1930's fabric has been cut!

 The day started well with a lovely walk in Greenwich Park with Frank the dog. we meet up sometimes with a great woman who I didn't know before I had Frank. Meeting nice people while walking your dog is just one of the perks. Her dog is called Peggy - so it was no wonder that Frank and Peggy get on well too!
I got back and whizzed up another of my tops as two have gone and people have been asking....
 And yes the plunge was taken and i have cut into my fabulous 1930's fabric. I was so looking forward to wearing it tomorrow but then realised i didn't have the right colour zip or thread....I decided to whizz down to bluewater and grab one at John Lewis. It turned out to be a dangerous decision as there is something i find hard to resist...
 Shoes!!!! these will look great with the dress when i get to finish it. but right now i am going to bath and do my nails cos i am shattered!

  10. I just found your blog and I am immediately in love/lust over that rose fabric. Is it a vintage piece, or do you sell it? I WANT it!!! :)
