Tutorial on the way betches!

SO the trouble with juggleing two types of crafts is .. well.. juggleing two types of crafts. I havent had any time really to put together any tops but it is my priority this month to get some together. Ive been making soap like a mad woman at night in order to fill orders from repeat customers that bought soap at craftacular. I also want to have anough loaves of cured soap for some summer events I plan on doing and everyone in the world knows that a good aged Castile soap is the BEST possible soap eva, right? In the words of the greatest rapper of all time, Well if you dont know now you know! I have one top halfway done sitting on a hanger right now and its calling me.. in a big way. So as soon as I can get this honey soap and another castile soap going, the top will be made.

Also in the works is my very fist craft tutorial. I am going to do a newbies introduction to cold processed soap making using a 3# can of veggie shortening. I just feel for a first timer this process helps you understand the actual process and what the appearence of trace is. Plus its an oil that makes a decent bar of soap and is accessable. I know many soapmakers have their opinions about the best way to learn, the best recipe, the best process, the best safety precautions and know what? Its my friggin BLOG! And this is the way I learned and this is the way I will teach. If you dont like it go get your own blog.

Last weekend, while hanging with Veronica in Astoria, I went to visit this fabric shop RIGHT by one of our favorite frappe/dessert/crepe spots. I cant even beging to tell you guys the amount of stuff I could have come home with that day. PLUS I had the car parked almost right across the street! Pretty dangerous. Anyway, I walked away with some awesome stretch houndstooth fabric and some red jersey knit and few other goodies that will get sewin into some fierce tops and a dress in the next few weeks so look out.
