Upcycling

Or simply recycling.....On Friday morning it was little worn top of mine, by Friday afternoon it had become a new addition to Chloe's wardrobe, which she very modelled over the weekend!

Autumn Collection

As September can bring such a mix of weather I've started on a few autumnal outfits that can be worn anytime from now onwards....

Farbenmix Zilli denim skirt and long sleeve tee shirt from Ottobre Design

I had great fun creating my own pattern for the Eiffle Tower, ironing it on and then filling in the dots. It took a while but I'm very pleased, and most importantly, so is Chloe, with the result!

Sara skirt in embroidered black denim and long sleeved tee shirt both patterns from Ottobre Design. The tee shirt was made from a tee shirt of mine that was too low cut at the front, so I'm very happy with my bit of upcycling!

Sleep Tight, Starry Night

Chloe's new winter pyjamas!

Dots and Stripes

Well I had to give this post that title because thet's where these lovely fabrics came from.....

The dress is the Nana knitted dress from Ottobre Design Winter 08 with a long sleeve turtleneck top underneath, also made from an Ottobre pattern but in the Autumn 07 issue.



The last of the summer clothes!

The last few bits for this summer:

Now for the autumn/winter wardrobe......!

Jeans

"And after the school skirt please can you make me a pair of jeans......"

School Skirt

Chloe decided last week that she would prefer that I made her a new school skirt rather than bought one! I adapted the pattern Zucka by Farbenmix and am very happy with the result....
