If you're not into horror films, feel free to skip this post. These are the films I watched for Halloween, starting in August. Some were good, some were very bad. For the ones that weren't amazing I am including a "watch instead" option. Spoilers have been written in white text, highlight the text to read it. Haunt (2019) 5 stars I rewatched Haunt , which I think is the best haunted attraction horror films. The other film that comes near in quality is Hellfest , which is also really scary, but this one has great cohesian with the cast of villains, and the main character's back story is a good addition which makes us more able to sympathise with her.  If you know any other good Halloween haunt films, let me know.  Scarecrow Slayer (2003) 0.5 stars This was one of the worst films I have ever seen. The script was terrible and there was some really bad computer graphics to top it off. The main girl trying to make out with her awful frat boy ex not long after her nic...

The first one was one of my favourite films as a child, but I haven't seen the other two.

Original post here I finished my M7977 blouse at the beginning of the year and still hadn't worn it. There were a couple of things I didn't like.  The first was that it was a purposefully oversized pattern and I maybe went a size too large. The fabric I had used was very stiff and didn't like to gather in nicely at the waist when tucked into a skirt. I don't think this would have been fixed by gathering the waist as in the original instructions, as the thick material just didn't like to fold.  The second thing was it just felt too plain (to me anyway). I wanted it to have some kind of ruffle as on the original pattern. I was thinking of a smaller ruffle or some gathered lace, but I didn't have any black lace ribbon in the house so that would have required a long trip to the nearest sewing supply store or ordering online and hoping it worked.  So in the end I decided to just cut out the original ruffle from the pattern in the same lace fabric as the yoke and see ...

My lovely friends Yasmin, Caite and I had a hat decorating day last Wednesday. We took old hats and made them fabulous with fake flowers, leaves and other things from our craft stashes. My hats: Before After This was a secondhand hat. I wanted to do a hat with lace around it and Yasmin had some lovely pre-gathered lace. I just did a simple look for this one. The idea was to look like I belonged in a Studio Ghibli film. Before After Another secondhand hat. The purple roses were foam ones I bought ages ago. I added lots of pieces from Caite and Yasmin's fake flower collections to fill in the gaps and add interest. I had the butterfly for a long time and it is happy to get used.  I like my hats to have the decoration slightly offset to the side so this is what I did with both my hats.  I feel like the hat looks like something you would pay for if you saw it in a store and am very happy as this is my first time decorating hats.
