Gone with the wind inspired steampunk

I started working on my a bunch of projects today,

1.) Commission Rei plug suit
I worked on the pattern making and emailed the commissioner about a sending her a lycra muslin to check fitting

2) Prize for a Cobra Baroness contest a cobra side bag
I patterned the bag yesterday and cut out the fabric today as well as the cobra logo, still working out its full construction in my head.

3) Christmas present which is a very special project to me, I am making my dad's brother's and sisters and my mom and aunt a small quilt hanging made from my dad's clothe's they were the only things pam gave me after he passed away. I want everyone to have something special and I couldn't think of a better way to recycle the clothes.

4) My private project a Civil war/Gone with the wind inspired steampunk outfit I love the dress shilouttes for this era and have been dieing to make something from it for a while. I started on the undergarments from a pattern I already had, I don't see why I should do everything from scratch the dress and hoop skirt will be fully patterned by my self but the chemise, bloomers, corset, and pettie coat are from a pre-maid pattern. I'm only using fabrics I already have or trying to.

Other then that I went to work zone and may have a prom dress to make which will be nice I would rather work at sewing and the restaurant then the mine or the mill

this is just one of the dress's I love from the period, and I love all the dress's from this movie I would die to get my hands on a art book for it. 

yep thats me with lots going on lol 

all inspired and happy

Sleepy

Not much today other then the kids are sleeping over so I have a snuggle buddy names Fesik ( named after Andrey the giants character in the Princess Bride ) ( sorry if thats all spelled wrong) a little fussy Pomeranian. But he loves me :)

Worked a closing shift, the girl showing me to close did most the closing things but I can pick up more of it next time cause I  close alone soon I think :/

Tomorrow I set up my sewing room period !!!!

yeah 

Day three at Bill'ys and Learning to drive standard

I forgot to mention I'm learning to drive standard and have been for the past few days ^_^ I think I'm picking it up pretty well but my uncle is a little annoying when it comes to teaching the first day he had a lollipop in his mouth which was just frustrating, and he repeats not to let the clutch off to fast which is impossible when his clutch basically pushes your foot off. I get frustrated when I don't know something and between driving and the restaurant its been a huge test my aunt hasn't gone threw how to do things its learning on the spot and when it is as busy as it was to day and I can't get her attention its frustrating I would rather her just tell me how to do it all first and show me so I'm prepared.

Tomorrow I wanted to set up my sewing room but apparently I will be helping with the yard sale so I hope that is not to long so I can do it after wards. I agree to do yard sales and stuff so I can meet the people around town, and get to know everyone and so people don't stare at me like who's that ??

any one today was pretty frustrating but now its time for a movie and reading maybe then sleep with my mound of teddy's

and I like leaving you with photos so here is how I feel today ( I will be leaving you kitty photos with posts)

Day two at Bill'ys

Not much has happened giving up sugar went bad today as I had a coke and cookies and ice cream is waiting to be eaten with readying my book, but on the other had I only eat fruit and drank water all day at work.

Work is good I have to stay away from the gossiper's they can be bad, and other then that I love the customers very sweet people and I love the small town ^-^ I picked up an extra shift tomorrow since the girl that was doing the shift I now have recked her knee or something. Any who more tips and money for me ^-^ means less student loans and closer to being debt free :D

Started feeding the horses hay today since its getting stingy out there for grassing, Macho and Rusty are big bully's though and I ended up hand feeding Kida since they wouldn't let her near :(

other then that Im really enjoying my book and need to get my sewing area up and such for sewing

New Friends

Ok yes this will seam lame but my new friends are 4 horses 3 cats and 1 dog

this post is to introduce them, I was going to do this post tomorrow but I have to drive to Vancouver and back to pick up my cousin, and will probably do some fabric shopping and pick up a few other things as well. And pick up some things from a friends who let me store stuff there for a biy.

 Max or Maxy 

He likes to play with the horses in a way that makes you think they aren't playing, and he also protects us and the cats from Bears and Coyotes and all other bad stuff.

 Shadow

 he's a very pretty kitty but he did not want to pose for the camera, and then he started eating my shoe lace lol. He's so much bigger then Misty ( to be introduced) its silly they are brother and sister and just got fixed. Not sure how old they are, but they are cute adorable kittens and they help me not miss mine so much but at the same time I miss mine more.

 Misty 

Shadows little sister, she's super loving just like her brother and they always come running to the barn when I go over hoping for some treats. 

 Pooky 

( can't think of how to spell it) She was limping around to day her legs not broken but she can't walk on it or run fast so I'm worried for her. She's very much an out door cat though and it was hard to get any photos of her after taking her to see my uncle.

This is one of the squirrel who has a nest of babies in a place my aunt isn't to happy about, he yells down from the rafters and gets chased by Max. There are a couple Ravens I hope to get some pictures of soon, they are beautiful.

 Macho 

yep he was a roping horse, but his owner Bob Lin my uncle Bob's friend has a bad hip and can't ride him much any more, but Macho is a good horse kinda like a dog he'll fallow you EVERY where you go lol and he's very sweet.

 Tye 

my horse ( dubed by my uncle) he get's picked on by the other horses I think that might be why he is so tubby ( eating problem ) Its the same thing as getting teased and bullied by people you turn to something comforting ( he also needs a lot of work though) I'm working on it. 

Rusty 

the big boss, he runs the little herd of horses. He can be pretty demanding and Uncle Bob docent get much time to ride him but he's still looking very good he's a very handsome horse. 

Kida 

She's the old lady of the herd and the only girl, she was a boarded horse but the lady could never get her back into a horse trailer after she got her there, because the floor boards had fallen out of the old one and she had ridden the entire trip with her hove's on the edges of the trailer. 

The Truck I drive ( till I learn standard ) 

Macho has one two tone eye, I don't think he can see out of it very well cause he gets a little strange and always likes to look at me with his other eye ball 

Macho's Noise ( smelling the camera to make sure its safe lol ) 

Such a Diva lol 

( I was going to upload a video for you but since the internet here is like retardly slow I will do so when I have better internet or am some where else ) 

Hope you enjoyed meeting everyone
