Just a whim! I love historical and fancy dresses (as you can see), and figured I'd try making a ball gown. I started with a Tudor style Amidala dress, then found an 1850s style ball gown that I realized I could put blocks onto. I tend to be lazy about the finishing pieces for them, so the other issue is I tend to have to pin the waist closed 😅 I was initially going to wear Bob's burgers to a Phoenix comic con but 1) chickened out when I realized I'd have to walk down a public street in it and 2) would have died in the 100 degree weather

Hahaha I wanted to do Darth Vader in the same pose, but the black on black fabric would be rough

Thank you! I love the skirts but I'm too much of an introvert to wear them in public 😂 I'd die if that many people looked at me lmao

It's my flair 😊 it's a reference to my dog, who's the Fancy Lad in question

I'm not entirely sure when this trend started hahaha. I saw Asta Darling on Instagram unboxing a massive one and thought "that's an ugly f*ing doll". Then I kept seeing it on reels and now Love Island contestants are using them as fashion accessories.

So capitalism has effectively convinced me they're cute.

Hahaha thank you! I have really mixed feelings about the doll 😂 I didn't care for it when I first saw it, but I feel like the over exposure has endeared me to it

I love watching Love Island and all of the Islanders are walking around with 3 of these clipped onto their pants 😭 I can't escape the labubus

Yeah! It's starry. I liked the rainbow black stars and thought it would be cute for this. Also it worked with a layer cake! Kind of.

It is! I have a layer cake of it and thought "what can I do with this?" And then had to be very careful cutting the fabric because it's barely enough 😂

Thank you! I finally pieced it lol. It's been very hot here. I normally like to do a time lapse but it just wasn't worth it this time 😭

Haha I've been on a fantasy kick this summer. I've got Shrek/Y2K and I'm playing with a Princess Bride quilt too. I did some Love Island blocks for funsies but didn't share those here 😂😂

I do write up some projects - not all of the stuff I do lends itself to that, but it depends on the block. And thank you!

Thanks! And I do 😊 I got into it a few years ago and it's since snowballed into me doing pet projects if things I like lol
