Photobooth Diary: Third Edition


Man, I had a really good photobooth diary all lined up, but then my hard drive crashed. So, this is from when I got my new hard drive to today when I got a haircut.

hand_drawn_pattern_teal_web2.jpg

Ever since Jack hung these great curtains in our living room, I have been taken by the huge line-filled flowers on them. Recently I have been trying to perfect making seamless/repeat hand drawn patterns. I decided to recreate the pattern on the curtain's as a test. It's not exactly the same of corse, but heavily inspired. Below is my interpretation in a few different colors.

I think the pattern would look great on tights or leggings! Maybe not with heels though.

Six Different Types of Collars



I was thinking about how much I like peter pan collars today, and it reminded me of all the different and sometimes strange types of collars there are for clothing. In my high school sewing class we were given old hand outs on all the different types of collars and selves there are, and then we were tested on them! I remember being fascinated by those handouts, and today I tried to recreate one, but I included the type of person that might wear the specific collar.
