Marlo Whetsel

The world is a disaster right now. But, would someone tell my body that it does not mean you can’t accomplish anything. I am in full shutdown mode. I dabbled at a bit of sewing. I am currently trying to work on a D&D one shot. But, I just keep finding myself watching the chickens out the window.

I’m struggling really hard the last few weeks. I have been out of my blood pressure meds for a few weeks, and I’m sure that is part of the problem. I have an appointment on Monday so I can get my refills. Hopefully my butterfly rash is flared up so I can get some answers. It’s mildly agitated today.

I finished my “Marlo as a Witch” design! #renfairegarb #costumedesign

If you want to find the way to my heart, these are the way to do it!

Game night! I finally feel like I am getting my DMing feet under me, again.

The bustle is done!

Getting there… I used the directions from American Duchess.

It does indeed contain happiness!

I am trying to knock out projects that have been just sitting there. I put the ruffles on the inside of this lobster tail bustle, rather than the outside where it actually goes. So, fixing it is next. Then, on to mending and hemming for a customer. After that, making stuffed animals and bow ties.

All that’s left is the stomacher. I would work on it. But, I do believe it’s time for Benadryl and a nap.

Drool……..

My garb I wore for Pirate Weekend at TRF a couple of years ago.

It’s eyelet time. #sewist #historicalfashion #handsewn #1730sfashion

She’s the chicken equivalent of a brick house.

She’s almost done! She just needs grommets. If I find what I did with the rest of the fabric, I may add winged cuffs.

Nom…

So many pins…

So, for my first post, I thought it should be something deep and poignant. So, here goes. I bought a Gandalf rubber duck for my sewing space!
