Okay...ACEN is coming up in like ten days.

OMFG <<---Yes i wrote that.

And i am paniced, my mutter is taking me shoping at Hancock fabrics on MONDAY...even though i have been bothering her for a week.

I really really really need some advice.

I will even act like a Noob, if i don't get any, thats how crazy i am.


Question one:

How in the world do i make a skirt into a jsk? I have seen it done.

Question two:


I can't sew a blouse in time and be pleased with it...where in the world can i find a cheap black lolita blouse.

Question three:
Are we okay with mary wearing a more kodana, her design inspired, becasue tahts all she has time for proably in the end.... sweatdrop

Question four:

Will anyone shoot me now? please... emo

heart Thank you guys, as always i will love you forever~! heart

What skirt do you want to make into a JSK? I would probably add an apron type top. You can email me, if it's easier. My gaia usename @gmail.com

For a blouse, if it's black, youre in a lot more luck than if you wanted white or off-white. Look at Target, and if there's a forever21 store near you, they have some pretty lolita stuff.

For #3 I say yes.

#4 - Hang in there. heart

Question 2: yes, when I was really cracking out outfits I was making them without store bought patter and minimal knowledge of pattern drafting. I was making a dress in about a week. So as long as you put fort the efort yes you can make a blouse.

Question 4: Okay.
BANG

#3: What I did once for a blouse was got a plain black blouse and sewed lace on the collar and down the center part with the botton holes and on the bottoms of the sleeves. my friend loved it so much I had to do the same to her blouse.

I can't even find a black blouse around my town...not even a nice white one...its crazy~!!!

Unfortunatly, i can't make a blouse though, espeically since my schedule is booked thanks to family, doctor, rhymmies [lol], and school...and ugh, i am overly a**l...although i do have a pattern...10 days...i can try.


Thank you for shooting me...Annie the Wind.

Thank you Pearl for the kodana support.

There isn't a forever 21 near you house? What a shame, I get quite a few lolita-ish things there : /

If your set on buying one though, i would suggest looking in the (god i hate having to say this) old lady formal areas. I have seen some very Lolita-ish things before, although they are quite a bit more expensive.

btw, i bet the jumper is cute >w<

Thank you...i know, we don't even have an H&M by me...how i live i don't know.

Weird thing is...i tried looking in the bussiness suit, older woman's sections and it was made expensive... sweatdrop And all the colors were pastals. Sweat.

Do you think the Jumper could be lolified? I will take pictures asap.
