Just made - ready for selling-cushions!



Kate Bentley and I have just finished making these cushions from vintage scarves.
 We love them and we're selling them at our sale on 11th and 12th October-if we can bear to part them!






Picasso!



The ones with snaffles and equestrian accoutrements look so brilliantly graphic- they would look great a masculine room.



I adore this still life one- it's so unusual as a scarf and works even better as a cushion!



paisley looks so right...






Anyway, these are just a small selection of what we have- come and see and buy on 11th and 12th October!

just made!


I  just designed and pattern cut this dress for the beautiful Emily to wear to a wedding somewhere scorching in USA.

work in progress....
It's made from a fabulous printed silk satin. you can see here where I've tacked it together that the print forms a 'bullseye' over the bum and fans out.

 Finished result...I hope Emily will forgive me posting this pic of hers- I'm waiting until she's  back from the wedding( maybe the dress will be trashed?! -if it was raucous one?!) to do a proper little photo shoot!
