Tina Fey for Vanity Fair

I picked up the January issue of Vanity Fair a few weeks ago. I adore Tina Fey, her intelligence and wit are refreshing.

This Little Pouch

I just finished up the quarter and one of the assignments was to create something based on a historic textile technique. I chose to research on Korean embroidery since I have always been attracted to the vibrant colors. Upon my research I learned that Korean as well as Vietnamese and Japanese embroidery was greatly influenced by Chinese embroidery. The one distinctive aspect of Korean embroidery I discovered was the "folk embroidery." Basically, it was everyday objects adorned with embroidery by common people, like pillows, handkerchiefs, pouches and socks.

This is what I made:

I embroidered the fabric with flowers first, sewed a circle, then cut it out.

Inside out...the back of the embroidery.

Right side out.

With the drawstring, and pulled to close.

Sexiest Night on Television

You know exactly what I'm talking about...The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show! I looooved it. The costumes were extremely creative and the different scenes were very distinctive. Along with the lovely ladies...Usher was also on stage (I'm in love with him again). "We ain't having sex, we're making moments..."

Hopefully one day I'll be able to work with people like amazing Charlotte Stockdale. I am extremely impressed and am inspired by her and Todd Thomas' creations. So now for the eye candy...
