The dress with addition of underskirt and ribbon

The love birds are tying the knot....

Here are the first photos of the wedding dress.
From here there will be fabric choices and some additional hours of sewing.
This is the beginning of the wedding dress project.
It's not like anyone expected me to wear something predictable or something that I didn't have a hand in altering to my liking.

In Bloom

Festival Express

From the history books: a train tour across Canada. Passengers inside the train cars include Buddy Guy, the Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin, the Band and more. The train takes an emergency stop in Saskatoon to the liquor store. It's a fun watch if just for the music and outfits.

In this scene, Jerry turns to Janis and says "I've loved you since the day I met you". Not sure if the lady beside him knows how fashion forward her outfit is...too bad her headband wasn't beaded, that would have been luxurious.


Janis says, "How's it going Daddy"...to Rick Danko of the band. Darling.

how about...

I am always getting digs for being the eco-friendly (can also be translated as terrified) NON DRIVER of the family. My daughter and I take transit everywhere. That, or walk, since we managed to situate ourselves in a perfect little urban oasis. School, groceries, produce and other amenities are a five minute step away.

I have a carport that is rarely used, guests only. I think I found the perfect solution for the unused space. How about this baby:


I've always been attracted to Airstream trailers, clearly I am not alone in this. Nor is it particularly unique to want to use these darling throw backs as an office, studio or guest home. I think my favorite alteration thus far has to be "Hey, Cupcake" of Austin, Texas.
