Skirts!

I've been making and remaking some skirts lately for summer. I can't wait to wear them.

This is a denim skirt I made about a week ago. It has a fly zipper and pockets (I love pockets)

It has a yoke and belt loops.

The pockets and pleats.

The Japanese fabric I used for the bottom and binding. The Takahashis sent it up for me.

My newest skirt. It had a side zipper and is made with some calico I had. It's not done though, I'm going to put some tan ric rac around the bottom.

The yoke and the crochet belt I made awhile back.

The calico.

I found this mini skirt at a thrift store. I pleated some Ty-dye polka dot fabric to sew on it.

The back.

I love Ty-dye and polka dots!

I found this skirt at the thrift store too. It wasn't that short but I found this really cute fabric to make it just right.

I really liked the buttons.

The brown polka dot fabric (again I really like polka dots!)

That's all for now.

The Art of Forks

Well, I wanted to make a pictorial book, but Rich said no one would buy it. So I made a movie instead. Enjoy!

Here is a movie Luke and I made a few day ago. It has no moral and no real pint but I still hope you enjoy it. It is based on a late 1920s silent movie. Luke is a piano player who gets fired because his music is to modern.

Half Way!

Today I realized I'm half way done with German! Finally. My mom is making me finish it even though I really don't want to. I started learning German when Hannah was so we both got the Rosetta Stone German. It's supposed to be a one year program but I've been doing it for 2 years now, so.... But like I already said I'M HALF WAY DONE!

The Frizz

On Saturday I got over 6 inches cut of my hair. It's so nice, much lighter. Last night I wanted to see how puffy I could get it if I brushed it. It was so funny I looked like I stuck my finger in a light socket, It was literally way past my shoulders. Today I really wanted yams for lunch so I heated them up with 2 marshmellows and a pear. Well, the yams tasted great but the pear was gross, take my advise and never put a pear in with your yams, peaches taste great though and it looked really yummy.

OK, you all know I'm weird, but did you know I was that weird! For myself I crocheted a alien, and for Anna Takahashi the Grim Reaper she wanted. I thought he turned out so cute I named him Desmond. He will soon be on his way to CA.

kanzashi

Last night I made a kanzashi. They are Japanese pieces to wear in your hair. Here is an attempt I made.

And here is a professional one.

Looking up.

Maybe it seems pointless but I was trying to think of positive things to circumstances that may seem bad. So here are 10 that I came up with.

Your homeless- You don't have to pay taxes.

Your house burns down- No more clutter.

You have lice- people won't use your hairbrush.

Your shoveling lots of snow- at least it's not sand.

Your still shoveling snow- You get a free workout.

Your car breaks down- you don't have to buy gas.

Your top shelf in your closet breaks- you find stuff you never knew you had!

Your power goes out- you find more productive things to do.

Your purse gets stolen- You have a really good excuse to buy more lip gloss.

Your brother thinks it would be funny to mess up your hair- You learn self control.
