Seattle: At the Waterfront

I have this “thing” for open water.  I am simultaneously terrified and obsessed with it.  I am completely content to watch water for hours on end, it is somehow calming to me.

Mmmm, boats.  Love!  Riding the ferry during my first trip to Seattle is still one of my favorite memories.  (Note:  I actually made that shirt.  It’s true.  I bought a $2.00 men’s dress shirt at a thrift store, washed it a half-dozen times, and then cut it up and re-fashioned it into a cool feminine blouse for me.  It’s pretty much my new hobby.  Yes, a tutorial will be coming, later.)

He’s such a good sport.

Pike Place Market, both touristy and loved by locals, and one of my all-time favorite attractions nation wide.  I took about a hundred photos of various fruits, veggies, bread and cooking utensils.  My plan is to frame them and hang them in my bare-walled kitchen.  They are being edited at the moment–and who really wants to see a two dozens pictures of food?–but I am really excited about this!

This trip to Seattle was lovely while it lasted.  The mix of sunny and gorgeous and cloudy and cool was fantastic and somehow Handsome & I packed a ton of things in.  There have been a lot of changes in the week since we got home, but I did want to at least document the trip before I get into all those changes.

I’m glad you had a great trip! I can’t wait for the tutorial since I recently learned how to sew. :)

Cute blouse! What creative energy you’ve been having lately! Are you on Etsy selling some of your ideas? I am behind Heidikins all the way. I love reading about your creative ideas! I always have lots of ideas about sewing things. But since my skills are poor, and I have no time, that will have to wait until later in life!
