I’ve run out of captions. Every cell of thought

I’ve run out of captions. Every cell of thought that comes into my head for writing is going into my WIP (which I hope I can tell you about very soon!). Writing is HARD, y’all. So in the meantime… here’s my new lavender coveralls and some matching book spines (pink to lilac)! Happy #pride🌈 y’all!

I MADE THIS JUMPSUIT. I drafted the pattern, I mad

I MADE THIS JUMPSUIT. I drafted the pattern, I made mockups to make sure the fit was right, I held my breath and used the special fabric I bought just for this jumpsuit and hoped it would fit... and it does!!!!! This is also the cleanest I've put in an invisible zipper. Its bodice is lined, I only messed up twice (okay, three times), and I'm so proudddddd. #jumpsuit #selfdrafted #sewing #handmade

Y’all. I could not sleep last night thinking abo

Y’all. I could not sleep last night thinking about this romper. I needed to hem the shorts to make it finished and I itched to do it at like 2am.

Behold! My first romper. I saw this giant shirt at the thrift store with an interesting print and thought it’d make a cute romper so I bought it. $4.99 and some elbow grease later, here’s the final product!

I made so many mistakes with this one. I started with a zip fly in the front; if I did it again I’d start with an invisible zip in the back. I made buttonholes in the top part but put them sideways instead of up and down. I did make this with a muslin at first so I worked out kinks with sizing (I’d made shorts before but the top was self drafted).

Anyway, I expect I’ll live in this in the summer! It’s so breezy and cute and fun!

Review! After Elias by Eddy Boudel Tan Coen Cara

Review! After Elias by Eddy Boudel Tan

Coen Caraway is getting ready for his wedding to Elias Santos on a beautiful Mexican island when he hears the news: the commercial plane Elias had piloted has gone down in the ocean. Elias’s last words were recorded, a cryptic utterance that makes the world think that he crashed the plane on purpose. Coen’s story weaves back and forth between the present day and the past as he tries to understand his fiancé and himself.

This book was quietly devastating. I love that it was about mental health as well as a love story. The braiding between past and present was done so well that I would probably call author Eddy Boudel Tan a master of his craft. If you have interest in character-driven dramas and having your heart slowly torn out of your chest, pick this one up.
