so i wanted to make a hat. a top hat. the same size as the christmas hats berni and i made last year. now i've learned that mass producing top hats is out of the question. it took me over an hour to make it and it still looked dodgy LOL. i had to undo and rethread and the redo parts cos it was so fiddly haha. after i tried on the hat it looked a bit silly.

i realised i still had a billion years worth of silk chiffon in my room from my major so i ended up making a little bow scarf. the dyeing was so fun.. playing around with colours. i ended up using 3 parts red and 1 part yellow to get the colour. it was really coooool. the annoying part was sewing off the edges. it was like my french seam that i had to do for my major work. french seams with chiffon are freaking.. crazy.

i tied it around my neck and it looked really cool! but then i thought id try it in my hair.. jsut for fun. i ended up wearing it in my hair cos it looked sooo coool xD!

i then proceeded to make a pink kaftan but i realised i had to study. so right now i have a half done silk kaftan lying in my study. i'll prolly finish it after exams.

may sound and look really boring but yeah.. it was annoying (haha) and overall really fun to make! i'm excited for jap to finish so i can get berni sensei to come over and help me with dress making.. :)

okay then.. i have to go finish my tafe portfolio which is due in.. TOMORROW OMG.

tataa!
