It suppose to be Spring now, I bought the chocolate eggs and bunnies to prove it. Non the less there is a snow storm outside. I want it to be warm enough to not have to wear tights. BUT its also nice to have an actual reason to wear my plastic boots.

I am working on a small clothing line for Springs Fashion Stroll, May 21st. Here are some sketches.

I've begun sewing and so far I've finished some shorts. Woo! I'm quite proud of how cute they turned out.

I decided to make the line because as is I spend so much time sewing. At first I designed a small line that I thought was "Marketable". Then I realized I might as well just do my own thing, or else it wouldn't be as enjoyable. My "own thing", is basically sweet Americana prints and fabrics with cut-out and fabric harnesses. I think that the combination of the two really balances out. I'm not so worried about whether people love and buy it but, I would like them to. I just want to make something I like and can be proud of.

SIDENOTE: Yesterday I meet the artist Jeff Hein! I had booked him for a High School program I've created and am facilitating for the Salt Lake Art Center. His studio is AMAZING! He told me he bought it 3 years ago and it use to be a porn studio. I thought hmm... no wonder it so nice. The house porn built. The night before I meet him I couldn't sleep, I was SO nervous. Im just too anxious of a person, I need to calm down. He also thought I was right out of High School. I wonder what I really do look like to other people. Luckily everything went smoothly.
