recently, i experienced a major shift in my career choice. because of this, i have a huge pile of office attire that’s taking up valuable space in my closet. for the last four years, i was wearing suits to work every day and under the suits, i was wearing typical “office appropriate” tops. you know [...]
i made this bracelet for my boyfriend today. i especially love the color combination of thread i chose to serge the end with. two different color blues, green, and yellow. he is my number one fan and sew very tolerant of the messes i’ve been making due to my bursts of creativity. you have to [...]
have i mentioned how hard it is to be 4’11″ and find fun, flowy pants that fit? and i’ve got curves sew the kids department doesn’t work for me (believe me, i’ve tried). again, i thought i would try my hand at making a pair of pants that i can hoop in, out of this [...]
here’s a picture of todays loot! i think i found some pretty neat treasures, and all for just a few dollars a piece. i’ll be re-purposing these items into new, funky, chokers…using neckties, one of my favorite mediums! stay tuned for photos of the finished products.
yesterday, i had another product shoot on the roof of my apartment building. it’s really nice up there, you can see for miles and miles across the city. the san francisco buildings, trees, and rooftops make for a nice backdrop for product shots. to see more highlights, please visit my photographer’s website here.

in my never ending quest to find clothes that fit, i just plain give up! it’s so hard finding ready made comfortable clothing that i decided it’s time to take matters into my own hands and make my own clothes. yesterday, i made a top that needed a bottom. sew today, i made the pants. [...]
ok, sew i made it yesterday but i was too lazy to post about it! i didn’t take before pictures because i forgot to. i need a personal assistant but that’s another topic… i’m always on the hunt for cute tops that i can hoop comfortably in. their are many considerations in choosing the right [...]
