Wooo hooo hooo!!!!

I'm done with the spring semester!

For once I feel as though I totally don't care what grades I got. It's just super lovely to be free. Even if I am going to have a summer full of research. Free for until then!!!

I really want to get my sew on. Look at these cool projects:

Check out Erin's tutorial on how to insert pockets into a three-panel skirt when you're ready to tackle something beyond an elastic waist.

Those glitter shoes would be perfect for a Lady Gaga concert. Just sayin'.

For reals. I get that.

Hey, now that the semester is over, maybe I can finally read that article about Lady Gaga's fashion that one of you sent me... um.... four months ago or something.

Yes. I am that lame.

Happy reading!

FWIW, her fashion choices make me wince. It's awesome that she gets to wear all the crazy stuff that she wants, but it's certainly not my thing.

Woohoo! Hey, thanks! :D xx Yeah, you could totally do it with cheap-o canvas shoes. I'm telling you--suddenly all the neglected shoes in my closet are looking like potential glitter victims.

That pockets dress is cute. I wish I could sew!

What?! A crafty girl like you doesn't sew? How does that work? Too time consuming? Too much equipment involved? Fabric is too expensive?

I think it's the tediousness--I lose patience with hand-stitching and the tangles and jams that go along with machines. I can never get the hang of sewing machines. It just doesn't come naturally and I have to relearn how to use it with every project. My sister is a whiz, though. She got all the sewing genes. ;)
