<br />
basic strapless body hugging semi circle dress, for tea parties, maybe.<br />
<br />
lined, boned, structured. surprisingly stable and comfortable. not tight at all. after making this one, now I know why <a href="http://lostmemory-handmade.blogspot.ca/2013/05/summer-dress.html">the Monet print dress</a> kept falling down I had to make straps for it.<br />
<br />
will have a tea party. probably invite my busy phd-student-mother friend to shock her with my colorful ethnic impractical dress! wow, she will say, don't you just like black and white.<br />
<br />

no need to brag about my childhood poverty here. but, please remember the reason I sew is because I wanted new cloth, instead of one-outfit-per-year.<br />
<br />
I cherish my childhood memories. when my mom was still my age(and she stays to be the pretties girl in the family). Mom, I love you, even though you never taught me how to sew, and you never sewed for me. <br />

sometimes it is cool to sew up a thing quick as a wink. especially it is for myself. </div>

I hope you will enjoy this little tutorial and make something for the coming summer..I know it is still winter, but you could feel extra rich to make summer things in Winter.<br />
<br />
Of course people dress up in silk dresses in Winter too, only it is not me.<br />
<br />
I wish I could get some chances to dress up and chill down in the winter..Imagine ! after long hours drinking in the pub or a hotel or somewhere---after that fun, I'd like to wait for taxies in silks in the winter rain, I do not care, I'd love to!<br />

Thanks for watching.<br />
<br />
Happy holidays!<br />

(BTW, please let me know if I have any grammar or spelling mistakes in my Second or Third language)<br />

This handbag is made for a friend from her own old jeans.<br />
A lot of cutting, ironing and color matching.<br />
But the result is satisfying.<br />
It looks beautiful. Above all, the old jean's warm feelings are well preserved and the bag is sturdy and very comfortable to carry, touch ,or just look at.<br />

I've been pondering hard about the skills of making this kind of fabric flowers. until one day I found it on the net. of course I was overpowered and excited and was telling everybody about this flower. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
One night, a friend of mine came to my house, a Ph.D student of language culture or some sort. Looking at what I was doing, she said causally, you are making the fabric flowers, what for? let me help you do this, I made a lot of them when I was small...........I was speachlesss------------how come you did not tell me before? I wanted to know how to make them and even post a question online. .. she said, did you ask me? I thought everybody can make it.........oh, </div>

D-is a European girl who studys Computer science. she has a great figure and that's why she likes all her clothes to be tight fit. She sent me a picture along with the woolly fabric she bought. I happened to have the exact zipper to match.<br />
<br />
The skirt fits her perfectly. skin tight. It is always good that a person has her/his own signature style. and even better that you can get things made according to your own taste:)<br />

This dress is made for the only and very honoured bride's maid, the elegant Jan, Doctor Jan.<br />
It is from Vogue's Vantage pattern. Jan chose a heavy woven satin. she wanted to use the wrong side of the fabric which I thought was very unique.<br />
<br />
Some pics from the pattern.<br />

<br />
The first version of the dress.. as the fabric is dense and heavy, it somehow looked too much due to the sheer volume of gatherings around the waist line. we decided that it had to be done twice-- to lose some weight...<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
And then, it became lighter, both, the top and bottom. see the difference?<br />

These two pair of baby shoes are made by my aunt, an exceptional woman with great strength and patience.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>Her stitches are always extremely tiny, and her way of making shoes for children has always been the best, and she never compromise anything regarding her art of craft.<br />
<br />
I have only two pairs. As her eyes are no longer good enough for this kind of job.<br />
They are 12cm long, good for a baby 6-9 month. Made from cotton & wool. Hand crafted with love and devotion in a smoke and pet free family.<br />

First, you have to let me show you the bag that I designed and had it made a few years ago.<br />
It travelled half of the planet and landed with me here in another country.<br />
<br />
At that time I did not have a powerful machine to stitch through the leather, so I took the leather pieces to a shoe repairs booth and paid less than one dollar to get it made--by that kind of hand cranked black metal shoe repair machine.<br />
<br />

Even now, there still are a lot of shoe repair booths in smaller cities, or ,in a big city's back street corners.<br />
<br />
<br />
I love those memories of shoe repairing time when I was small. I used to enjoy very much when I was told to bring a shoe to the repair booth in my home town, which was a mountain village occupied by less than 10 thousand people.<br />
<br />
I liked to watch the cobbler doing his job. It always give me great satisfaction watching him get his job done, say, a falling heal put back, a worn out sole mend anew, dropped stitches sewn back, or two pieces of moon-shaped iron punched to the newly bought shoes' heals.<br />
<br />
It was almost like I did the job...I admired the cobbler's rough, dirty, strong, gnarled fingers immensely.<br />

Probably not only myself is missing the good old times, when a pair of shoes supposed to last for many years.<br />
<br />
I found these pictures of shoe repair booth statues. Now the real cobblers might be too old to stay fit, or maybe the city doesn't allow them to be there any more, or probably they have something else to do, like enjoy taking care of their grandchildren or making big moneys using their skills and brains...<br />
<br />
<br />
My father used to repair our plastic saddles by himself. Once a year, we could have a new pair of bright coloured plastic saddles bought specially for the summer, for us to go to the river to bath. Usually they would not last long, as the quality of plastic at that time was not as good as it now, they were stiff, non flexible. When our saddles broke, we often shed tears and gave a good cry over the accident. Then, my father would mend it for us. before night falling, after dinner, in front of the fading cooking fire. He used a iron hook as the tool, put it into the cooking fire and heat it up until it turned red, then he would put the red iron bar in between the broken plastic pieces.an awful smell rose and swirling around our heads..Don't touch, he would say, it is still hot.......After that, after it cooled down .We could have a scarred pair of plastic shoes for the rest of the summer.<br />

But, it came out fine.
