SPRING DRESSES, SUNSETS & SONGS

This week I've been finishing off some new dresses, the first has been my new sleeveless, swing Peter Pan Collar dress which I've made using this very popular vintage M&S fabric. I took some really cute photos of Mabel modeling it with her Mary Quant style bob

Perfect little Spring/Summer dress

and there's even a ladies version of this one

Vintage Sarah Kay Holly Hobby Fabric 

Square Neck Dress

Leaving the city behind a whole six years ago next month, I still enjoy going back and having my 'city fix' it's something I enjoy and need. 

This week as we sat on the beach outside a pub on the river the sun setting and the children playing, there could be no doubt in my mind that we did make the right decision.

On Wednesday Bella went with her school choir to sing at Exeter Cathedral with other choirs, they were joined by the Military Wives. The acoustics and atmosphere were amazing and gave me goosebumps. Very proud Mum moment!

NEW RANGE - NEW LOGO

Blood sweat and (almost tears) I met my deadline for 28th February to launch my website along with a new and lovely logo designed by a graphic design friend Leah.  This season I have my usual oilcloth bags the Bella and the Mabel, I also have the new vintage fabric Missy Bag named after our cat and the huge Japanese style Betty Bag named after our Camper van!! We've now run out of females in our house so no more bags.......

I have the popular shift dress for ladies from last season, but also a new tunic dress and smock dress. Girls have a new Peter Pan collar dress, with sleeves and without and also the tops, there's a new square neck dress and the ever popular shift dress.  As always I've used a lot of recycled fabrics therefore they are limited and will change on a weekly basis, but just for good measure I've also started using some new.
