cha cha cha





Happy {belated.} birthday to my bff Arizona!She is now a whole one hundred years old, and I think that is pretty special stuff.

The good ol' Grand Canyon state has & always will have a huge, happy place in my heart. I'm a warm-blooded, cactus-loving, true Arizonan girl.



I mean let's get real here.

Who doesn't love this?

My Mom Sews Better Than Your Mom



Welp. It is officially February. Love the month of love!

We love Homecoming.

Look at baby us! <3




You can probably tell this this guy ^^ makes
^^that girl pretty happy.

____________________

There's this lady we call Clodhopper & she is quite the seamstress.
She sews everything for everyone & is a saint about it.
She adds sleeves. Makes it longer. Fits it to short torsos.
Puts together three patterns.

And it comes out like this:


Winter Formal. This guy ^^ was a super fun date!
We had a blast rockin' out.

And as you can see, Clodhopper strikes again.
Prettiest dress she has ever made & I get to wear it. BONUS!

And the Christmas dress!
I love the vintage fabric & three-quarter sleeves.


{February Formal dress coming soon! <3}

She always cuts it to order & works her heart out
to make it just the way you like.
And she sews it with love. & you can feel it!

Clodhopper is my mom & she is perfect.
She has been an amazing amazing help to me this year.
{my whole life, ya know.}
Sewing beautiful dresses is only a small part of what she does.
For reals, that woman. I want to be just like her when I am all grown up.
