steampunk
Freaking awesome:

I'd say that I wish I had talent like that, but if I really wanted to, I could probably do some of those myself, given enough patience and time. However, I lack the time, dedication and motivation, in combination. Hmmm... Maybe I will do some project time this evening instead of book/comic reading. I've been wishing for some more interesting things in my wardrobe (that fit); maybe I can get a skirt made yet tonight.
Edit: Skirt not finished, but a good way through. Planning and cutting are complete and the sewing started. I haven't quite narrowed down how I'm going to do the fastening, but I'm thinking about a privacy panel for the "overlap" bit and ribbon for fastening. I have a little bit of sewing to do before I need to finalize that bit, anyhow, since I've decided to pleat the skirt. I'm really looking forward to having a good heavyweight long skirt again. And it'll be stripy with fun trimmed corduroy pockets! *excited*
