Flower girl dress
I found new love for my sewing machine tonight!
Here is a little mock up of a flower girl dress. My brother is getting married in June and I have been given the task of making my niece Evie her flower girl dress! She is only 2 a very excited about wearing a pretty princess dress!
This one is just made out of calico I wanted to make sure the pattern worked. I will also try this on Evie to make sure it fits!
The plan is to make the bodice out of silk dupion, I have managed to take the scraps from work (perks of work for a bridal designer) and as she is so small I don't need much. The skirt will be layers of tulle with a silk sash round the middle.
Im so excited about this little project, Ill update you over the next few months when I start making the final one... Watch this space!

William Morris Fabric
Second hand is the best hand! This is my latest find from a antique shop in Seven Oaks which is stuffed full of little finds. This is a lovely piece of Sanderson William Morris - Granville fabric. Love the vibrant green and the pop of the blue flowers in between... Now what shall I make with it?

Jacq made a blind...
How do you make a Roman blind? ... Throw sand in their face!! (my Dad's joke)
I recently made a roman blind for the hallway, surprisingly easy to make as long as you are good at measuring accurately. You can buy a roman blind kit from Terrys fabrics online. It tells you how to make it and gives you everything you need (apart from the fabric)
I searched high and low for this striped fabric and then came across exactly what I wanted in Ikea.
