 hi

i haven't a clue what i'm doing here, but if you're on this page and you're not my mam, then you haven't a clue either, so from one lost person to another, hello. chances are, i've either become so skilled and famous, like a regular bernadette banner, that people have decided to look back to my first blog post to see if i have always refused to use proper punctuation and capital letters - or - you've stalked me by name on google and now you're here. either way, i'm sure you'll be thoroughly disappointed in me. 

i, like most historical costumers doing 'research', have spent so many hours of my life on blogs, admiring the wonderful craftsmanship and dedication. like me, i'm sure you look at the marvellous creations of others, think to yourself, "wow how beautiful, i'm now extremely jealous", and then, out of pure spite, you make the garment in question to prove to yourself you can do it. and it's always either alright (i.e. not good enough) or a complete disaster. 

so i figured, why not give it a shot? it would give me good reason to remember to take progress photos. i can't pretend i'm going to post consistently or uh.. make decent posts? but i can promise i will make plenty of mistakes for you to learn from if you even really exist - so that's nice i guess. honestly, this is just for me and my shell of a brain - i'll learn lessons quicker if i announce to the world that i make bad decisions. anyway, none of this is intended to be formal or in any way serious. i'm honestly only doing this in blog form because most people would consider it to be sort of a dying format. i have actual knowledge and skills in running an instagram account, but then i'm just open to way too many people accessing my mistakes and easily telling me off. also, i have spellchecker on here, and as someone who doesn't read unless absolutely necessary, that's reason enough.

maybe i'll put some art stuff here too though..

the grammarly bot has let me know i sound extremely unconfident. 1 out of 5 handshake emojis. good.
