Ahoy, matey!
Check out the custom Bloomers I recently finished! I personally love them. This one was a bit of a challenge because the Skulls & Roses cotton print fabric is not easy to come by particularly where I live. Luckily I was able to snag some at a decent price online. Then, I realized I was completely out the black cluney lace I was going to use to trim these. But, hidden away in my lace stash was just enough of the black & white cluney lace you see here. I've had it so long I don't think it's made anymore. At least, I've yet to find more!
Even with the hiccups, or more like thankfully due to the hiccups, I was able to create a great pair of one-of-a-kind bloomers for a wonderfully patient (and repeat) customer!

Recent Custom Work
Let's see, I don't think I've shown off the custom headband I made for the lovely & talented Miss Connie Faye. It's purple, black & white skull print on one side & black brocade on the other.
I'm currently working on a Hob... erm, tiger buddy companion plush. This pic is before I started hand stitching, yes hand stitching, the stripes. I did my best to stay true to the pic but also not drive myself insane. Especially after the wrestling match I had with creating the pattern in the first place. Hopefully I'll be finishing this up either tonight or tomorrow!
No, I'm not selling these. It is a one-off for someone's Halloween costume.
No, I'm not releasing the pattern either, sorry.
And, I'm also working on a pair of pirate-y Bloomers! How awesome is this fabric and lace?
Next up: Matrix style coat for my hubby in black canvas & a dress for me in black cotton printed with red stars. Can't wait!

Bloomers!
I just finished these lovely custom Cotton Velvet Bloomers for the wickedly wonderful MrsEvils. I don't have enough yardage left to remake these so she is definitely one lucky lady that just so happens to have a Capelet to match.
And, I finally got around to listing these two below. Huzzah!
My usual design (left) and a pair in the style of the Civil War era (right). The fabric and stitching are not to period on the Civil War styled ones though or it would have taken forever and a day to make them. Never you mind that it took that long to list them. Also they are completely, um, vented *teehee*. See the listing for a full description if you don't know what that means.
These two pairs of Bloomers are some of the last of my 1" black & white striped fabric so you won't be seeing others like these unless I get lucky and hunt some more down at a reasonable price! If you are interested in either of these please read the measurements given in the listings carefully. They are final sale, no returns, being undergarments and all.
Off to de-velvet-fluff my workroom! ;)
