Addicted to Polyvore

My sketchbook for the sketchbook project has to be postmarked by the 15th. Faced with this impending deadline I've begun working diligently...on my Polyvore account.
Polyvore is a website that allows you to put together virtual outfits with photos of outrageously-priced clothing. There are some affordable choices, too...but who wants to make a virtual outfit with things you can have in life?

Some outfits from now and earlier.

Learning to Sew

You may remember the pillows I mentioned I made a few weeks ago. I made those shortly after purchasing a portable sewing machine at (where else, but) Goodwill. After a friend's Grandma showed me where the thread goes, I spent a few hours fiddling with tensions and bobbins and eventually got straight lines down. Of course, figuring out how to sew a straight line though cotton left me self-impressed enough to believe I was ready to move on to clothing, or accessories, or maybe a landscape quilt.

How long could it take? A few hours? I can sew lines! What else do I need??
