Keep Me Waiting

I was on fire with the sewing machine a couple of nights ago.



I made a pair of Lolita wristcuffs, two jewellery pouches, two skirts, which can be seen here and made progess with a Gosu Rori Dress. I'm currently selling them though to fund for my trip to Germany.

Wristcuffs - £5
Pouches - £2.50 each


Heart Apron

I made this a couple of months ago, but I never showed anyone. I want to make some to sell, but I don't think I have enough time :(



Socks

I bought some very cute ankle socks too, perfect for my skirts and the summer!


How do you past your time/earn money?

I pass my time reading and Googling, but I occasionally knit and sew too. I make money by tutoring a boy in French, washing cars, and saving my recyclables for cash. :3

I sew, but I don't feel like selling anyting because I don't think I'm good enough. I do some tutoring though, and I taught drawing.
