Do you like the 80's, Quecken?

Tribute to the 80's. That was my idea for styling for the wedding this weekend. And this is the result. Shoulderpads is lovely. I am afraid I might get addicted.

And for the skirt. The whole weekend I have been tossing and turning before the final judgement from our teacher. But I can tell you, I survived and so did Quecken. Yes, we have to name everything we do. Name was a matter of course. Styled with handprinted blouse. Hope you like it. Puss.

dear deer, come dance with me.

Something I'm working on at home, to calm my nervs and distract me from the skirt, wich more looks like pure disaster. Today I wanted to cry. Or die. Tomorrow, I have to deal with it, and make it work. In the end, it always turns out fabulous. If only I could have more faith in myself during the workprocess as afterwards.
Anyway, this is what I do when I need to chare myself up. I think it will be a... Well I don't know, a bra or a top or a dress. But whatever it will be, it ill have shoulderpads. I am falling in love with shoulderpads. The rest of the fabric is fantastic. A deer standing in front of a orange sun and trees, lovely. So I want to use it in one peace, and not destroy it with unnecessary seams.

The girl and the dress.


After hours and hours of tears, blood and shaking it is finally finished. The dress. I wanted it to be her, I wanted her to be it and I could not rush. I have been working with it on and off for several months but I think i needed that, having time to stop for a few weeks and think.
Also, this project has been rewording for me personally as well. A way to start beliving in love maybe. Anyway, i think we all have been waiting long enough. Here it is. Marielle as fabric. Just some ironing away from complete.

it's a bag in box, it's a bag in a box.

This is why i could never massproduce. I love to care about every peace like it was my child. And maybe this is why I don't want kids, I already have to many.
I started making bags. I like these. Simpel, yet stylish.
I hate showing or giving away something halfdone or sloppy, so this is important to me, having time to make cute bags and handmade tags. Playing with glue is underestimated.
Today I worked with the skirt. Fab. You will see result soon. Peter, if you read this, this skirt is for you. Well, not for for you but... You know what I mean.
Puss
