Why Ask Why....

Hello Butterflies,

     I didn't much feel like creating today.  It's more like finishing.  I'm almost done with the one spat for my costume. I learned quiet a bit and did things for the first time such as button holes (YAY ME).  So it made me think... why do I do it?

     I've been asked on more than one occasion why I prefer to make most of my costuming myself.  "Isn't easier to just pay someone to do it or just buy it already made?". Short answer... yes.  It is cheaper.   But you don't get the reaction.  I'll explain later. 

     Another thing is, quiet honestly, quality.  Unless you know the person you are hiring to make the item you want, you run the risk of not getting a high s quality as you would like.  Not to mention, What short cuts are they taking? No I think if I can figure it out, I'd rather make it myself.

     Now, remember when I mentioned the reaction?  There is no better feeling when someone gushes of a piece you're wearing and you can say those magical words, "I made it.".  The look on their face and when they ask you how you did it, it's like a drug.  I love every minute of it. 

So create my little butterflies. Show the world what you are made of.

Love and Peace,

Pixie
