I really hope this bustle is going to have the shape I want it to be...

Welcome to another episode of "let's cosplay an audio-only chara!" because sometimes the brainrot lies dormant for months and suddenly.... (goin to live show needed a new outfit)

Scary Marlowe - the Sophomore Slump album

details and whatnot rambling under cut

basic concept was easy enuff: make another t-shirt. "Shit Garden" needed a break, now its time for this

The font seemed basic enuff to copy out and then I'm sittin here like... how to...draw circles... a wholeass ball? (btw no printer access)

frellin BLESS Terry for pulling out his graphic design skills and making me a fantastic ball stencil! He even did a size readjust after my hasty tests the night before

.......anyway, the black shirt had for over a year. It was supposed to be for a Scorpion Slut logo, but scorpions are impossible to draw/cut-out at this detail (aka my lack of skill lvl)

So! because was terrified would fuck up, did a test run first. T'was most educational, seeing how much seeps out and heat needed frm blowing hot air vs ironing over

Kept peeling off bits, readjusting (negative space be dammed), running back to trace out a failed letter (hey kids, want easiest way to fake a light table? ANY backlight works. window, glow of the monitor...) and try again.... (did "O" so many times, its no longer real letter in my brain)**

**MOST OF THIS WAS HAPPENING IN FRIEND'S BATHROOM

Went OCD as fuck getting everything super blocked-out on the actual shirt once was ready to commit

This shirt wasn't painted, but bleached, and i wanted only the words/logo in and nothing else. Clearest outlines, no stencil far edge outlines, no bleed mess

Yes you can see a pin holding on the "hole" of a letter. When I say wanted crisp outlines, that wasn't a joke

of course - irony be dammed - after this part was done, went back and Very Carefully splattered lil bit with my brush. In a highly controlled way

Also the secondary loose concept is ...well.... the first shirt (Shit Garden) she angrily tore at to be punk and all, but this one.... this one was an old team souvenir... Thus soccer ball on both front and back

For this reason (slightly more 'treasured' if you will), the rips were far less chaotic. The hem is left intact, and the neck a careful trim to show she wasn't blindly goin at it with scissors. Ditto on sleeves

Still freehanding this, but folding stuff in half to at least pretend symmetry, ya know?

there's no "Butthole Ricochet" branding ... snuck in a lil Warlock symbol at sideseam instead

New skirt! It has stars!! ★★☆☆★★ she IS a rock star for her album dammit (and it goes on w/ the stars of the barbwire-and-stars long-sleeved shirt frm before)

Everything else (bracelets, fishnet armwarmers, skelenimal scrunchy, etc...) are frm previous incarnations. Tape-measure continues to live on the hip chain

No jar of horrors daddy magic memories, instead there's a funny lil resin charm Terry made (he also once again helped with safety pins AND contributed a few black and white new ones for the sleeves)

The thigh-highs no longer have purple stripes in them (no purple on this one whatsoever, byeeee Omega Patron poison)

Exact same style have used before with alternating sheer & solid stripes, but fully black! (@sockdreams out there continuing to miraculously have Always what am looking for!)

On pair #3 now, and I must say: these pants are unique, as they have no outer sideseam. So the obvious solution is patch pockets!

But now I'm debating whether I want them on the outside or the inside...

Here's an idea of what it'd look like either way:

(And yeah, ideally, I'd have the pocket flaps either way, too; but I can omit them if they don't work out)

[emobatsy]

Picture 1:

I've bought a beautiful blue velvet for the overdress. The underdress will be made from the leftover blue damask I used for my Ophelia gown. For the big sleeves I've found this off white fabric with silver. It's a bit too flashy for our liking (see left lower picture), so I'm going to tone it down by covering it with two layers of tulle (see left upper picture).

Picture 2:

I've been working on the damask undergown and it's now halfway finished. Most of the time was taken up by hand embroidering the flowers on the upper sleeves and the decorative trims which I forgot to photograph 😄.

Picture 3:

The underdress fits! Like mine I've made it shorter to save on fabric. The hand embroidered and beaded trims for the sleeves are also done. They just need to be pressed before I can sew them on the sleeves.

Picture 4:

And we have sleeves!!! They are still quite large for my daughter, but we've decided on this length keeping in mind that she'll probably grow a lot in the coming year.

