Hey Guys! I'm Back!!! Can you believe its been a whole TWO MONTHS since my last post! Things just got so crazy with my work for Cobbs' Carnival of Dreams and the move from SoCal to NorCal. Things totally got away from me! But I'm back and getting into the grove of things! Holidays are just around the corner so not sure my twice a week post is really going to take off, but for sure I plan to continue my weekly sewing challenge, and hope some of you decide to take up that mantl

I wouldn't say she was the inspiration because I wasn't watching the show at the time I made the dress. But she was the inspiration for hair and makeup both of which I'm super happy with the turn out. So no there's no murder in this one, I just wanted to look like a wealthy lady who does detectiv

Oh man, if you read my last post you know that my vacation was more of a workcation, as I traveled 800 miles back to my hometown for my bestie's wedding! I had the most wonderful time, and got to celebrate my best friend's big day, I also had the honor of making her dress, which was worth the time crunch.
