My order of fabric came from the USA the other day and I have been itching to use it and the first thing I made was a new dress for Poppy in this fabulous pink skull print fabric.
I have got quite fast at making these now and I can actually but the bia binding on with no trouble at all now, yippee!!

My Best Friend's Wedding
My wonderful friend Claire who I have known since I was 12 and who I love to pieces and is the only person I feel totally comfortable and at peace with (apart from the Mr) got married at the weekend.
I wanted to make something to wear to her wedding and used and original 60's pattern for the dress and a 60's style pattern for the jacket, I used an amazing purpley blue 2 tone silky fabric which also had turquoise motifs and metallic bronze thread embroidered throughout for the dress and plain for the jacket.
It turned out perfectly (which my things never do usually!), it was fate! I wore it and it was so comfy, I am very, very pleased with it.
