November Step Challenge!!

Rocket Shoes for Ms. Frizzle
DragonCon Countdown: 7 days!! Only a week away!! For my original Ms. Frizzle Outfit, I purchased some cheap shoes from Goodwill to attach rockets to, which was a terrible idea. Cheap shoes for multiple hours at DragonCon meant I quickly acquired blisters and had to find bandaids which only slightly helped. This year, I decided […]
Light Blue Clever Girl Shirt
DragonCon Countdown: 10 days!! With this shirt I have used up the last of my fat quarters from Spoonflower and my favorite “Clever Girl” fabric. I had a hard time figuring out how to add this to a shirt, but I think it turned out very well!! The clever girl fabric is a silky faille […]
