That’s right I got featured! Right before I went to SDCC I was featured, I almost couldn’t believe it and really it did a lot to boost my confidence.

Then I went to Con and it only got better. I had two tables in the Artist Auction, held upstairs, and I was put into a corner, by the windows. Dan, the MAN, did set up and visual presentation for me and made it GORGEOUS! Nearly half of my product sold and yes I am open for commissions so don’t hesitate to ask. Petticoats, pantaloons, Mini tophats, what ever your heart desires.

So thank you to all who have helped and supported me, I could not have done it without you.

I love you youtube http://theartofdawn.com/sanguinethreads/2010/06/28/i-love-you-youtube/ http://theartofdawn.com/sanguinethreads/2010/06/28/i-love-you-youtube/#comments Tue, 29 Jun 2010 02:15:27 +0000 Robin http://theartofdawn.com/sanguinethreads/?p=390 Rolled hem Serger

Found this wonderful thing while trolling youtube for sewing videos, what was I having trouble with? Rolled hems! The persons in charge of making the serger manual did not really think wording through, they are somewhat incomplete and only make sense if you are experienced at doing what they are trying to teach you…. not helpful. So here you go, I know I’ll be using this very shortly.

Quick update. http://theartofdawn.com/sanguinethreads/2010/06/16/quick-update/ http://theartofdawn.com/sanguinethreads/2010/06/16/quick-update/#comments Wed, 16 Jun 2010 22:41:20 +0000 Robin http://theartofdawn.com/sanguinethreads/2010/06/16/quick-update/ Lots has been going on but not enough time to discuss it all. I was excepted to Long Beach Comic Convention were I will be hosting a table with Cassandra aka Misstress Evil. I will have clothing of all variety, take commissions, and hats(!) yes hats of the mini voriety, both premade and customizable on the spot!!!
Finishing out finals and hopefully getting my new camera soon. My old one is lost to the depths so for my birthday my parents ordered me a new one and hopefully it will be here soon.
Lots of sewing going on, tons and tons but so far I am happy with what I am producing, these pieces are actually for my final so you know I want them to shine, “Go Big or Go Home!”

Thanks for all the support.

Who, what, where? http://theartofdawn.com/sanguinethreads/2010/06/07/who-what-where/ http://theartofdawn.com/sanguinethreads/2010/06/07/who-what-where/#comments Tue, 08 Jun 2010 02:46:36 +0000 Dawn Wolf http://theartofdawn.com/sanguinethreads/?p=332 Allo! So yes I am rather busy but  I am still taking comissions, especally for hats! I have school wrapping up shortly for summer break. new quarter starting, and let’s not forget  San Diego Comic Con!

Hopefully soon I will also know if I have a table for Comic Con of Long Beach in October. Here’s to hoping because this would be where I would impliment my friends briliant idea of Costomizable Hats! Near instant on the spot mini hats that I would personalize for you and you come back a short time later  to pick it up.

If you have ideas for what we should call this let me know! I like hearing from the fans

Technical Difficulty http://theartofdawn.com/sanguinethreads/2010/05/20/technical-difficulty/ http://theartofdawn.com/sanguinethreads/2010/05/20/technical-difficulty/#comments Thu, 20 May 2010 22:04:09 +0000 Dawn Wolf http://theartofdawn.com/sanguinethreads/?p=55 Last week the website went down and the Web Ninja Dawn has been working to get it up and running again.

The bad thing is that many of you that had subscribed to the site to get updates are no longer subscribed to the website. We also lost all your wonderful comments that you had left before. The good news is that the website has a spiffy new look!

Need a pattern, Sounds demented http://theartofdawn.com/sanguinethreads/2010/05/18/need-a-pattern-sounds-demented/ http://theartofdawn.com/sanguinethreads/2010/05/18/need-a-pattern-sounds-demented/#comments Tue, 18 May 2010 20:00:34 +0000 Robin http://theartofdawn.com/sanguinethreads/?p=42 Need a German Officers uniform Circa WWII 1940′s. A symbol only has the power you give to it and I don’t plan on giving it power. I like the form and the silhouette and I plan to make some protest clothing from the patterns. This will be what I make it not what has been made of it, I am taking back the power from all it’s negative influence, history, and ignorance.

So if anyone knows where to get one that would be great.

Balance http://theartofdawn.com/sanguinethreads/2010/05/05/balance/ http://theartofdawn.com/sanguinethreads/2010/05/05/balance/#comments Wed, 05 May 2010 21:55:40 +0000 Robin http://theartofdawn.com/sanguinethreads/?p=51 Design class. This was a mirror project make or take a picture cut it in half a create a mirror image by cutting out the white and flipping it to the black, much like looking at a picture and negative at the some time.

I created my own picture representative of myself. We were allowed one small liberty, a difference between the two halves, see if you can spot mine.
