I hope you all won’t mind if I don’t post anything terribly interesting today. I’m very tired after several late nights the past few days (staying up to keep Sailor Husband company while he finished writing and editing a 25 page research paper!), and don’t feel terribly awake or witty today. Rather, I think I’d like to catch up on emails and comments, edit some videos for my YouTube channel, listen to some audio books and podcasts, and spend a good chunk of time sewing. I bought fabric this weekend, and it’s calling my name…
However, I have a little task for you! I have lately been trying to go through my comments and visit all your lovely blogs (and be bowled over at the amazing, talented bunch you are!!!). I’m so awful about visiting blogs listed in the comments; mostly because I often don’t have the time, and they’re scattered across so many posts. But I’d love for this to be a formal “show my your blog!” post; so go ahead and comment with your blog’s url–I’d love to see it!
Until tomorrow…

Hi Casey, I love reading your blog and your tutorials are fabulous. You’ve inspired me to work on a few crafty projects (I just made a lovely vintage-styled hat!) and I’m in awe of your sewing skills. I’ve dug out my sewing machine and am going to have a go at making some skirts and dresses now!
Playing hookie sounds like a great idea- have fun!!!
I love your blog! It’s very inspiring and you always have got beautiful photos. I know it’s hard to read and discover all those great blogs, but i’m always very pleased when I found something new and elegant ( like yours blog)

Well, ya know me, lady.
Don’t blame you for wanting to play a little hooky. I’ve been out of the blog-loop for four days and it was a nice break!
Your blog is great! You should visit mine: http://americanrococo.blogspot.com
I just posted a 40s-inspired editorial from NY Times Mag from a few years ago. You’d really like it!
Breaks are wonderful!
I’ve had sewing plans for a few weeks now. I managed to tackle my mending pile and maybe now I will get to sewing something new!
Have a great day, Casey!
Hey Casey, I love your style, and check out your blog everyday! I am a painter and do vintage inspired work. Check it out at http://emilyclarke.blogspot.com
You blog is always so lovely. And you’ve really inspired me to go out and learn how to sew… I’ll let you know how that turns out.
Wish I could play hookie today too.
Everybody needs time off occasionally! I’d love for you to check out my blog,

I have to admit, yours is probably one of my favorite newer blog finds recently! And Trashy Divas gotta stick together

I love that picture! There’s a picture in one of the latest Anthropologie mags that I swear they got their idea from this picture! I’ll try to find it for you. Have a lovely day sewing…I have to do some sewing too

I’m still new at this so if you have any tips I’d love to hear them. ;] Thanks!
Now I’m left wondering if I can pull off a dress with a stripe pattern that big..
I definitely love reading your blog, it’s quite refreshing to have someone so inspired by older time periods rather than focused in trends of today.
Oh, and my blog is http://spottedsushi.livejournal.com/
Aw, that was terribly nice of you to stay up with your husband…you deserve a day off!
<3
I hope you get a good rest! Feel free to check out my blog, http://studiokiekje.typepad.com

I do love vintage, but haven’t integrated it into my wardrobe like you have. I make my living as a model– I’m leaving for Istanbul tomorrow for two months– and my blog follows my travels as well as my random musings and etsy (vintage) shop updates.
Oh there’s nothing at all wrong with taking some time to yourself!
I absolutely love your blog and your style!
