These past few months I've had so much fun working for ilovetocreate's Tie Die Your Summer campaign .  Up and down the coast of California I went where I was called, an apron on and squirt dyes in hand.  Working the tie dye booth for iltc, I calculated that I assisted the dying of 2000 tie dye shirts (certificate please).  And since I had such unfettered access to dye, I kept going!  I dyed everything-clothes, duvets, pillows, and even threw my best friend a baby shower where everyone dyed a onsies for her little one.  This post is all the projects that didn't get posted over the summer.  They kinda just fell off my plate of things to do but here they are, a little dyeing inspiration for all my crafty friends out there.  Get a kit and go for it! A Cynthia Vincent ruffled top. Tied and dyed Yay!  I'm going to wear it like this for a bit, then it might become a deep blue/black next. A BCBG hippie top My good friend and...

This past weekend, we spent an incredible day at Underwood Family Farm , eating corn on the cob, drinking fresh-squeezed lemonade, and getting lost in a corn maze.  We rode an oil barrel cow train and even won a free pumpkin.  At the end of the day we went home with about 50 pumpkins, sunburnt noses, and some great family photos.  After wearing these old overalls and seeing them on scarecrow after scarecrow I thought it was time for a makeover. After all, there's gotta be a way to wear overalls without scaring the birds away, right... My new best friend. The heaviest pumpkin I've ever lifted. Lunch. Who likes corn? My big baby. Our haul. And after the makeover.  Ta-dah! The directions will appear in the June edition of Sew It All Magazine .
