Things I've Made

Just for fun.

Doily made for a Family Reunion Door Prize

Just before Ernest proposed to me, I had a dream.  I don't remember much about it, other than this scene.  I can't draw well at all, but it is fun to do sometimes.

Drawn from a picture, and modified a bit.  My parents on my father's baptismal day.

A recurring nightmare I had for a while.  This creepy little guy would come down some weirdly crooked stairs, and no one could see him but me.  I specifically remember the lighting in the dream, though that doesn't come across in the drawing.

My first costume I really made.  Well, maybe not the first.  I also did a Star Trek Voyager costume (made without a pattern!) that I wore one Halloween.  I still have it somewhere, though I'm pretty sure I never got a picture wearing it.

I made this for my niece.

Another Ren Fest dress.  I also made one that was similar but dressier for my ex-sister-in-law to wear as her wedding dress.  I wish I had a picture of that dress.  It was cool.

I made this one for another niece.

Not the best picture, but I made my bridesmaid's dress for Lori's wedding.

I also made my bridesmaid's dress for Ayslin's wedding.  Again, not the best picture.  But I like the dress.

And I made my wedding dress. I loved this Vogue pattern, but it wasn't modest enough.  I used the basic idea but then designed my own.

The most elaborate dress I've made, Elizabethean style, complete with hoopskirt and boning.  I took gray pearls and attached them to the underskirt in the same pattern as is on the wide lace going down the front/sides of the overskirt.
