Aliens wear vintage fashions......and sew.....

It goes.......
here's the next pattern I'm using .......
I bought it from etsy seller....... rotarydial


I fell in love because of the little arm bands on the blue dress.....

I think this will highlight my tats....
Ha!
But when I got the pattern it really really creeped me out.....
Not the scribbling on it ....someone was having a Designer moment, clearly...

and it wasn't the Big Big Big Pockets which of course makes me think of erin at DressADay....
tho she's on to shirtdresses!!

No, it's the 3 Alien Sisters......
kinda like the Andrews sisters,,,,,,,,,,but these girls are curiously devoid of all but iris ........
just Big Blue Blobs where their eyes should be......
kinda like this......song....

Good lordy, if I make the blue arm band version .....
would I also have to wear a cord around my neck with an apple glued to it ???

City Arts Love Me Best......

So the Volcrapo won't deliver to me......But I was first to get the NEW City Arts mag in all of Tacoma.
So eat me.
And because I'm a nice person , I saved all the old issues from months back for them.
.......................oh yeah, me and my neighbors are in it.......................
Now I do know that giving away freebies and deeeeep discounts is nice. This is how my day started:
First I read this......Retro fashion guide makes navigating Web easier
in the News Tribune.....(who loves me..since I've been in the paper a few times, as well as my kids and my husband...)
and I know for a fact.....golly Life is Weird ! that at least one of the online ebay sellers she profiles in the article is a crook and a half.......
see, I 've been selling on feebay for a long time and I know vintage clothes and Most Important ! I don't lie.......I have no ability to bullshit you. I'm a very bad actress.
So Can you say IRONY ???
I emailed the writer of the article......and directed her to the link....of the ensuing discussion on the topic of crooky online vintage clothing sellers........I got a lovely reply......Which is more than I can say for the Volcrapo.

And on and on and on it goes.........
So.......
on to new business........
been to Woody's yet? me neither.
But I was out with Gio and pals the other night......
and he said "lets go to the HUB!".......
but we didn't we made plans to go, but not yet.and now the chef and stuff have left...so what the Hey !!!!
