no more roses.

I'm finished! I missed my Thursday deadline by about 3 hours but I hope you don't mind.  

After the countless pricks and staying up til the wee hours of the morning making this top, I'm pretty happy with the results.  

I made some edits to the original with the short sleeves.  I also added sheer panels on the sides of the shirt that you cannot see from these awesome quality pictures here but when the sister is back I'll make sure to post up some better pictures. Sorry I didn't do any arm up sexy poses for you guys.

Hope you like it. and HAPPY WEEKEND!!!  

(and happy birthday to my dear friend Stephanie and my favorite niece Maddie. <3)

happy wednesday!

today's post is gonna be a bit of handy dandy arts n crafts.
so i've made a couple dolls in my day and decided to make some for my favorite babies as christmas presents. sadly, the boys weren't too fond of their dolls but the little lady liked her bunny! and although baby e is too young for a reaction, i'd like to think he loved his the most. =] maybe they didn't like that their dolls were made out of socks. maybe they were too distracted by their cool new toys and trucks. but we speculate it's because the color choice was too dark and scary for them. sorry boys!

*note to self: next time use brighter colored socks.

materials used:
socks
gloves
sewing thread
embroidery thread
pillow stuffing
buttons
my fingers

we're almost over the hump!
