Halloween Costumes 2011
Every year I am faced with the inevitable challenge of coming up with the perfect Halloween costume, ideally something unique and creative that sets me apart from the pack of zombies and sexy witches. I don’t buy costumes, I make my own. Sometimes I know a year in advance what I want to be, sometimes I dilly dally until it hits me. So what's a girl to do? My favorite place to look for inspiration is the runway. Shows always have tons of costume ideas. So I thought I’d put together an entry that will hopefully inspire others to also create their own, unique costumes.
"Who What Where" thought these were the top costume-ish looks from the FW 11 shows, I couldn't agree more.
What will I do this year? Stay tuned to find out!

Sketching
I've been practicing my sketching - a lot. I have a long way to go, but I really enjoyed working on these, and wanted to share them. Done in water color and pencils, having fun with wedding dresses.

My second entry for experimenting with fabric manipulations. The instructions are pretty much the same as the 1st one. However, the pattern is a little different.
