saw this cute top at Forever21 and decided I'd try to make it. 

Found some "scrap" material and soon found it was a little trickier to put together than I expected.  


but my model is so cute, she makes anything look good 😀

Would you believe that I can't find any of the bathing suits I made for this little girl last year. It's amazing how clothes just mysterious disappear!

Homemade snuggies

My cute models. 

I wish I didn't have to model these but there was no one else at home. :-( 


I have a customer/neighbor who asked me to make Hawaiian print snuggies for each one of her kids and spouses for christmas. She customized each print and color to match each of their personalities. It was a big project but I got it done just in time to ship it to the mainland for christmas. Once I was done, my neighbor asked me to make a blanket for her using all the scraps from the snuggies. I love how her blanket turned out, and what a get keepsake item to have forever.  


20 of 20: DONE!!!!



I'll add more of this little cutie later..

Kahuku Homecoming Princesses


Kahuku Homecoming 2015

Aren't these girls just beautiful?




For all Occasions

I love in Polynesian culture that white is the sign of new life and is worn at all special occasions, from baby blessings, to baptisms, to weddings, and to funerals. For this occasion I was asked to sew 3 puletasi's for a funeral. The girls were not available for any fittings, so it's a good thing their measures were not far off from mine so I got to act as the live model. Sorry. haha.
This beautiful little girl turned 8 and was getting baptized. She requested a puletasi with a peplum top.

When you live on an island, you have more bathing suits than shoes.
