Valentine's Day Fashion Show...

I have neglected to put up the items I made for the Lover's Leap Valentine's Day Fashion Show in February of 2009... I made such wonderful things, and all recycled from clothing such as t-shirts, skirts, pants, and costume accessories! Here are some pictures from the show:

BIG news!!!

I am officially showing and selling my designs at Thread in San Diego on April 3rd! I am so excited for this opportunity and I know it will be a great success! Mark your calendars because this is an event you won't want to miss, tons of up-and-coming designers selling their products at discounted and wholesale prices, music, food, drinks, hair & makeup booths, and much more! For more information and directions please go to threadshow.com!

Making my way through my Summer 2010 lingerie line... I've got about 2.5 completed sets...and still plenty of fabric to go through and whip out amazing pieces. It's coming along so well!

I ordered a dressform on Amazon about a week ago, they had been out of stock of the one I wanted for about a month and FINALLY got it back in. It won't be here for a few weeks but I can't wait until it finally arrives!!!

A week from today I'm leaving for Maine to visit Andrew's family and pick up my daughter. Maybe I'll get some inspiration while there for a fall line that I can start sketching up....

Happy Friday everyone!

I ordered the fabric and trimmings today for my Spring lingerie line!!! YAYYYY!!! The awesome part is that it's from a fabric store in Santa Cruz so it'll be here by the end of the week! I'm so excited to finally start a project...it's been too long! My dad is the best, he bought the fabric so I could go ahead with this! I'm gonna get you guys pumped for this because it's going to be freakin' amazing. Now I just need to find a venue for a fashion show....

A New Year!!

I haven't been on here in MONTHS to update....but just to bring you back up to speed this is what's been going on in my life and creative world:

-Riley was the CUTEST little cupcake for Halloween, seriously, I have never seen a more adorable costume on a toddler before.
- I started working at Old Navy part time, and learning more and more about the retail world that I will hopefully be moving up into a higher position.
- An absolutely amazing person came back into my life, and I honestly can't stop thinking about him and how much he inspires me to be myself and be creative and live life to the fullest.
- I'm currently living at my parent's house in California. I seriously couldn't be happier to be so far away from snow.
- Riley started preschool and she has already learned so much!
- I went to Seattle to visit for the weekend, and fell in love with a whole new city.

And lastly....I have started working on my spring/summer lingerie line!!! I'm so extremely excited about it....the pieces are amazing and I would wear every single piece and feel ridiculously sexy in them. I can't wait to be finished with them and have the opportunity to show them!

I hope everyone is having a fantastic day, because I am!

I'll keep you updated with my progress =)

Shooting the Moon

So as of late, I have finished a gunmetal gray scarf, as well as a black baby cowl. They are so cute. I'm hoping that they'll get more of those yummy deep fall colors at the stores so I can make more of those opposed to colors they've had in stores forever. Guess we'll see, huh? I'm loving this hunter green yarn...definitely going to be the new project.

I'm currently listening to the New Moon Soundtrack, and am seriously feeling inspired. I know it sounds so very cliche, but I really want to visit Forks, WA and of course, Seattle. There's just something about that cloudy state that is making my heart flutter. The lush greens of the trees and surrounding vegetation, layering and all things having to do with cold weather. As much as I don't like having to live in that constantly, visiting it is perfectly ok by me =)
