For Joy

My friend Joy requested a wee while ago that I make her a coat for winter to keep her toastie. I agreed. We briefly spoke of what she wanted and off I went and created her a coat over Queens Birthday weekend. It was my last project before I start on the big Wedding project. aaargh!

Creative Cats

I have joined an awesome group who gather together once a month around yummy treats in front of a warm fire and do crafts. It might sound geeky to some but its flippin amazing to say the least. We all share knowledge and make some pretty sweet stuff. Since then, I found that there are not enough hours in the day to make stuff. We all motivate each other to start and finnish projects and we also have 'show off and tell' where we all show off what weve been up to since we last saw each other.

New things

I haven't posted any creations in a while but I definitly have been a little busy bee. I promise. Craft has taken over my life in the last few weeks and there has been little time for internet. Hoping to post more soon but heres 2 shapeless dresses I have made. Im loving them for winter cos theyre so comfy to wear with a warm pair of tights and a belt. Depending on my mood, I wear them with some round toe heels or my comfy flat boots.

here goes...

Thank yous go out to the talented Tania for the photos and Jodique salon for the nails.

Pretty Pictures

 I have some photos to share.

My twin dear friend Delia agreed to letting me get all up in her pretty face with my camera so I could take some photos of some garments that I have been working on lately.

Theres actually only two items that I made in these photos but Delia looks so beautiful in these that I have decided to put many on.

I made the pink top to inject some colour into my dark winter wardrobe. Not sure what inspired the design. I didnt really put much pre-thought into it but it all came together at the end of the night. Got the fabric from Global Fabrics.

The second item I made is a winter coat as it is definitly a need for these cold days that are creeping in.

good times!
