I went to Japan! So of course I had to bring a coord with me. I ran into a few other lolitas while I was dressed up, which was very fun and sweet.

My most recent creation! A long vest with a hood? A sleeveless cardigan? Idk what you call this type of garment. I made out of some cotton jersey that I got extremely cheap, and it turned out way better than I expected.

This is how the pattern looks if anyone is interested in making something similar! I traced a cardigan I had in my closet and then mucked around with it a bit. At first just adding some flare from the waist down, but then I realised it would look nicer if it was a bit more fitted, so I took in the top part in and created pleats at the waist.

I made this skirt in only a day on Saturday, which is definitely the fastest I've ever finished a main piece! It was helped along though by the fact that the fabric I used for the ruffles was already gathered.

I made it out of a bed skirt that I thrifted recently. It was part of a set, and the blanket looks great on my bed, but I decided against the bed skirt and valences that came with it. I'm very happy with how it turned out, but I don't think I'll actually end up wearing it, so I'm planning on giving it to a friend who will.

haven't done much sewing latetly, but I made a shirt. the pattern was from the 70s and said "fast and easy" which it was!

I tried to do Maptober last month, and I didn't quite get every single day done, but I do think my skills improved a fair bit over that time, and I had a lot of fun with some of the prompts so I'll consider it a success. These aren't all the maps that I made, just some of my favourites :)

Got dressed up for Halloween but I got rained on

I made this blouse by chopping up 2 plaid shirts and mashing them together. Originally I was planning to just use the more red plaid shirt to make a blouse with but then I decided to cut up another shirt that I just haven't worn in a while. I was a bit worried that it would look too silly with the 2 types of plaid, but I'm very happy with how it all came together!

Went to the ren faire today with my loyal hound

I made a little rosette from the scraps I had from back when I altered a jsk a while back

I finished up this vest finally last night! Its the first time I've made one, and this was supposed to be a mockup originally, but it seemed like it fit well enough that I just ended up lining and finishing it anyways. I think if I were to make it again I would lower the neckline and lengthen it a little bit. It think it fits like it's meant to it's just a bit dated (makes sense since the pattern was from the 90s lol)

Do you think a depressed person could make this!? *Holds out a poorly made prop for a dnd game played entirely online*

Finished up some pajama pants using a pattern from the 1930s. I'm planning on making the matching top at some point, so I can have a fancy, fantasy themed set to lounge around in!
