My Place and Yours....

I thought this one sounded a bit fun, a bit like snooping through someones bathroom cupboards.
noooo, we don't do that do we!?!
so this is my handbag, the MOST awesome LEGO bag that was a gift from my sister from LEGOLAND in Denmark!
so super cool, the zipperpull is even a lego block!!
ok, so it's a big bag, and today being a work day there was extra stuff in there,
asthma puffa, deodorant, eyedrops, pawpaw lip balm,
notepads, sunnies, wallet, phone, keys, a stack of my new business cards,
a few neurofen, my eco carry bag,
my voucher for spotlight (just incase I happen to go past in the next few days)
and yes, a tapemeasure, go figure...
oh, and a remnant of fabric from work.
I told you it was a big bag!!

a productive day...

have been a wee bit busy today finishing off this dress sample above that has been in the works for a number of months! waiting ever so patiently for the fabric to be released, then pouncing on the first shipment!
It seems to be the fabric of the moment, I have seen about 3 other labels using the same fabric range in very similar ways.
oh well, never mine, here is my version!
and another cutie dress with pretty pleating across the front
a super comfy dress that ties at the shoulders
both dresses are great for all weather
layering is such a great way to get more wear out of those favourite wardrobe pieces.
hope you love as I do!!
I have just listed them in my made it shop,
be sure to pop on over here and have a peek!!

My Creative Space...

my creative space this week has moved in next to the heater!!

spending my time cutting out lot's of gorgeous hats for my summer range

so many colours they make me think of beautiful fruity sorbet

this one has to be my favourite! can't go past the lotus print from Amy Butler!


and all the while staring at this amazing slither of MARIMEKKO fabric

that my gorgeous sister brought me back from Denmark

along with some handcarved wooden buttons from Norway.

I must look at them until it hits me what I am to make from them.

something for myself that will not date......
