Planning

Oh, my boyfriend and I are planning big things with our internet existence! :)

You might know our site BeMyGoth.com - we're planning on a complete make-over.. And we're not doing it ourselves. We really want it up and running, and frankly, we've found ourselves to be unable to do the job properly, so we're hiring someone to do it for us. And hopefully it'll be so great that we'll see some ROI. ;P That would be SWEET!

I've had a period with illness (again) and I blame the lack of D-vitamin in my body. It causes me to be infected very easily... But now I'm on lots and lots of D-vitamin, so hopefully I won't get so easily sick in the future. ;P

I haven't made anything the last couple of days, but the creativity is springing up again, whilst getting better - so soon I'll be sewing again. (and I have an assignment in school - so I'll have to sew anyway).

Just thought I'd blabber a bit, since it had been a while.

Have a nice Sunday. :)

Back To Life

I'm finally done with the suit I've been working on. I'm having my first day off in a week or so from sewing. *phew* I'm really happy with the outcome, and I hope the one who'll own the suit, will like it as well. :)

Here are some pictures:

The Jacket

The Dress from the side.

A small pocket hidden in the seam. ;P

And a matching purse. :)








I rather enjoy making bags and purses - I think I'm going to more about that. :)

It has taken me about 50 hours to make all these things. I think I can say for sure, that I won't be a tailor, as such. I mean - I like sewing for other people, but sometimes it's just too hard work. I think I'd rather make my own collections or sell unique designs. I think that would be lots of fun. :)

Working

*phew*
Being busy is a tough one.
I'm busy sewing the suit for my boss, and tomorrow is the big "new bishop-day" at church. Pretty intense. :)

I should like to show more pictures in this blog, so I'm going to practise taking pictures and upload them (after tomorrow and after I've finished the suit). It's going to take the rest of today and tomorrow, I'm sure. :) And then I'll be some more on the internet as well.... and I really need to go out and exercise too... phew - being sick is really not good for you health or your belly...hehe.. I'll start skating, yay!

Actually I skated to work today - it was rather fun. I'm looking forward to gaining more balance though. Can be hazardous near other people...

Anyhoo - just an update.... ;P

Course Of Life

I'm kind of deciding where my life is leading me... it's a very interesting place to stand - where I am right now. I feel like I'm at a crossroad, and whichever road I take will lead me somewhere unexpected.

Yes... that's about it for now. :)

I'll keep you updated on which way I'll go.

New Layout & Blabber

I thought I'd just motivate myself by searching for something more lively. And I think I found what I wanted (for now). :)

I've just begun the creation of a dress and a jacket for a person I know - I'm pretty excited about it. And I'll definitely post pictures when I'm done.

(I'll just post a couple of updates here...)

I lost my hat.... :/ And I didn't get to take a picture of it - but I'll make a new one. It was a bit too big anyway.

I've bought a skateboard - so now and in the future I'll be known as the skating seamstress. hehe...

I've taken a blood test at the doctors, and they say I lack D3 vitamins, so I've just started taking D3 vitamins yesterday. If I didn't the result might be fragile muscles and bones when I get older - and it's causing tiredness... I'd like to avoid that. ;P

We've got a new assignment at school - we're to make a show dress, and the theme is: the past meets the future. I'm thinking old-skool designs with plastic materials? maybe... haven't decided yet.

I'm considering taking a leave from my school... about half a years leave, so I can concentrate on this. On the internet. I'm getting a bit tired of not having any money.... *sighs*

I'm going to sing for the Queen of Denmark on Sunday. A new bishop is being ... what's it called... "put in". The old bishop resigned and a new one is taking his place... :) So our choir will sing for our Queen. woohoo. ;P

Just thought I'd write something again to get the feeling of writing in a blog again - it's been a while. ;P

Missed School Today

I missed school today, unfortunately - but I just didn't have the energy or motivation to get out of the door this morning. AND I woke up too late. I guess I still have a bit of depression in me... I've been a little sad today - but it didn't stop me from thinking creative.
In my sadness I wound all my ribbons onto cardboard pieces, and it took about 4-5 hours, phew!!! I'll post some pictures of my organized stuff when I feel done (which I suppose I'll never be, hehe).

Yesterday I made a hat, while watching movies, it was rather nice. I'll post a picture as well, when I have taken one.

And this evening I've been working on the construction of a dress for my boss (who has ordered a dress with me, yay). She's coming over tomorrow to see if she likes it, and to fit it - and then we're going shopping for fabrics. :) I'll definitely post a picture of the finished dress, when I'm done! I'm pretty excited about this dress.

I've started to search for other creative blogs, and it's awesomely inspiring! Hopefully I'll be as inspiring as well one day. There are so many creative people out there, and so many things one can create, wow! I'd like to live longer, so I might be able to learn just a tiny part of everything.. *sigh*.

Anyway - I'm feeling better now that it's evening, but I'm quite tired, so I'll be off to bed for now. I'll write some more tomorrow and post some pictures.

Sleep tight! <3

Coco Avant Chanel

I have just watched Coco Avant Chanel, and I find it very inspiring.
I just love watching movies where you follow a character (fiction or non), who start off with nothing and just grows to be a successful person in whatever he or she finds interesting. I've always admired people who live their dream, and don't comprise their happiness for anything. That's exactly what I want to do (and I am trying). And I still do admire these people, and hopefully one day, I'll be one of them too. :)

I just learned that she was the woman who got women out of the corset - I am considering being the one who puts them back in! ;P I just love what the corset does to your waist, it's beautiful!

I'm definitely having my own fashion house one day. ;P

But today, I'm trying to relax some more, for tomorrow I have a busy day creating a pattern for a costumer of mine. :) So I'm now going to watch another movie and probably knit or sew something small.
