Sewing Adventures: Lolita Skirt!


Hi everyone, it's Lin with exciting news! I finally made my first lolita piece of clothing... simple half elastic skirt! This is my first time ever really doing a piece of clothing in general...I've never really did anything people could wear other than this, so I'm happy.

I wanted to post my own "lolita story", but I think it'll have to wait. I'll probably do an audio for it instead, in case you guys wanna hear it.

Sewing Adventures: Doggy Coat!


Hey everyone! It's Lin here with a new blog post. Sorry it took so long...there's been a lot of things that been going on, including lots of distractions and the like. I did get a LOT of sewing done within the last 2 weeks though. The next two posts will be about the projects I worked on. But this post will be about one of them...a dual sided coat I made for my doggy, Nia!

Cosplay Part 2: Drawing out the costume!




Hello everyone, Lin here with part 2 of the cosplay setup and...okay, so it's not just drawing...to further my use of watercoloring, I decided to also paint it too!

So why did I decide to suddenly want to draw and paint out Lulu? Simple...

Our First Creation!


Hey everyone! Another fashiony, artsy post from Lin, this time with an actual product! Yesterday Hibiki and I went to the store to get an iron and an ironing board to finally start working on some projects...I had heard pressing is absolutely needed when it comes to sewing, so we went and got one. The iron is a Rowenta Effective Comfort Iron with vertical steam, auto shut off sprayer and a knob where you can adjust the temperature depending on the fabric you're working with.

Cosplay Part 1: A New Sewing Machine Get!

Hey everyone, it's Lin with the first fashion post I've ever made on Symphonic Reverie...exciting! Two days ago I got a sewing machine at an extremely reasonable price along with some awesome fabrics. This is my first sewing machine and I am an extreeeeme novice....I've never sewn before. But if you read my section of the 'About' page, I do have experience with crochet and knitting and other yarny crafts.

Janome 1117s. Works perfectly! :> I think it's pretty damn adorable.
