Then I'd feel guilty because I failed to keep my resolution. It was not a win-win situation, so I quit doing it. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Time to bust out".

This resurrection may not work. The shirt material is very worn and thin, and there are lots of frayed edges, and rips in the fabric.

Finish One, Start Another. Here is the finished underdress. The only decoration is pearls sewn around the sleeve binding. Oh, and just one of the many things I love about linen is the way it drapes so beautifully. This is the costume as it was worn, with the headpiece.

Avocado Skin Dye, Bleach Pens, and Hair Ornaments. Here is the shrug and the tea cloth simmering away in the dye. Here are the shrug—one I made years ago out of an old tablecloth—and the tea cloth before I dyed them. The shrug had started to turn yellow with age.

I finished this project the other day and like the way it turned out. Not too shabby for a tarted up $3.99 Goodwill sweatshirt, doncha think? Yes, there are cat hairs on the shirt. In my house that is a given. What looks like areas of dirt, is the sun reflecting off the dust on my camera lens. Oops. Lastly, here is one more look at the scarab necklac...

Mother Nature decided to give us a break, the temps rose to a balmy 45 (I was tempted to break out my shorts!

They covered my hair in black veiling, encased my body in heavy brocades, and assigned jeweled insects as my familiars. Surely the small miracle I performed did not warrant becoming a prisoner of their adulation? Tuesday, June 3, 2014.
