I made this as a gift for my mom... It was a mother's day where I had a husband that was pretty badly injured, and three out of four of my children were sick... The one that was well was put of town with a friend... So I needed a soothing balm. What better balm for the soul than to make something beautiful for your mother?
I was watching LA Ink one day while working, and saw a beautiful bikini top that I decided to try and duplicate. Y'all know me... Easily inspired. $25 and up depending on size and color. This particular one is in stock! Size Large.
So, today is a proud day for me... I am sitting on a couch in a photo studio, pulling out sewing notions for a piece I made, ready to pin and clip if needed. Sisterlocks 2013 International calendar is presented by Sah'Rah Stylz, and July features something made by yours truly.
I cried in the shower, on my way here... I don't know if it was because I was humbled and grateful, or tired as all heck. Maybe both. A special thanks to Kisha and Shamika for calling on me to create and design something pretty. :) I saw it... I liked it... I made it... I wore it. :) $60 and up depending on size. In fact, I'm wearing it today!
