My Cat Loves Me

It's been a while since I posted but the following photos are why! My bff Lisa made Fartbomb a lovely sweater, and I've been buried in Jem costumes. I think I made 30 so far this fall including the belts and complete costumes. Who knew Jem would be so popular? Well, who DOESN'T know that about Jem?? I'm still doing custom sized Jem costumes for CosPlay (spelling?) and 1980's parties here http://www.cherrypievintage.etsy.com

Back to sewing and now embroidery!

Victoria's and GaGa goodness

I swear that Lady GaGa herself had a hand in the Victoria's Secret fashion show that I'm watching right now. The opening walk was RIDICULOUSLY awesome, but why do people make fun of my dear Lady's outfits? That gold lightening bolt explosion on the one that was close to last was PURE GAGA.

So, I've been mia lately because I have NO LIFE other than sewing, work, sewing, Oahu....what's that? Oahu? Yes! I'm heading there soon! But for kicks, here's the Halloween madness I was part of.......Marilyn, Lady GaGa and Jem. Oh yes, JEM. And I can't figure out why the photo sucks. omg the green outfit on Fergie right now? Sweetness.

Costume Ideas

I think I'm going to start talking about costume ideas since I listed another one on etsy today. http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=30222208

Easily someone could be Dorothy, or Alice or throw blood on it and it's a zombie-whatever. Yes, I know it's basically the same description but I'm drawing a blank as to what else you could be in a checked dress with an apron. A square dancer maybe? Throw on a cowboy hat and a big belt, ditch the apron and you're all set to boot scoot boogie or whatever the heck that dorky western dance is. Can you tell I'm not a fan?

This afternoon I went out and used a gift card to Adirondack Quilts that my bff (she'd totally make fun of me if she knew I just typed that) gifted me for my birthday. SHE is AWESOME! I bought some Amy Butler cottons for a dress to wear to a wedding this weekend. It's an outdoor wedding, in the middle of the woods, very rustic. I'm hoping this print won't be too much.
