Hey hey hey!  So finally the dress designs that I've been meaning to post.  Photos are kinda bad thou...

Awesomeness this way... )
 

And I have picked up another part time job!  10 hours a week in the mornings mon-fri working as a Teacher's Aide at a primary school.  I will be working mainly with a really cute little girl who is five and has a cochlear implant.
That starts this Monday from 9 to 12:30 then rush over to Tech from 1 to 3.  Then on Wed, Thurs and Fri I also have work 5pm to 1:30am.  I am going to die on Wed and Thurs... (Friday has no Tech, but instead I have my cleaning job for 2 hours... ;_; )

TADAAAAH!!!!

So it's winter here but I'm making summer dresses... *is crazy*



          

Next is the orange shirt-dress and a blue with white polka dot dress.  Slightly more winter appropriate. ^_^

These are the pieces for the jacket. 
The first pic has the back --> then the front pieces.  The second pic has the sleeve --> the pocket piece and the collar.



The finished jacket!  It was far too big for Dad and when I tried it on it was pretty funny how big it was.  Not 8XL by any means but waaay bigger than the supposed XL it was supposed to be. 

    

The next project is the skirt which I've started on - I've cut it out and started sewing it - and will update with photo's when it's finished (sometime this week I should think ^_^)  I'll try to take more in progress photos this time. ^^

I have been a busy little bee lately.  Class is getting more interesting as we cut out the polar fleece jacket on Thursday and will get to start sewing on Monday.  Yay!  I took photos of the cutting process of the class:

This is laying out the pattern blocks and drawing around them with chalk.  The random objects are to hold the fabric and pattern from moving.


starting the cutting process and another piece (the arm I believe) nearly completely cut out.
 

I will take photos on Monday of the individual pieces and what the pattern says it should look like finished. ^_^

Well in other excitement.
Last week's nails were pretty cute:

I don't have a photo of my nails at the moment but on Saturday (the day before my birthday!) I went and got my nails done at a salon with acrylics.  They look pretty funky.  I'll take a photo soon-ish... XDD

[livejournal.com profile] putana is very naughty for getting me caught up in watching Supernatural.  I have devoured the first 5 seasons and am up to the sixth which I will catch up with soon-ish. I think Cas is kick arse.  Definitely my fav character.  Although I got her hooked on Criminal Minds so I guess it's a bit of a fair trade... XDDD

I have applied with some other places in town and hopefully I'll here back and get some other work so I can say "fuck you" to my current job.  That would be OMS brilliant.

Those that are in Japan - I hope you are all safe!  I haven't heard back from Y-chan yet and I know she's in Osaka but her brother and his wife and their two gorgeous kids live in Tokyo.  Be safe!
[livejournal.com profile] unjaundiced keep safe and away from the tsunami. Don't try stealing a waka/surfboard/yacht/sailboat/arc to make your way to NZ. It just wouldn't be your best idea... XD

Right I'm sure that there was more I was going to blah blah on about here but can't remember what...oh yeah!  The boring woman from the first aid course.  She was such an opinionated freak that thought she knew best about everything.  Such an annoying woman. It didn't help that I had *such* a headache today that I was nearly falling asleep in class today.  It was soooooo boring thou too!!!

Boohoo I have work tomorrow and Sunday.  I mean it's good that I've got work which means money to save but otherwise I can't really be arsed. *sigh*

And I still haven't heard from my professor...I need to know whether or not I can write the essay on the topic I want to.  Get back to me already!!! D:

Well time to sign off and get to sleep.  Earth don't fall apart any more while I'm asleep 'kay thanx.

Well I've been sewing quite a lot lately and bought quite a few new patterns too.  Here's a list of the patterns used with the finished piece!  Thanks to mum I'm getting better and am able to figure out more how to alter the patterns so that they fit over my bust better without then being too big/small anywhere else.  Also I'm so happy with my sewing dummy RED (yes I named her, not very original thou).  I was playing with her dials today and getting all the measurements right for me.  The only thing that is different is the body length one.  Don't know how to change the body height on her (from neck to waist)....:Sewing Pictures:. )
