Not THAT kind of mood, but you know, the MOOD to create! I was recently at Mood Fabrics in NYC (as seen on Project Runway people) and I left feeling inspired! (Don't fret, it's just a 5 minute walk down 7th Ave from the Times Square station to 37th Street!) The newest item on my favorite/wish/gotta-have-it-now list (in case you were looking to buy me a little treat) is a professional dress form. I wanna pin, drape, gather, pleat, wrap and cut fabric to make one of a kind 34B cup styled garments. I'll tackle the sewing part after I figure out how to get this perfectly tailored frock off the mannequin. Anywho, this joint has more (and better quality) fabrics for fashion than I have ever set my green eyes upon! Plus they have incredible buttons and zippers and of course handles for the handbag line I plan on designing. My head was spinning with ideas, if only my execution could hold a candle... I can't wait to get started right after I sleep, eat, work, exercise, clean my house, hang out with my pals, take care of my dog, grocery shop, garden and blog (in no particular order I may add). Rarraaahhhh, fierce!

Settle down there Martha, you already make the rest of us look inept. Loves....
Oh Oh Oh! Right up my alley....
I JUST made the JJ Blouse (FREE pattern on Burdastyle.com Check it out) Except instead of the ruffles I put piping in the princess seams and on the sleeves before the cap, added little pocket tops and did a two button arrangement down the front. Hello! Cute, and around 8 bucks. Believe me, i feel your excitement, I'm a little obsessed. Just a little.
I share your drive for creativity and unfortunately your list of chores (well that plus three kids)! I have designed my label and logos--priorities!!
