Aside from my photos, I made a couple of big fleece blankets. On bringing those home Saturday afternoon, Jeremy was astonished. "You made those today?!" Apparently he thought that the pattern on the first one I showed him was something I had stitched or woven or some such. He has not seen me with my bags of remnants. Clearly. :)

(For the entire outfit: altered vest/dress over an old belly dancing top (which you can't even see), with my black skirt (so worn it looks blue now), and a gorgeous velvet scarf with burnout panels at the ends draped over my military belt. And sandals, because it was bloody hot last night. This is one of my many steampunk gypsy variations.)
The whole reason I worked on the vest, of course, was for the Abney Park show on Sunday night. Jeremy wasn't well enough to attend, so instead I dragged our friend Katie along with me. She was reluctant to tag along until I told her she could dress up out of my steampunk collection. She ended up going with a tan button-up shirt and a long rust colored vest/dress with a grommetted belt, over her jeans. She also borrowed one of my flight helmets, and Jeremy's goggles. Super adorable. :) (And she had a blast. :) )
Oddly, I didn't see even a moment of the show, as I volunteered at the merch table, as per my usual. I get paid with hugs and thanks from the band, and it means I didn't have to brave the heat and crowd in the venue. I had a chair! :)

Super Congrats on your new studio space!! Sounds like it has proven to already be a success! I've been thinking of doing the same thing lately - time for more art room!
