Designing my own clothes

My friend's mum, Jayne, visited us tonight. She's really nice and pretty. She's a great teacher and knows how to do sewing and designing. My mum asked her if she would help me to learn to sew because I love designing clothes and creating weird, out-of-the-blue clothes.

Jayne promised to help me in the holidays. She told me to draw a design, then think about all the shapes that would make up that design and draw them. Then from my designs she will help me to draft a pattern and sew my dress together. I feel happy and excited that she will do this and have spent the last hour drawing designs. I now have one design I really like and I'm looking forward to making it. Wow, can't wait to wear that dress! It's so creative and funky!

That's me for now.

Eliza is so cool!

My friend, Eliza, came over for a visit tonight. Her mum and mine are good friends. Her mum brought over some Bollywood costumes and let us try them on. They were so cool. Eliza got to hear some of my favourite tracks like "Stronger" by Kanye West; "No Air" by Chris Brown and Jordan Sparks; and "Glamorous" by Fergie.

Eliza has this really neat new Mac laptop. It's amazing. It's got a built in web cam and you can do all kinds of weird things, like splitting the image in two. I've asked her to put some video clips up on the site. Her brother does this really funky dance...I love it.

Well, time for bed. Hope you come back for a visit soon. Blogging is great!

Girls With A Passion 4 Fashion launches!

My sister Elise and I (Sarah) have created our very first social network on ning.com. It's called Girls with a Passion for Fashion and is open to girls up to the age of 18 years.

The purpose of our social network and this blog is to give girls the opportunity to become fashion gurus.

Elise and I did a little tour of duty around the local shops. Here's a few quick pics.

We were very excited to start this social network and we hope that a lot of girls will come online and hang out with us and discuss fashion.
