Lady Gaga Inspired Sun Glasses
OK! Sooo after I was done making my 2nd pair of sweat pants leggings on July 31st, I started to draw some ideas down, and then I was thinking about lady gaga's outfit in the video 'paparazzi',
of where she's wearing the yellow & mickey mouse ears unitard http://www.styleamor.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/lady-gaga-paparazzi-outfit-1024x636.jpg , and I got an idea to do something to my yellow mustard leggings. I want to draw mickey mouse ears all over it, but spread it out, and then get black circular sequence and sew up the mickey mouse ears! :D In my mind it looks so good, but I'm just hoping when I do it, it will come out decent. LOL :D So I started making a template of the mickey ears, and I cut it out, and I started playing around with the idea of the mickey ears, and put it over my eye glasses, AND OMGOD!!!! I WAS LIKE WHOOOOA!!! THIS IS AWESOME! I THEN GOT AN IDEA TO DO GAGA INSPIRED GLASSES!! :D I quickly did my hair and make up, and asked my twin to take a pic of me, or haha pictures. :D

Sweat Pants Leggings #1
See what I mean the bumpy-ness of the seams? yea bad. Side view, I guess it's not that bad. The back, looks much better than the front view, it's just smoother.
Yessssss....I attempted making leggings out of sweat pants! lol. After I was done making my shirt early July, I wondered what else I can make. And I remember my mom saying in early July, lets one day make pajamas, and I said oh...ok. LOL. And then I though, OHHHH!!!! MAYBE I CAN MAKE LEGGINGS OUT OF MY OLLLD SWEAT PANTS?! I have 4 olllld sweat pants, and all 4 are the same colors, & same thing. lol So I told my mom, that I want to get one of the old sweat pants, and make it into leggings/pj's? and she was cool with it, and said it's easy to make and gave me advice on how to make it. Sooo on July 24th, which was a saturday, I decided to make them. I took my moms advice, wore the sweat pants the opposite way, and pinned the needles on myself, and how tight I want it and what not. I had to do it TWICE!! LOL Because the first time when I pinned it on myself, I made it too tight that I couldn't take off the pants to sew them, so had to re-do it, and make it not so tight. After I took it off, I noticed it wasn't so straight the pants, it was a bit bumpy around where the seams were going to be. I thought to myself, hmmmmm....when you sew, the fabric must be straight, so it will come out straight looking, you know, not all bumpy like sorta over lapping each other? (I'm horrible at explaining. :P ) I didn't listen to myself, and I sewed it, just to see how it was gonna turn out. After I was done sewing, I turned it inside out, wore it, and yayyyy!! It fitted! :) But yea, the seams on the sides weren't smooth. -.- But overall it wasn't that bad, minus the bumpy seams. I wanted to do more with my sweat pants leggings, I had some plaid flannel fabric, and I put it against the leggings, and I liked it, it was cute. So I thought of adding knee patches! :D But before I cut a hole on my leggings, I took pics, and IM SOOOOO GLAD I DID!!! Because, I fucked up on the knee patch. -.- I accidentally cut the knee hole where I was going sew the plaid flannel patch a lil big. -.- Sooo the plaid flannel didn't really match up, which suuuuucked!!!!! But I did sew it on, but yea, there's a lil hole between the sweat leggings and the plaid flannel. -.- Yea, it looks like crap to me. :P I was bummed out, that it didn't turn out good. But also I was GLAD that I took pics, before I fucked it up. But guess what?! I MADE ANOTHER PAIR OF SWEAT PANTS LEGGINGS!! LOL And this time IT CAME OUT PRETTY GOOD! :D I'll take pics of it soon, and post them up on the next or so post! :D

My First Tote Bag :D
I didn't have to make the strap, it was already like that from the flannel shirt, HOW GREAT! :D I sewed in the left pocket first, and then the right one 2nd, and welll I like how the right pocket turned out, because I tried sewing it in a slight different way, than the left pocket. Even though it's a small pocket, it's sewed better. :)
I was also thinking to add on red beads on the center of each ruffle, from the top all the way to the bottom. But I thought, hmm...nah, maybe it would be too much? So yea, left it alone.
Hiii!! In my 2nd post I said I'll show you guys my first big thing I sewed and it's this plaid tote bag! :) sooo... HEREEE IT IS!!! :D I made this over the spring yr of this yr, and it's made from my dads plaid flannel shirt! :D It was pretty easy to make, and I had so much fun making it! :D
I reallly want to make another tote bag, but with a bit stiffer fabric, because the flannel plaid is floppy, you know? yea. :)
Wellll, I don't know what else to say, sooo byyes! :) ♥
