Hi everyone!! I just wanted to update you all.
I took off that blasted word verification from the comments. I know what a pain in the butt it can be when you just want to leave a comment so I hope this will encourage my dear readers to start leaving comments again. I do miss reading your replies!! Please come back. :)
I can now be found on Instagram! I am really enjoying having an account there and sharing pictures that may not be worthy of a whole blog post. Mostly though, I enjoy seeing and perusing other vintage lovers' photos! So if you have an Instagram follow me! I am TheLolitaHaze.
The weather is maybe starting to spring up here in this less than desirable town. As great as that is... my heart is still longing to move to Vegas. I am getting closer to saving up enough to move... so hopefully that will happen sooner than later!
I finally finished a blouse I started months ago using fabric I bought 7+ years ago. Hahaha nothing like a timely finished project. Starting to sew again has brought me a lot of self motivation and I am enjoying the creative outlet and spill over it has been giving me.
I will share with you my next project! I bought this dark navy (almost black) sheer fabric with white polka dots and red bows. I found two styles of dresses that will be perfect for the material. I know I want to add matching velvet(een) bows so both of these styles would be nice. Trying to decide between the two, I think I will go with the colored one on the left. I also like the ribbon belt it has. Now I don't have patterns for either of these dresses, so I am going to just try and draft my own. By draft, I don't mean anything fancy with fancy sewing skills... I just mean try to figure it out with what sewing "smarts" I already have. Which will mean many muslins and many months til completion!
So that is about all I have to share with you at the moment. I hope people haven't abandoned me completely. I do enjoy sharing with you all and being inspired by you!
