#14

Well I did finish that blue and white polka dot dress. And I wore it on a night out and it actually didn't break while dancing! This blog is severely lacking in photos. Dave took one of my dress on his disposable camera so I have to wait for those to be developed. D'oh.

I am 23 in a months time and I feel very unaccomplished. I have all the time in the world at the moment for crafty things but no money to fritter away on fabrics, wool and ribbon. Having no job and no money and too much time is making me very sad lately and making my brain turn to mushy mush. I really would like to put in some effort into advancing my skills as I feel I'm limiting myself. I also want to learn how to crochet and spend more time baking! I have interview this week so things might pick up. Hopefully.

I'm really obsessed with dark red fabrics at the moment. In particular, dark red velvet. I was on LookBook having a nosey and saw a lady wearing a stunning dark red velvet swishy dress with a white peter pan collar and a black ribbon. It's in the sketchbook as a future project.
