Second Shirt Finished!

I did it!

It's finally complete!

I struggled and labored over this shirt for what seemed like forever, but I finally finished it.

The lace ruffle trim shirt:

Hipster Scarves

I found this tutorial and have been really excited to try it out.

After fumbling around with the ruffle shirt, finally ripping out that bad seam, and sewing the back of the shirt on, I decided that, instead of tackling the next step of adding the sleeves, I'd try making some hipster t-shirt scarves.

I also decided to take some hipster picture glam shots for good measure.

Defeating the Perils of Online Shopping

I like to buy clothes online.

I don't have to leave the house.

I don't have to deal with the crowds of teenagers at the mall.

I can easily see all of the clothes a store has to offer.

And I oftentimes get awesome discounts emailed to me that make it worth it to buy online.

But there's a problem with online shopping.

A dark side to this otherwise beautiful invention.

While the boyfriend's away...

the Gabs will.... sew....

The boyfriend had an extra anatomy lab from 6 - 8 pm this evening.

Meaning he was gone from 5:30 - 9 pm.

I got bored after about the first half hour of his absence, considering I had already been at home all day by myself and had pretty much exhausted the tv watching and internet browsing for one day.

I ended up going through the patterns, books, and magazines that I have lying around and found this pattern.
