sweatshirts channeling the alchemists lust for gold. im thinking perhaps ill ditch the model idea for now and just shoot flats, or else model myself, but I don't have a tripod... these delays are so frustrating! i have the goods but getting them up is proving more difficult than I thought. but im holding fast to my goal of opening by next semester.

all in a days work

ah they came out so nice! the only thing is i used almost half of them on stuff i made before, which means ill be sitting there with tiny little transfers again sooner than expected, doh.

what went on in the workroom today. labels and the torsos for The Alchemist dresses, i actually finished the black one, and i think the print is nice enough to work on something a bit more bare and sexy, perhaps The Alchemists Wife? it will probably be a more clingy and lightly shaped something or other, but that will have to wait.
