Vintage knitting, sewing, and a lifetime of craftiness

Building an outfit with safety pins, castles, and a coral top

August 4, 2015 by Tasha 15 Comments

I am so, so behind on things to blog about this summer. Hell, this year, even! Things I've sewn, places we've been. I don't think I'll ever catch up. So instead of catching up, how about just an outfit from last week? This was just a typical summer outfit that I wore last weekend, and Mel graciously snapped a few photos before we set off for the day. We didn't do anything special—far from it.

Thursday outing

February 4, 2011 by Tasha 11 Comments

Last night we decided to brave the labyrinth of snow walls that now make up our city to go out. Did you know some people here "save" parking spaces once they uncover their car from the snow? Really, it's a pretty hot issue! Fortunately we don't have to worry about it since we don't have a car parked outside. The guy in the car in the right of this photo saw me taking the picture and joked that we should go sit down in the ... Read more »
