behind the scenes @ yomono

my days have been overtaken by cutting boning, crimping grommets, drafting patterns, draping and sewing for the past several weeks. (not to mention the next few weeks going forward will fall victim to the same). and not all without a few casualties:










and before you ask, yes, r2d2 is an integral part of the process. so here's to more of the same! i can't wait until it all comes together for the pin show in february!

feature by dfw style daily!

clicked over to the pin show's facebook page this morning and found a nice little bio blurb from dfw style daily... it's also a good source of excitement i can distill down into pure, uncut motivation to work on my collection. i predict some all-nighters in my immediate future...
