Anime Detour Dealer? I hope!

New skirts, still haven't heard back about Anime Detour. I am planning on attending as a dealer. I have plenty more fun skirts for people!!!

A New Year Finally!

I cannot believe that I haven't posted anything since early last fall. Actually, I can. Those that are close to my know what has been going. Honestly, too much to talk about right now. And I am trying to put things behind me and just move on. :)

So, I am finishing up way overdue orders, thank you guys for being so patient. And I have applied for Anime Detour here in the Twin Cities. I haven't heard back either way, I am hoping for a "Yes" because I have designs sketched out and am ready to roll. And I will be applying for "CON" (Convergence) when the applications are ready. I am really looking forward to both conventions. No new pictures to post right now. I will hopefully have some cool skirts posted next week. One of the posters for Anime Detour is a character wearing a dress/skirt that is a mini-petti. Hello! Of course I will be making those! White with candy pink. Too fun, can't wait to start!

Thank You!!

I just wanted to thank everyone for their patience while my family deals with a personal issue. I can't say much, but things are getting better so that is very positive. Thank you to my customers for having patience with me getting behind on orders. Thank you for your well wishes.

I am almost totally caught up this week, which is a huge relief. Only a few more skirts! The company that I order from has new colors (very cool!) and I have ordered some to have on hand. The periwinkle is very pretty- it is a light blue/light purple mix. It reminds me of fairy's. Also, the marroon is beautiful- very deep. Check out the color chart on the right sight of this, you can click on it to enlarge it.

As always, please email with ANY questions. Again, thanky you to everyone for being patient with me while dealing with our family emergency. Thank you!! Carla

Too cute!!

June Already!

I cannot believe that I didn't enter any posts in the month of May. And now June is in full swing! What have I been up to? Plenty. I did some really cool skirts for Rebekah @ ImagesEverlasting.com. Fun! And now I am finishing up some awesome skirts for some ladies attending CONvergence July 1-4. I have to get my butt in gear and finish those skirts! Those are fun! Fuchsia and bright mint, solid fuchsia (to go under a skirt with a bustle)that matches her super cute corset- fun combinations and colors!! I will post pics when I am all done. Off to sew....

Sunday, May 2, Tillies Bean

Wow, the time is just flying! I will be doing a "trunk show" this Sunday, May 2, 12-4 @ Tillie's Bean:
1931 Nicollet Ave, 55404 (just north of Franklin)

I am excited! I will be with Valkyrie Design Studio and Tout de Sweet. I will have a pretty good selection of skirts with me, but as always I prefer to do custom skirts. There are SO many color combinations (and sizes) that it would be hard to keep everything on hand. I am really excited because I have a few new skirts that I have done just for this show. One is fuchsia over white with TONS of ruffles, another is mermaid (like Tiffany blue) with white. I also have some solid colors made up as well.

I hope to see you guys there! Tell your friends! Also, Tillie's bean does not "use any ingredient that a five year old cannot sound out". Awesome! Keepin' it local and simple.

St. Paul Art Crawl

Busy, busy, busy. Wow! I am getting ready for the St. Paul Art Crawl which is coming up next week already. I have SO many ideas swirling in my brain, but just not enough hours in the day to complete everything!! Why do I need sleep, why?!

The Art Crawl is April 23,24,25. Different times, check the website: http://www.stpaulartcrawl.org/

I will be in the Carleton building, 1st floor. It is right off of 94 and 280, on University. There is a map on the website of the Art Crawl- right hand side. Look under resources, then catalog or map (catalog has some awesome pictures and a listing of the artists participating). I will be with 2 other artists: Tout de Sweet and Valkyrie Designs. Amazing, specialty chocolates and beautiful, creative jewelery and hair pieces and more.

I am really looking forward to this, but I wish I had more time to prepare. I will get done what I can and that is all I can do. :)
