Vision
I received a lovely surprise from Trudi at last weeks NCB....
This lovely piece of vintage fabric came from her aunty (please correct me if I'm wrong Trudi).
It's the perfect amount of fabric to whip up a lovely vintage style dress..... I wonder if that was the original intention when it was purchased?
As I've never sewn a proper dress for myself before, I'm going to put my birthday voucher to use, and enlist some help from Bec.
In the meantime, Frances is looking quite sauve draped in a vision of loveliness....

My creative space
It's all about the circles at the moment....... I'm spying them everywhere.
I'd decided earlier in the year that I really wanted to take some time to work on some textile art, so when the February Finki challenge was announced, I was completely inspired (just not inspired quite enough to get it all done in February)..
I took along my new pen roll to the market on Saturday, and spent the quiet times doodling circles, and cutting out vinyl circles.
The textile piece is going to have a chocolate brown linen blend fabric as the background, with lots of circle embellishments. I picked up this very beautiful hand dyed wool felt from Trudi a few weeks ago. Trudi has a brand new blog - Me & Ewe, and Etsy shop . The colours are truly amazing (I'm also loving the bright purple, bright leaf green, and jade green. I can't wait to cut out lots of different sized pink and orange circles and lay them out all together....
With any luck, I may even make some progress before next weeks My Creative Space rolls around!
