I finally found a source for dark purple fleece!  This is the latest custom order: it's my fave Flower faerie hoodie, but with the colors reversed.  This one also comes up a little higher in the front.  I think it turned out really beautiful.  The embroidery seems to shine, a bit, since the dark part of the variegated thread blends so well with the purple fleece.  The lighter part just sort of glows.  Yummmmm.

It turned out Just Beautiful.  I absolutely love it!  I brought it to a party on NYE to let people try it on, and see how it flows and hangs on different sized people, and I have to say that this coat looked great on really, everyone who tried it on.  Maybe I've just got Proud Mom syndrome, but this coat is *delightful*.  I think it's one of the best things I've ever made.

As always, I'm really tempted to hang on to it.. but I have too many coats, there is no room in the coat closet, so I am going to list it up on my Etsy store later today.. I hope it makes someone as happy as it's making me!

Happy Holidays!  Now that the holiday crazies are ending, I'm finally getting around to posting some pictures and thoughts about stuff I've been doing this month.

First: I've gotten lots of requests for larger sizes, and I'm listening!  I sized up my Purple Flower Faerie Hoodie for a custom request from Etsy, and I LOVE how it turned out, so I'm adding the bigger one to my Etsy store for future requests.  So pretty!  I love how this style is just so flattering on just about anyone.  Especially on the Lovely Amy (I adore how it matches her hair!  Yay for Purple Stuff.)

I've been making glovies too and giving them away as fast as I can make them, it seems.  They're such a great Christmas gift and I can often make them out of "leftover" fabric pieces that are too small to keep, so it makes me feel sort of green and environmentally friendly.. plus, all my friends have warm wrists now.  :)

I got lots of sewing stuff for Christmas, but my favorite present was made by my hubby.. he created a hand made My Little Pony unicorn soldering iron for me.  Is this not the coolest thing in the whole WORLD?  I've already used her to fix my light-up wings, and I may be incorporating more EL wire into my costumes soon soon, simply because I need a reason to solder things.  I'm torn between calling her "Princess Solderflux" or  maybe "Hotflash".


As you can see, I'm wearing my Peacock Hoodie in the pic.. and Hotflash seems to have an evil side lurking beneath her deadly cute exterior.. she managed to melt a hole right through the front of the hoodie the very first time I used her.  She may actually be evil incarnate, the jury is still out.  However, I still love her with all my heart.. if she's evil, I've fallen completely under her spell and become her minion, I fear.

More pictures of more stuff when it quits raining!

This place has been an inspiration for me since years ago when I first discovered them.  I wear the skirt I bought from them ALL THE TIME.  Love.  Check them out: Alienskin Clothing
