Pretty in pink....

Another style of wrap over dress, this one has waist ties with a button detail and is made in the prettiest pink with daisy pattern fabric.

St patrick's day...

Another recycled denim skirt. This time I added a pleated trim and big fabric ties in a faux patchwork shamrocks printed cotton. It would make a lovely themed skirt to wear at a St Patrick's day celebration.

Fairies in the garden...

I had just enough of this beautiful fairy fabric to make this little dress. I designed it as a sundress style (though you could use it over a t shirt or long sleeved top) with a buttoned back and stretchy straps for comfort.

I don't expect to keep this one for long!

Spring has sprung...

I'm fed up with the winter weather so I decided to brighten things up with some spring and summer projects...starting with this cute little girls' outfit. It's actually quite a simple style to make, but the spots and stripes look really effective!

I'm moving on to the next spring project...and will be taking them to the Artisans in Action demonstration and craft fair at the Waters' Edge Visitor Centre, Barton on Humber on the 10th and 11th March...if you can't make it there have a look in my FOLKSY shop for more lovely spring outfits!

Custom make...

This outfit was a custom make for a Mother of the Bride winter wedding. The customer was a larger lady and had a very definite idea on her design and colour scheme..she brought her fabrics to me...another learning curve as it was quite a challenge to put a stretchy, heavy lace overlay over a lightweight slippery silky fabric! Unfortunately the biggest dress form I have was still several sizes too small even at it's largest, so she needed more fittings than usual (and it actually looked nicer on her than in these photos). She was pleased with the end result, though it's not one I would want to repeat in a hurry!

Going, going, gone...

Just sold this beautiful Jane Austen inspired regency dress on Ebay, so this style is now available as a custom make...you can choose your colours/fabrics...just contact me for details.

I love period dramas...the Jane Austen ones are my favourites and I've been wanting to make some dresses in this style for ages. This is my first (hopefully I'll get to do more as I really enjoyed making this one), it's typical regency style and it's now available from my ETSY shop!
