Cami Test

I just finished week 5 of my lingerie class. This week I drafted and constructed a cami! After a test fit and pattern alternation for armhole gapping I have an awesome fit! I used fold over elastic for the binding and straps. Much more difficult to work with than I expected. I definitely need more practice and patience!

 

Stella & Dot Bryant Scarf- Pink

The Stella & Dot Breast Cancer Boutqiue for October 2012 is AMAZING! I am loving all 5 pieces. The new addition of scarves to their repotoire is an A++. Not only are they soft but huge! Perfect size to wear as a shawl or blanket on really chilly days.

$2 Grab Bag Equals Fun for Kiki

The Michael's Craft Store near my house has been have $2 Grab Bags. They are large plastic bags filled with random items for only $2. You can't peak, all items are final sale but the thrill of the deal and the unknown is unyielding. I have purchased two on different occasions. I have done quite well. In my second one was a cute zebra print lunch tote (with a retail value of $12.99, score!) I also came across this pink puppet.

Well it is hard to find a cat toy for $2 so I was willing to see if my kitten, Kiki, would play with it. Turns out, she loves it. That little toy gets batted around my room and she just has a hay day.

The Pink Puppet- a little strange looking but kind of cute too!
