Sun, 30 Jul 2006 08:24:07 GMT

Finished Projects:
A black velvet jacket with pink heart logo and added lace. (I just need to take pictures of it so I can post it).

Current Projects:
A skirt made from old purple cordouroy pants that were worn out from love. Made with a collage of fabrics.

A patchwork purse. (Expensive pink bag given to me, decided to fix it up). I'll probably make it for my mom.

Project Ideas:
I'm planning on posting some fashion illustrations, as soon as I get my scanner working.

FOR SALE. Email me at m0lok0vell0cet@yahoo.com and/or leave a comment. ($40, *free shipping) ... will soon be on Ebay ...
Product Info:
Previously a large, plain black Liz Claibourne purse. Three pockets altogether on outside, one a perfect cell phone pocket. Inside is VERY roomy, divided into two sections by a third zip up section, (doesn't zip, pull-tab's broken off). Plenty of pockets inside as well, "hidden pocket", card pockets, pen holders, etc. Black with mostly light pink accents/trim. $40, *free shipping.
*(unless outside the United States)

This is my pride and joy. It's one of the first major things I ever sewed, besides a quilt or two when I was younger at a quilting class.

I found one of my mom's old Liz Claibourne purses and I thought it was cool and thought I'd pimp it out. I basically just sewed on a bunch of odds and ends that I found around my room.

Let's see... the black X strapped across the both sides are garter straps, the corset-laced sides were cut off my old black sneakers and laced with ribbon, the pink shoe string laces up a cell phone pocket that was previously the front of an old skirt, the pink and black lace pocket I sewed from fabrics from shirts that didn't fit... mostly it's from old clothes. Oh and the back that's mostly pink, with the shirt pocket, was a pink button-up shirt that I sewed and painted on.

My favorite part is the cell phone pocket, it just happened to fit my phone perfectly!

Mod Alice tank shirt

This was very easy. As you can probably tell, I don't really have many advanced skills yet... I don't use a sewing machine, either, because I don't have one right now. (I'm supposed to be getting one soon). Right now everything's hand-sewn...

I cut the black & white striped sleeves off another shirt and sewed them on a plain blue tank top, then I made the pink heart logo by drawing a heart on pink fabric, cutting it in half and then sewing it back together, (oh-so-emo ^_^). I sewed the logo on, and I originally had black electric tape trim sewn on the wide collar, but after a few washes that came off...

Intro

I'm using LiveJournal cause I like to sew clothes and I wanted to find a place to put pics up and stuff, and to find other people who like to sew for possible collaborations and maybe to even sell some of my stuff. I already have a DeviantART where I post all my stuff. I only have a few things up right now but I'm planning on adding a lot more as I make more things. Well I guess now I'll get to posting my projects.

Oh yeah and by the way, none of the dates are right. The latest is at the bottom, oldest up top. I wanted to keep the intro on top.. there needs to be an option on here for this...
