Make

Ever growing collection...
I've been adding to my ever growing collection of lace corsages. They were an experiment at first but I have had so many positive comments that I have made a few for friends and have requests to make more.  I love them and I am really happy others like them too......I feel an online shop coming soon :-)

I've been busy making more and more corsages. I had a go using fabrics, making different sizes. Its something I am going to continue and experiment with. I have bought some lovely anchor buttons and plan to make some nautical themed corsages over the next few days, weeks. Keep an eye out for new additions.


Sew

Summer is coming....
The sun was shining last weekend so I was inspired to make some summer clothing from fabrics I had in my fabric box. I have loads of fabrics- I tend to buy any that I like whether I need it at the time or not. I always know one day I will make use. The blue floral fabric was purchased from the Rag Market in Birmingham- a great place for a bargain. I managed to pick this up for £2 a mtr. I saw it at the recently Sew for Pleasure at NEC for £8 a mtr. Glad I bought it when I did. Can wait to wear the dress and top now...roll on summer!!
