"Excuse me, Miss (or Ms. or Mrs!), do you journal?"
Those are just beautiful! I did one like that for a VERY short amount of time- it certainly is inspiring, the way you have artfully captured things. I do really admire those who take the time at pen and paper. I think maybe I should give it a try again. I did purchase a lovely journal last...- Lauren

"Excuse me, Miss (or Ms. or Mrs!), do you journal?"
Yes, I do- but it's mostly on the computer these days. I keep swearing I'll go back to paper and pen, but I haven't. I start then stop. Since I'm already at the computer anyways it's easier for me to do it that way. I do it to read back on what I'm up to- both emotionally and day to day...- Lauren

Ditto that. I *heart* hooded dresses. There was a hooded early 40s evening gown pattern once that I lost. *le sigh*- Lauren

Show us what you've made!
Thanks, gals :) MarieAnne- I made a big floofy petticoat and that's what makes the skirt so huge! And the polka dot skirt has some tulle in it as well. Unfortunately the polka dot skirt isn't wide enough at the bottom for the petticoat so it kind of looks like a bell shape instead of just...- Lauren

Show us what you've made!
I finished my halloween kitty dress tonight! Yay! And here's a petticoat/slip I made from a 90s prom dress. My new floofy petticoat showed through with the stripes so I thought gold polka dots would look cute. I just got this shirt this week, too, from a little vintage store around here. I...- Lauren

Thanks so much, gals! :D It was really fun to make- I kind of want to make another one! I guess I should actually make something to wear with it, though, huh? I think you're right- it would actually be fun to wear alone. Maybe if I make an orange slip it would be fun around Halloween with...- Lauren

Sewing Lessons & FAQ
Ditto that. I want to make a 30s one. I'm guessing those are more like traditional corsetmaking, but I'd be interested to hear.- Lauren

Show us your non-vintage self
Thanks! I think my husband took both the shots. I may have set it on the timer for the one with the dress form, I don't remember. Sis, I think you're my 1930s and non-vintage partner in crime. haha. It seemed even our "modern" clothes were similar styles when I saw you this summer ;)- Lauren

I made this today. Or rather, remade. I found a red a-line skirt at the thrift store for $5 and really liked the thick wool, so I tore it apart and made a new skirt. This is from a 50s pattern, but I had to shorten it because I didn't have enough fabric in length. I even got to reuse the...- Lauren

Hungry: Crystal Renn
:offtopic: Sorry to jump in here, but I have to say for years I was mistaken as having an eating disorder because I was naturally VERY skinny- even before I knew what one was- it was all just genetics because both my parents were skinny. The complex still stays, on either side of the spectrum...
