Fun with Strobist gels

I had some free time this weekend to play around with the Strobist gel collection. Meg was the subject of my experimentations. Some very nice effects can be created, especially if you can manage multiple light sources. Light red: Cyan: Pale pink: Quarter Blue:

sewing for DD: bustier dress

My next sewing project is a cute fantasy school uniform for Mirielle. The bustier skirt is fully lined and has LOTS of ruffles, quite happy to have found a solid ruffling technique.It needs another pass to make the bust more heart-shaped and to tidy up the back, but otherwise worked out quite smoothly.
