Freakin DIY blogs.


I really, really hate blogs, and bloggers, and the whole shenanigans. See? I already sound like a blogger. I'm going to try my hardest not to.
See, the problem is....I have a new obsession. And it's called DIY. So, that's why I'm posting-it's quite possible that this is going to turn into one of those crazy "Look what I did, and look at how easy it would be for you to do, too!" blogs, jus
t minus all the followers and the dumb "blogging language".
But alright, here's my first official proje
ct, I'm so excited!! I got an email from ModCloth today about all their 70's inspired clothes. I decided to take a look, and found this:
I think it's so dang cute!!! But $104 is a little out of my price range right now.......but guess what other emails I got today? One from McCalls and one from Butterick about their $2.99 patterns for this week! McCalls' was M6346 and Butterick's was B5644. Hello!! Combine the two!! And then you basically have this dress. I'm gonna try to see if I can make it more modest, too. We'll see. I probably struggle following basic patterns-trying to combine two? Yeah, might be a little out of my level of expertise. I guess we'll find out!!
