Quick Post!


I've been extremely busy lately. I am in the process of starting a new job and have been going reconstruction-crazy with clothes (partially for the new job). I have pretty much grounded myself from buying clothes since I don't wear the ones I have (they need to be tweaked), I have stolen many from the boyfriend, and I have oodles of fabric. So here are some remakes and I finished the sweater I was making (very proud :-)).

The first one is obviously the crochet sweater. It kinda has a funky neckline, but I was impressed how it came out. #2 Was a plain tshirt. #3 Was a long sleeve frat tshirt that looks really cute (I think it does). #4 I previously added the red bow, but it looked like it was missing something. #5 Was a plain v-neck long sleeve shirt. I added the black, the button, and ribbon. #6 Was made from the book Generation T: Beyond Fashion (very awesome book). I also made 16 pairs of earrings the other week. Since I only have 6 holes I can put them in, I was thinking of doing a give-away on my website. Partially to see if I have viewers or not, lol. I will post more details this weekend. So have a great week and happy crafting!
