A little French inspired whimsy


I've had this fabric for about 6 months now - it's one of those fabrics I fell in love with but had no idea what I was going to do with it. Well, now I have.

I adore the carousel, french street lights and shop fronts together with the lace filigree on the bottom and it ties in surprisingly well with denim. This one is for Mia and is a size two, designed to sit just above/on the knee. Add a simple white T and this is one cute outfit.

Girly in blue?

Whilst I've had many friends and family ask when I'm going to start selling clothes online or at markets I seem to be content (for the moment) just making one off pieces for special people in my life. Of course, Mia and Tom are at the top of the list but I've had quite a few orders lately and they've taken a backseat.

I was recently asked to make a couple of winter dresses for my beautiful god daughter in Melbourne and here is one of them.

I've said many times before that girls CAN wear colours other than pink (and still look like girls) and I love making that happen as often as possible. I think this dress is a perfect example.
