Upgrading my Costume Closet

 Big news. I've been rather quiet the past few weeks not only because of the holidays but also because most of my projects are stalled...save for knitting and crochet.  All this because...I'm buying my first home! 🏡 It's an incredibly confusing and stressful process. (I'm doing it on my own too...so spooky!)  The effects of the stress are incredible...worse than when I was unemployed. BUT this place will finally give me my own dedicated craft room/guest room.  I am very excited even though the new expenses are going to just completely cut my costume budget for the year. Incredibly...I don't have plans for Halloween or the Dance Showcase so mostly just sewing clothes. Weirdly.  But I do have backburner plans for more kimono, shoe making, and random props. I'm actively working on my crochet haori based on Giyu Tomioka.  Absolutely crazy pattern Until I move in April. This blog will be in hibernation.
