so this blog has been 'undeleted'

after a long debate (with my myself), and being haunted over and over about things i really wanna do, i'm getting back to sewing. and i think i'm mighty proud to say that i've gone pretty far from the last post (April). i reconciled with Gherma, my sewing machine. i have learned so much about her and what we can do together for the past two months. but this time, i'm sewing for the small ones. not kids, though. but dolls. i loved dolls. i had different kinds when i was a kid, and i'd make them wardrobe of their own. sewing for the little ones ain't easy though. the tiny details, the supposedly skilled hands to control all your moves (or reduce your moves 1/6) is testing my patience, as well as keeping the passion alive. you see, your imagination, or creativity, if it's not materialized, will feel like a puss in you. throbbing, shouting, burning from inside, makes you weak. but if you let it out, make something out of that idea, you feel good, especially if you see what you intend to see. but, see, there goes the problem. if you don't have the skills to materialize all that, there's never gonna be a cure for this pain inside. that's what stopped me then. because i didn't get to know Gherma enough. i just assumed i just can't sew, or my sewing machine is one basic model for housewives to mend their torn aprons with. but no, she is actually perfect for me. and  i know we can do beautiful things together. yup! i will be posting pictures of my creations with my muses (got me a couple Momoko dolls last month, and the Barbie i bought last year has finally come out of the dusty closet) in the near future. i hope to make new outfits for them each month. im that slow still so be patient :) till next time!
