slow

i spent all day working on a skirt that might be too big. it's pretty, it's poufy, i used this skull fabric to make a little pocket on the side to hold my chapstick, and i like it a lot, but i'll have to wear it for a day to see if it fits right.

i am not the world's best sewer, i'm also not the most patient or good at re-doing things i did wrong to start with, but i really like spending the day to make something. especially something as useful and as part of my daily life as cups of tea, like a black skirt. it's hard to find just plain black skirts that aren't made of some god-awful synthetic material, and i wear them like some girls wear jeans. this skirt i made today has these cute little pleats on it that might make my ass look like it comes into the room before me, though. i know if i just fuss with it some more, or wear it with something flattering it will be fine, but i am hyper-critical of the things i make.

you'd think after all this i'd have a photo for you. i don't! maybe tomorrow!
