Full Circle 
Hiddy Ho Pussycats!
I am in love w this skirt and want to make some for
the studio in the spring.....which is very soon.


The tee shirt is great too..but the skirt is smashing!!!!

On a fancier note, I really like these 50's
party dresses w these great full skirts and fabulous lace overlays.

This black one is gorgeous!!!!



Sigh....they are so pretty and feminine.


I am going to have to make one or 2 just for fun!


I can hear the "swishing" of taffeta and the netting in this dress.


This one is my favourite today.....
Nothing exciting today Pussycats...
just me thinking out loud.

Stay warm and be in touch!!!
Luv Weezi xoxoxooxx





Awesome Lunch Bags!

Awesome Lunch Bags!

I really like to read this gal's blog everyday.
http://www.ohfransson.com/oh_fransson/2008/02/vintage-pillowc.html
Oh Frasson!s is the name of her blog.

With her permission I wanted to pass along thing this post she did.


She was involved in a Vintage Pillow case Challenge.
She made these amazing bright and cheery pillow case lunch boxes!
Check it out....


"Ta da! This is what I made for Handmade Parade's "Vintage Pillowcase Challenge" contest. I just love the way they look. It reminds me of candy! Entrants in the contest are challenged to create something from a single vintage pillowcase and NO additional fabric. It's okay to use notions, interfacing, etc., but no extra fabric. This was a real challenge for me, since I rarely make something using all one fabric -- especially all one print."

They are so cute!
What a
nice way to take your lunch to work.
I am totally smitten with the little placemat she made.


Great how it folds up.


Maybe if we are lucky she will make more and post them on Etsy to sell.

Here is her shoppe on Etsy.....

She used an iron on plastic to cover the pillow cases.....very interesting.




I will have to ask her how it was to work with.
That could be fun for Spring Weezi bags.

Well Pussycats...I thought these spring like lunch bags
might "warm" up your afternoon.
Read up on her blog for more info on how she made them.

Stay Warm and be in touch!!!!!

These are tile coasters w retro prints on the front.

They come in sets of 4.


They all have red or green or pink felt on the back to protect your table.

No matter what anyone says...


I love this vintage Russian Fashion!!!!

Who wouldn't love a few saucy "bad" girls on their table???


OR some vintage Vogue????


Great for Valentine's Day!
I will do more on a regular basis b/c they are so fun to do.

I put 8 coats of waterproof topcoat on to make them
very waterproof.
That is the part that takes forever.

Have a great Friday Pussycats!

British Street Style


British Street Style
Hiddy Ho Pussycats!
Ever since I was in Grade 9 and discovered The English Beat, Mary Quant
Rude Boy and Mod culture I have been in love w British street fashion.
This may be a little know fact about me.

I often tried to dress like the two-tone girl in high school...I don't think there
are any pics of this thank God!
Anyhow...I found this page this morning and really like
some of the pics they posted.
HOYFASHION

This first pic is my fav....this really embodies spring to me! :)
I think she looks stunning and this pic totally made my day!!


I LUV these boots!



I really like how her hair compliments her dress
and I adore her white Mary Jane shoes!!!



This is my second fav b/c it is so simple and so feminine.
Her dress and coat together are perfect in a Weezi world.
The only thing that is wrong is that bag....ick.
Too big, too gold.

Have a great day Pussycats!!
Be in Touch!! Luv Weezi xoxoooxx
46 days until spring & Tee Shirt Disasters!
Well today is a mish mash of stuff......
First of all I found these Kitty Wallets on Etsy.



LUV these!!!!-of course.
My birthday is only 4 months away if anyone is wondering!
****
Over the weekend I starting working on a new tee shirt.

This is the horrible sketch of what was in my head.


I CANNOT draw to save my life so I purposely left
this photo blurry and hard to look at.
It is embarrassing for a "designer" but it is a sad fact....
I never could draw and I have to learn to live w it.
Consequently I never sketch..it is all in my wee brain!
Scary thought!

Moving onward .....b/c I tend to "rattle on".

I was all excited!!


I finally got it down to this final fitting which I was really happy with.

I didn't bother w sleeves b/c I knew they would fit fine.

Then I got my pattern a graded and cut out.....


I did do one tee and I HATED it..I picked the worst fabric and it bombed.
Dammit! It was a disaster!
So, I don't have a finished tee to show you....yet.
Give me a couple of days.
They can't all be gems Pussycats!

Have a great Monday!!
Be in touch!! Luv Weezi xoxoxoxo
