http://cindiasaurus.blogspot.com/2011/03/renfest-is-in-town-again-so-here-is-my.html

Tuesday, March 1. Ye ole fashion blog. The Renfest is in town again, and in honor, I will share a medieval post! A few years ago, my friend purchased a red peasant top and a blue corset from the festival. She had a friend who was a teacher that asked her to help chaperon a a highschool field trip to the festival, and she decided to dress up for the kids. She didn't have a skirt to go with her corset top, so she asked me to make her one. I finished off the waist band with elastic, and the skirt was done!

fashion machine.: July 2008

http://cindiasaurus.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html

Thursday, July 31. Little thriftshop of horrors. So for my birthday, my boyfriend. And I went thrifting all day. I was hoping to find a crazy skirt or some old jewelery, but the thrift stores around here are mostly lame. We did however go to the new Plato's Closet, which to be honest was in some respects more expensive than the mall, but I found a cute tank for only $3! The colors look really good with my skin tone and it has a racer back! For those of you who are magic fans:. That was about to implode&#...

Sunday, January 30. I am the bracelets you sport, everything you have ever missed, and more. For my birthday this year my mom got me subscriptions to two magazines: a diy clothes magazine and a diy jewelry magazine. This bracelet was inspired by one of the articles in the jewelry magazine. I started by sewing together a few scraps of pink and black fabric as a base. The blue flower was taken from scraps of a dress I remodeled ( see this blog post. The bracelet is really soft and super comfortable. I figu...

Thursday, January 1. So this is the new year, but i don't feel any different. A while ago when my Nana came to visit, she gave me a bunch of crazy old lady dresses that I could cut up and play around with. While I was waiting around for the New Years Eve festivities to start, I decided to make a new outfit for the occasion. I didn't think to take a picture of me wearing it before I started cutting it up. I combined it with a little bit of fabric Jimmie gave me for Christmas. 2 things we'd like to tell you.

fashion machine.: tips & tricks: short cuts that aren't really short cuts

http://cindiasaurus.blogspot.com/2011/02/tips-tricks-short-cuts-that-arent.html

Thursday, February 24. Tips and tricks: short cuts that aren't really short cuts. When you teach yourself a new art, you often miss out on the tips and tricks that you would get from a teacher. So, for those of you teaching yourself to sew solely by written or video tutorials, I am going to start posting tips and tricks that I've learned along the way. Lolz, not really. Okay, not at all. Trying to save time DOES NOT EVER SAVE TIME. Baste pleats, hems, large continuous sections, zippers, gathered sections...
