Next On My 'To Craft' List

You are a huge liar if you say this isn't one of the coolest nerdy things you've ever seen. I want one!
Craftster is a favorite site of mine, look around a bit, they've got some awesome stuff made by ever awesome-er crafters! See if you can find me...

I am like two stiches from finishing my reconstructed polka-dot dress and cannot wait to wear it (although its probably too fancy for me to wear anywhere...but whatever, I'll find something) and am psyched because it was one of my short-term items on my bucket list, plus it involves a ton of stuff I've never done before with sewing and so far its coming along much better than expected.

Here's a 'before' shot of the dress as a teaser :)

Pretty ugly, right? Promise I made it at least a little cuter. Actually, the dress is my mom's from when she was my age, her favorite dress in fact. It's pretty 80s (don't tell her I said that....) and I'm no where near her size, so I Tim-Gunned it a bit and am making it work. Trust me, the second I finish pictures will be all over this blog.
