I used to Sew

Sewing was one of my main crafts in high school. I never used a pattern, I just found fabric I liked and then went at it. Obviously, that resulted in imperfect pieces, but it's such a rewarding craft. If I'm going to get into it again, I'm going to need to learn the specifics about how to use my sewing machine and maybe try using some patterns or creating my own. Anyway, a couple of these outfits I truly wore in real life, and those shoes were an essential part of my high school getups (accompanied, often, by fishnets and miniskirts). Enjoy!

I actually love this skirt and would have worn it if I hadn't screwed up the zipper!

It was also a tad tight...

I didn't make the shirt. How do you like those shoes!?

I wore this one to school. You see, I was up late one night with a boy watching PBS and suddenly it turned into the Vietnamese Broadcasting Channel, and a bunch of girls got onto for a concert. They were all wearing purple and one of them had on an extremely tiny mini skirt and these legging/stocking/half-pants things. I was captivated and needed to make them for myself!! Although my skirt is about 4 inches longer than hers was. 

To make my legs even longer.

I thought using these would be a nice touch.

Space Frump Dress.

The fabric was on clearance.

This was actually an angel costume for a church Christmas play.

This is the only one of all these that I used a pattern for. It was for a choir cabaret concert. 

I'm the most proud of this one, I feel like it turned out really nicely. 

Oh yeah, reeeeal nicely ;)

If for any reason you want any of these, let me know :)
