Seamstress, rivethead, gardener, railroad enthusiast and avid reader of Golden Age detective and mystery fiction.
This is supposed to be a style journal - my style, mainly, my sewing and pattern drafting projects, fabric and haberdashery shopping, thrifting finds, music, films, idols and anything else that seems relevant. I suspect that it might be prosy, long-winded, geeky and dull to read, but I enjoy writing it, which is the main point, and I enjoy reading other people's navel-gazing style blogs. Any private stuff that filters through does so mostly by accident, and I try to keep it to a minimum.
All posts are public, but feel free to friend me if you like. If you drop a line and introduce yourself too I'll be all the happier.
