That would have been the cool thing to say when I was in college and much like Rob and Corinne who host this great web channel, ThreadBanger.com. You must go check it out. They create all kinds of new clothing from old clothes, visit all kinds of artists of hand made clothing and are really entertaining! They make me remember when I was in my hippie years and made a lot of peasant shirts, purses and halter tops and I embroidered all over them ...and my jeans of course. I also covered my boyfriends jeans with patches and embroidery. His friends were so jealous and asked me to sew theirs too , but no way did I have time for others guys clothing decor, my every moment was spent worshiping" my Mark". We wore some crazy stuff --Granny Dresses were"IN' Anybody remember those?It was also the era when we didn't wear a certain item for the first time --Bras! My dad had a fit when he became aware of this - one day when I modeled a new halter top I had made --too funny .............. He also referred to people who lived together without being married as "shacking up" ...........a few years later I was doing that too .....poor dad. I guess he must have really enjoyed it a few weeks ago when I totally freaked out over my daughters lip ring !!! She did it herself with a safety pin! I'm a nurse but I secretly hoped it would get infected so she would have to take it out -- no such luck, it healed just fine. However I had it air brushed out of her senior picture,Ha!
