http://gurdymonkey.livejournal.com/747443.html
Contemplations of a Closet Curmudgeon. The mountains are calling and I must go. Mar 16th, 2014 at 8:03 PM. Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul. - John Muir. To add insult to injury, Thursdays dinner gave me the trots and I was up most of the night dealing with that as well as elbow pain despite icing it and taking ibuprofen. The approach was simultaneously heartbreaking and inspiring: I drove through a portion of...

So here is my current project for your enjoyment :). My inspiration is this fabulous Edwardian (1910-1919) swimsuit in the Kent State Museum:. First up; my pattern pieces I drafted:. I also altered my pocket-belt thingy a little and cut it out! I also cut out bloomers last night :) They're huge, but I want poofy gathered bloomers so hopefully ...

Blouse assignment for school - Dress Diaries
http://dressdiaries.livejournal.com/584841.html
One stitch at a time! Blouse assignment for school. It's been ages since I took the time for a dress diary and since I'm not busy at all with my final assignments for school, here it is. (I mean, I've got plenty of time for making a dress diary, since I only. Have to make a lined summer coat in a week. /sarcasm). But muses come and go and after buying the initial fabrics and haberdashery, the journey didn't quite go as planned. 2 meters cotton: € 14,90. 15 buttons: € 2,70. Thread: € 3,40. I tried my best...

Cranach Dress - Complete - Dress Diaries
http://dressdiaries.livejournal.com/584000.html
One stitch at a time! Cranach Dress - Complete. I've been working on an early 16th century southern German (Saxony) noblewoman's dress for about three years and finally, FINALLY, finished it so ta da! You can see the full Flickr album of way too many photos: here. R-you-call-it as a separate piece and had a rectangle of linen on my back it was tied to (it seemed to just fit better that way; just tied it tended to bunch up and pins were annoying me. Is this correct? I love how the feathers look on the hat.

All quiet on the Western Front... - Raven's Nest
http://raven-knits.livejournal.com/11974.html
All quiet on the Western Front. May 12th, 2012. Hmmm, been quite a while since I’ve said anything here. Viola will be released chart-version only, in three sizes. Tsuga will be released chart- and written-version, but one size only - she can be sized up or down by changing yarn weight, and I’ll try to give % of yarn estimations for each section. As always, these plans are subject to change P). 2012-05-12 03:43 pm (UTC). 2012-05-13 03:05 am (UTC). 2012-05-13 12:52 pm (UTC). Powered by LiveJournal.com.

the most beautiful December holiday tradition: a proper eggnog - The Most Beautiful Things

The Most Beautiful Things. According to Mike Selinker. Thing of the past. The most beautiful December holiday tradition: a proper eggnog. Dec 25th, 2011 at 9:17 AM. A correctly made eggnog, made with a half gallon of store-bought or handmade eggnog (milk, raw eggs, and sugar), a half gallon of French vanilla ice cream, liberal amounts of dark rum or cognac, and a heaping of nutmeg. That's not the point. I have been making this for nigh on thirty Christmases, having been taught the recipe by my mom's soon...

Get in line, son, theres five million waitin. 16 June 2010 @ 11:50 am. Why is all of the advertising that I'm getting on my Livejournal suddenly offering me 'hot'* women? I will get around to posting r.e. my "Summer Wander Around Scotland" plans, soon (as soon as I have. All of my kids passed their oral English exam - no idea how. In certain cases, but there you go. A week and a half of work to go! Then I get a WHOLE TWO DAYS before I launch into my summer course. Which is to say, according to them.

July and August Plans - Raven's Nest
http://raven-knits.livejournal.com/12061.html
July and August Plans. July 10th, 2012. Mmm, been a while, hasn’t it. So this month is a pretty intense month of swatching and tweaking charts, and producing the written instructions, and having the series of updated patterns ready to launch before the Games begin. I’m also toying with a dragon-patterned double-knit scarf, also for late-autumn/early winter release. What, you didn’t think I only knitted shawls, did you? 2012-07-10 11:57 pm (UTC).
