the second project i finished last week was a skirt for little O, i opted for a more muted colour scheme, but then that means she can get away with wearing it now (with a pair of tights) instead of having to wait for spring to arrive
i'd had this one planned in my head for a while, i just love the Denyse Schmidt, wallflower fabric (from here) which i teamed with some Kaffe Fassett shot cotton (sorry can't remember what the colour was called but i got it from here) it's ever so soft, i'd love to make myself something to wear with it
i added a little lace & ribbon to make the pockets, it's had the seal of approval, as she chose to wear it at the weekend
back with more sewing soon
Love the fabric. Fab skirt, well done.
ReplyDeleteThat is beautiful and I love the colours you have put together - almost like an apron skirt.

That is so pretty, and the colours are soft and lovely. I have some of the Hope Valley awaiting attention and I am itching to sew after many many months.
ReplyDeleteLovely colour scheme, you really do make beautiful things. XxX
ReplyDeleteWow Kelly this is truely beautiful. I love the choice of fabric and colour, the lace detail is stunning. When are you going to open a shop? ps. thanks for your top info on camp bestival..., I hear Mr Tumble is regular, that guy is a legend in our house! xx
ReplyDeleteOh It's lovely. I too love the wallflower fabric it's such a gorgeous bluey grey.
ReplyDeleteReally like the detail on the pockets, I'm not surprised your daughter has given it the seal of approval!
Such beautiful fabric- full of the joys of spring x
ReplyDeletesuch a pretty little creation x

wow this is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute! I agree, the Denise Schmidt is one of my favorites! I've been holding onto a scrap of it for a loooooong time now! I'm waiting for just the right project.
ReplyDeleteGood grief I love those Hope Valley fabrics - I'm using them in a quilt top at the moment, but this is such a great use of that pretty wallflower pattern. Love it. I have some of the Kaffe Fassett shot cotton too - it looks like the one that's called Sludge (maybe why you forgot the name...!).
