Sewing, future projects

Hey guys! I'v been really into my designing and sewing projects lately since school has ended. I made this really cute Crop top from The Felted Fox that I've had saved in my bookmarked for like a year! I made 2 of these but I like the rainbow one a lot better than the pale pink and white striped one.

 I wore it out to school a month or so ago and got a lot of compliments on it and I ended up wearing to Boston's Pride Parade where I found JuJuBee walking around downtown <3 total sweetie

I started making more sketches for what I could do with the leftover fabric since I still had another yard or so left over. I ended up with 2 really cute looks but only enough fabric for 2 more pieces. I went with the shorts and I'm thinking about making the triangle top or maybe even a halter top instead. This was my first time making a garment with a hidden zipper like this so I got to learn a little bit and it came out pretty good! I just have to practice about making sure my fabrics have a bit more stretch since it can be hard to get in and out of sometimes even though it fits perfect.

After my interview the other day I went to my favorite fabric store because I wanted some new stuff to play with so I got some really cute blue cotton heart fabric and some light blue chiffon. I'm not totally sure what this will turn into yet but I got a small zipper and some matching thread for when I decide.  I drew another 2 designs based on other clothing I've seen and it's very feminine, cute and little flirty.I will most likely make something very "Sweet Gyaru" himekaji type something like this since I'm not super into pink.

I finished making the skirt yesterday but I might make another in a different patter and with a slightly different order of operations since I had a hard time putting it together. I finally learned how to do elastic better so next is to figure out how to use elastic thread and do some shirring!

Talk to you soon with some more projects!

Mini Boston Gal Meet

Hey gals! One of the New York gyaru girls, Sayuri (aka lisa) came down to visit so I showed her around town a bit. We went to a few little shops and then decided to go for some bubble tea at TeaDo. 

We ended up playing a bunch of games and stuff. We played Connect 4, Uno and JENGA. lol she is really good at connect 4 cause I kept losing xD luckily I'm ruthless at Uno! hehe We ordered baked salmon onigiri and I got black milk tea and she got green milk tea, I believe.

After we left to go and shop a little bit. First we went in this jewelry shop called So Good downtown. lol She loved the zebra print carpet in there. I'm so happy I was able to pick up a few things but i might have to go backk for some more hime and bgal jewelry and hair clips. Sayrui got a couple things from there as well.

Later we walked in and out of T.J.Maxx and she got some makeup at H&M. they had some really cute matte lipstick colors but i decided to pass on it. maybe next time xD. We ended up going inside a little food court mall, getting setted and fixed up. I'm so happy she brought her Egg magazine (the last official one too!)

We took pictures in a photo booth. It's not purikura but it's something!

We hopped on a train and went to central since we have a pretty big H-Mart over there. They have really cute pasties and other food as well as an Asian Supermarket in the back. Sayuri got 3 maracrons and a fruit tart! 

We also took a trip to the Goodwill to see if we could find anything we could "gal"-up. I ended up finding a nice black and white plaid/checkered jacket that I could use for onee, hime or agejo depending on what else I wear with it! I was hyped when I found these white creepers but sadly they were a size too small T^T

After we went home to enjoy all our stuff and I took some more selfies since it was too cold most of the time to take off my jackets and show my outfit.
