Time flies when you're...uh... reading a lot?



Today marks the end of my third week of the new school term, and wow it's been tough so far. Either I've forgotten how to be a student, or we have way more readings and research to do this term. (~350 pages a week + research @.@)

I'm not sure how it's gone by so fast. Feels like yesterday I was putting my binder together to head to my first class!

I have a few projects almost finished, so I'm hoping I'll get a chance to do the finishing touches and photograph them properly this weekend. It's been quite nice weather-wise the last week or so, so I think I'll have some good light for it.


I hope everyone has been having a pleasant last few weeks!

Organizing Butterflies



I've spent the last few days attempting to organize all of my clothing patterns. They got fairly mushed together during the move. Some of them seem completely lost, which is a tad unfortunate, but I have most of the pieces for my favourite items. (Yay!)

Tobi - Unoa Lusis/MiniFee hybrid
Tobi was 'helping' :p
Some of the pieces are perfectly organized and have my 'tested and works' symbol on them, but a lot of them don't... many aren't even labelled so I just have to assume what they are. Poor decision on my part.

Anyway, I'm still on my make-my-own-dolls-stuff 'rampage', I figured I'd combine my pattern testing with making them stuff. :) Right now I'm concentrating on the butterfly cardigans since I have about 5 different sizes (MNF, long MNF, YoSD, Bisou Ai, PKF) and I'm not entirely sure if they all work right.

Mali - MiniFee Shushu

Mali will be getting a new white one because her old one was a prototype and was never properly finished, and maybe a teal one just because; Jonas will get a pale yellow to match her Liberty Tana dress and maybe one in blue or pink so I can test out the PKF version too and then Bella will be getting a few in browns or greens. Tobi is spoiled.

---

Despite this being mostly for my personal collection, I'd love suggestions for what colours/sizes to play with. I think I'll probably list any that I don't end up liking as much as I think I will in my shop, so if there's anything you're interested in seeing, just leave a comment or send me an email and I'll add it to the pile. :)