The sleeves are made of a silvery white brocade with two layers of tulle over it to tone down the flashy silver pattern. The inside of the sleeves is still quite flashy and the brocade fabric wants to curl outside. So if I have time I may line the sleeves with either an offwhite taffeta or white cotton (depending on the amount I have of either in my stash). This will hopefully decrease the curling, but will at least tone down the fabric. But first I'm going to make the blue velvet overdress.

Picture 5:

I've started working on the overdress. It's just a simple two panel dress with a train in the back. Not visible in the picture, but I've sewn two ties in the sideseams. This dress is intentionally a bit too wide and too long for my daughter (It's more my size than hers) so she can grow into it.

I'm also planning the decoration of the neckline. I have a white/silver trim that matches the sleeve fabric, but it's not easy to curve it along the neckline without lots of pleats. It's looking a bit messy with all the pleats to be honest. I may just only use the small outer silver trims and embroider swirls between those.

Picture 6:

I don't think I've shared the pictures of the finished Arwen Requim dress for my daughter yet. Here it is, beautifully lit by the evening light.

one more thing before i make myself eat and do work. but if you're buying clothes at The Store and you want to check fiber content. it is clearly listed on the white shiny tag often sewn into the sideseam around waist level on shirts and in similarly unobtrusive places on other garments. it will list the percentage of each type of fiber on it. it will not say the weave. your t-shirt will say "100% cotton" or "60% cotton/40% recycled polyester" or something like that. and it won't say it's a jersey knit because virtually ALL the fucking t-shirts are jersey knits. you will not find a t-shirt at the store that is NOT a jersey knit. but you will find them with different fiber contents. clearly listed! on the white tag.

Today I worked on my painting some more!

Here's a picture of my assistant, Miss Pumpernickel. She's a very good helper

Also, I worked on the sideseams for this skirt/gown I've been working on. I've been dragging my feet for about a week on it, because I wanted to hand sew a French seam so that I was kind of pattern matching. In order to get the fullest, longest, skirt I could- I had to flip the weave for the back of the skirt. So the yellow lines meet, but the pattern is reversed in the back.

I had kind of wanted to finish this dress in a month but I shouldn't rush it just to be done.

I also made some hella grilled cheese sandwiches!

Thinking about birbmom again. I want to help them raise their babies.

Of course food is always appreciated, but this cold time, the other great option would be to provide warmth. You can even make a cut along the sideseams of a hoodie, for birdmom to put the wings through, et voila!

"Nightshirts are sometimes made long enough to reach to the feet, and there is one wholesale firm, at least, that makes a speciality of providing a pocket for the feet. This is very easily done: an extra 9 or 10 inches is cut on the bottom of the back, and this is turned up and stitched in to the sideseam, thus providing a receptacle for the feet when in bed." - pg. 11, The Cutter's Practical Guide to Cutting and Making Shirts, Undergarments, Collars, Cuffs, Aprons, and Specialite Clothing for Various Occupations by W.

Resizing a bandshirt for a friend

Making something smaller is always easier than making something bigger. My friend is a die hard fan of the band "Die Ärzte" and always buys shirts at concerts. One time last year she only got one that was too big for her. So, she brought it to me to make it smaller for her.

Shirts are easiest to trace because you can simply fold them in the middle and trace easily. I didn't make a whole different pattern for the back, I'll just cut the neckline piece (on the front) out and add it back in for the back.

Because I know my friend and how much she loves to buy band shirts I made a sturdy pattern I can reuse. Just in case!

I suggested to add puffy sleeves to the reworked shirt and she loved that idea.

I wanted to keep the finished neckline, so I made sure my pattern could fit with that. There's also a motif at the back, so I had to make sure not to cut into that one. After cutting I sewed up the new shoulder and sideseams with a stretch stitch (working with a jersey needle aswell).

For the sleeves I used the originals and sewed elastic to the hems to gather them. When I sewed them into the new arm hole I gathered the excess at the top for additional decorative effect. They're nice and poofy now!

I also reused the old hem by cutting it to size and attaching it. The t-shirt was too long previously and my friend wanted it shortened too, so I couldn't just keep the original hem. Because it makes for a nice finishing I've included it anyways. I stitched down the seam allowance with a decorative wavy stitch. (That's really hard to take pictures of because black on black, but now you know it's there!)

I think the finished shirt is so cute now and my friend can create many outfits with it now! Rock your heart out friend 💓

Evening progress!

I still need to hem it and fell one sideseam, but if I hadn't insisted on handsewing every tiny pleat to the neck band, it could have been a one day project!
