sweatshirt drafting in its final phases!

January 26th, 2008 · 1 Comment

I am very pleased to announce that my latest endeavor, the greatest hoodie in all of my land, is nearly complete. No pics now, that would ruin the surprise silly!

03/02/08: I guess the joke is on me, because I finished the sweatshirt and loved it. Then went to a store and bought not one, but 2 plain black sweatshirts that I love even more. I guess I’m still a Portland girl at heart, a black hoodie all the time kind of girl.

Vintage Halloween Work Apron

January 25th, 2008 · No Comments


This is an excellent, light duty, tool belt. It’s a standard tool/work belt shape but made of a standard cotton fabric instead of twill or something heavier. Very good as a regular kitchen apron or a sewing/craft tool apron.

The fabric is a vintage halloween postcard print trimmed with a lovely cocoa brown pocket, waistband and tie.

It measures 21″ across the top, 24″ across the bottom, ties are each 14″, and it is 12″ tall. The cocoa pocket is 15″ across and the deep pocket goes all the way across the apron.

The ties on this one turned out sort of short. I’m thick waisted and it only has a few inches left at each end of the tie so I’d say it’s a medium.

I happily gift wrap!

Lovely Dotted Work Apron

January 25th, 2008 · No Comments

This is an excellent heavy duty tool belt or work apron. It is made of a gorgeous upholstery weight fabric. It’s a great update on the standard work/tool belt and perfect as a sewing/craft tool apron.

The fabric is a lovely chocolate brown with tan, cream, and avocado green dots. The front pocket is a very soft lavender cord. It measures 21″ across the top, 24″ across the bottom, and it is 10″ tall. The lavender pocket is 15″ across and the deep pocket goes all the way across the apron.

This apron is held on with a dark brown webbing that is an additional 24″. The waist circumference is a total of 45″ and would fit up to a 40″ waist comfortably.
