Just completed!
The sewing continues. To what purpose I sometimes wonder, but here is the latest completion. I have more of this fabric, so I have the ability to make other sizes. Special order anyone?

Here is the next go around with this top. Better, but it still needs a bit of work. The shoulders want to slide to the back. I’m not quite sure how to fix it, so I’m going to take a break to mull it over. I’ll come back to it later. On to the next project!
well, almost. this top is complete, but the pattern needs a bit of work yet. too much ease in the sides and I don’t like the drape on the front. revisions, here I come!
Bodice is done. Now on to sleeves. Someone should come draft them for me, because, as you can see, I’ve been putting it off. Well, I better get to it!

I’m in the studio working on making candles tonight, testing out some new wax and scents. (Crystal’s making a fantastic quilt!)
The candle in the picture is in one of my very favorite screenprinting test glasses.
The plan is to pour soy candles into containers that I screenprint. Soy wax washes out with soap and water, so the container will be reusable as a drinking glass!
Look for them soon…
These may not be the greatest images, and I’m just getting started out… but here you go! We’ll see where it goes from here. Right now they are just available at Tomte.
