Sequin Dot fabric tips

Really there's just ONE tip, don't iron it on the dot side. Big duh, right? Ok, well how about you don't iron it on the sequin dot side (the right side) while trying to flip your fat cat over with your foot and then forget that it's the wrong side and put the hot steam iron down on it and then wonder, huh? What's that smell....oh shit.



Dear Martha,
Your hair looks fantastic today! You must have a new stylist because it's got some more body than prior shows and there's a hint that a curling iron was used. Anyho- broadcast in HD would you!?!
Love, Jill

Martha, hands on, though not in HD

Yes, yes..........again. I'm bitching about Martha's new show NOT beging in High Def. That's all I got for today because I'm knee deep in Jem costumes. I'm also late on getting dinner started because someone is at the office and his ride left without him and now I have to go get him, in my pajamas, sweaty from working out, and I'm kinda cranky because of the lack of food in my system and wine of course. Dang it.



Dear Martha,


Please figure it out.


Hugs, Jill

Miss Tattoo USA

I'm gonna do it! I'm trying out for http://www.misstattoousa.com/! Gonna start working out a bit more cause I doubt anyone wants to see cupcake tattoos around a beer belly, and I need some more ink....too much pink showing at the moment. But yes! I'm gonna apply!


I ordered this pattern off of etsy yesterday to whip up some cute Libby inspired dresses to go with some sew on gems and vintage cotton lace. I think Amy Butler prints will work out best, or some other vintage sheets I've got laying around. Maybe I'll get to them after the 4 Jem dresses, Queen of Hearts, Tron, two wedding dresses and the Red Riding Hood costume....who needs sleep? Not me.

I don't want the flu vaccine





I might be mandated to get the flu vaccine because of where I work. I'm so not down with that, and am pretty ticked off about it.


I've never had the flu, I've never gotten the shot, I don't like being told what to put into my body especially if it might make me sick and hurt and cost money.


On another note, EC is in one pill form now! AND there is a generic version too! Hooray! Yeah, I know, I'm all over the place this morning.

Today I'm working on a couple of Jem costumes that sold in my etsy shop. Should be an easy task as I sized up the pattern I made up for it last night. What I'm finding hard is finding time to create items for the holiday sales I'm doing in November and December. I also have no interest in making anything that I've made in the past other than fascinators. And hair flowers alone will not pay for that holiday I'd rather forget and not bother with at all. Sigh. I'm a downer today, hopefully that will change with more coffee and a shower.
