YAY, we're back from holidays in Singapore and Thailand and I've just been reading through all your lovely notes from my 31/31 pieces from my personal sewing marathon in December. LOVED that you loved my little things (the exciting ones and the boring ones alike! Boring is still good, right!?) and thought you'd like to see the Romper I made for the wedding ! I outlined the sewing construction details ( By Hand London 's Anna top, vintage 1970s pattern for the shorts) in the blog post but here's me in it with my darling friend Jo (and cousin of the bride) who is from the amazingly gorgeous Melbourne band Big Scary ! Aren't we vintage pastel fabric queens: We loved being away and just adored Thailand, such a beautiful spot for a wedding! I'll post some scenic shots soon, there was just really gorgeous landscapes with the water, huge cliff faces and bush land, jungle spaces! Anyways, I loved wearing my romper, it was really comfy and good for crouching down wi...

URGH, I wanted a quickie tshirt for the warmer weather the other day here in Melbs... so I found some red stretch fabric, but I didn't really check its stretch... (you'd think I'd be aware of checking after the leggings mishap )... so cut, sewed the shoulder seams, added the bias neckline, sewed up the side seams and chucked it on. UM, the fabric is RIBBED and therefore super wide now, everywhere:   Oh well, it's not bad for a stay at home mum look. A little Flashdance on the shoulders perhaps?! It was a stay at home day for me anyways because of my rollers... hotter days helps set them quicker! Hope you're having a lovely weekend! xoxo
