the FOXXY Collection
Since I was a teen I loved to fool around with designing my own clothes. I always thought it would be fun to do more. So, now that I'm retired, I checked out a great book on fashion illustration, deciding to try my hand at it. Here are some of my designs inspired by a incredibly cool DJ from the UK, Dee van de Staat, aka FOXXY. These designs are dedicated to every woman, any age, any size, just always foxxy!
See, I'm not so good at faces. This poor creature is going to need a reworking.
Inspired by DJ Foxxy with "Breakfast with Foxxy" formerly on Bounceradio.net.
Gaby just had a strawberry shampoo and now she is looking for a way to escape. She did smile for her picture, though.

Hi Everybody
I've loved to knit since my Aunty taught me the knit stich when I was twelve or so. She didn't know how to purl. Every time my Mom and I went to a discount department store I could buy my little stash of yarn. Now that I think back I was pretty good at designing and knitting some cool stuff.
Fast forward through life. I'm now retired living in Needles, CA, USA. I know, the nearest populated area to HADES! And I'm rekindling my love of knitting and all things fiber. I spin and weave too. My new discount yarn stash is coming along nicely and I have all of you bloggers to thank. If you felt a warm presence at your blog lately, it was me enjoying all the cool stuff you've done.
