Greetings and Salutations......
Wait, no! That's not the first thing I want to say. After all, this is going out onto the interwebs - to be stored in some server somewhere for all of eternity!
I need to put some thoughts into this - what should I say? My first words going out should be pithy, profound and powerful; I should say something meaningful, memorable, momentous - something with apparent alliteration....
Something that will generate TONS of traffic....
Soooo....hi. (insert awkward microphone squawk)
<sigh> - I really think that's really the best I can do at 3:44 in the morning
Welcome to my blog! I'm sure it is just my family reading this. After all, in the ever-increasing din of blogs, is there room for my voice? Well, we are going to find out - you and I together....
All ten of you.
So - since there are only a few of us (and we're all friends anyway) lets make some art, sew some vintagey clothes, look at pictures of cool vintage stuff, and basically just have some fun!
My plans for this blog? To document my creative endeavors (both successful and not so), discuss feminism and what it means as a fiber artist, show you how to make cool stuff, discuss the world of being a professional artist (and how to make money at it), and occasionally post pics of some of my favorite vintage items.
What do I mean by the term vintage? In this context I am referring to just after the turn of the last century (think Titanic era) up to about the 1970s (some day I will accept the 1980s - some day). Specifically I'm interested in the fashions and styles of the mid-20th century (post WWII to mid 1960's), but I do stretch out from there.
I also make Elizabethan clothes. Didn't see that coming, did you?
Do you like to sew? Are you interested in cool vintage eye candy? Want to be an artist, but don't know how? Well, then - it looks like you are in the right place. Pop some popcorn, grab a soda, and let's talk....
