Aug/Sept Updates!

BlogpostPublished: Aug 23, 2008Views: 390

I'm slowly trying to get back into the swing of things. I really don't have much motivation for creating anymore but every so often I'll work on a little something. So here a few things that I had finished up for you guys. First, the techie outfit for teens included in Free Time. It's one of my favorite Maxis outfits so I couldn't help recoloring it. Then aikea_quinea converted the maxis mesh for adults so I had to recolor that one too. And last, but never least, I started working on some jewelry sets right after my niece passed away in June. They are from Lianaa's full jewelry mesh. They include earrings, necklace, bracelet, and ring. I made each set for base game and Bon Voyage. *These are dedicated to my mom, who was called Mary by everyone but her real name was Ethel, she passed away a little over two weeks ago on Aug 6; my niece Hannah, who passed away a little over two months ago on Jun 21; and to my other beautiful nieces. I plan on doing ten total sets to represent all of them, so keep a look out for the rest.*

I actually came to make a comment about your creations, but saw your blog and wanted to say that I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I lost my own mom to cancer in 1989, and while no one can know what anyone else goes through with a tragedy...I do remember how utterly devastating it was for me at the time, so I can only imagine what this must be like for you.

My thoughts are with you, and I can only hope you do pick up creating again, because you make just lovely things. They're *plain*! And by that I mean they look like something a normal, everyday person would wear. Not a supermodel, not a rich socialite, just plain folks. It is nearly impossible to find that kind of thing. So thank you. Oh, and thank you for your jewelry, too - I ended up using one of the Hanna collection as a plot point in my legacy thread (cheating husband buys it as a guilt present for his wife - I said they were moonstones)

Thank you for sharing your creations with us.

Stuff Packs at once, so I don't know where the newest items come from.)

Again-I am truly, truly sorry to hear of your loss, and I know the Community will be happy to welcome you back when you're ready to make your triumphant return. The best of luck to you and your family.

P.S. I started my second comment right where the first one cut off. I forgot about the text limit on comments. >.< I probably should have posted this in your guest book, but it's too late now, haha.

I've been in the middle of a move, so I've only had time to check your latest publications, and not actually read your updates.

I'm so sorry to read of the tragedy that's struck your family, and I wish you all the best in pulling through it together.

I originally stopped in to make a small request of you, since you do such quality work here at TSR, but I fully understand putting your Sims' creating on hold. However, when you do get around to it, I'd love to see some recolors of Maxis female underwear. For example, I like the tank-top-and-briefs look that Maxis offers (very casual, comfortable), but I get sick of only seeing black, white, and pink. I'd love to se some striped undies paired with a solid tank, or vice versa, and your color schemes are so bold and vibrant, it'd be a great break from the plain colors Maxis has provided.

Perhaps recolors of some of the newer undies-I think they were released with the Kitchen and Bath Stuff Pack. (I'm playing on a friend's laptop and I installed all the S
