		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;she has another website.Sorry for my recent disappearance from the world of costume. I volunteered to take on my theater&#8217;s website a while back, and genius over here decided it needed a massive redesign because it was annoying to update.  (Launch DreamWeaver and &#8230; wait for it&#8230; wait .. wait&#8230; Poop, I need another coffee.)

		<description><![CDATA[I spent the day doing photography for demos on patterning and making some basic stuff (smocks, skirts, etc). I&#8217;m working at sizes to fit Tyler Wentworth dolls, and I just had some sort of completely wrong notion that sewing a smock for a 16&#8243; doll would be easier and/or faster than sewing for a human&#8230; [...]]]></description>

I don&#8217;t know why that was a surprise, since I moved everything last August. I&#8217;ve added little redirect-y pagey-poos for the worst offenders. I guess I should have done that last August&#8230; I wasn&#8217;t thinking really [...]]]></description>
