Monday... I need inspiration, although I have had a productive day working on 2 gowns.

I thought this was just right and Oh so pretty, far too good to eat but a real treat to the eye!

Busy, Busy, Busy

It has been quite a while since I have done a blog.
I have been really busy with many projects.
For 2 whole weeks I have been making something different from usual for a lovely friend of mine.
Two huge pairs of silk French pleated interlined curtains. I kid you not it is easier making a Wedding dress.
 I have enjoyed the challenge and the amazing fabric that she chose, it makes all the difference.

Today I have been in my studio making a stunning gown in Ivory silk dupion with a polka dotted organza over skirt which fishtails out into a train.
I am looking forward to my Bride coming for her second  fitting, there is still quite a few hours of work left to do, including several metres of hems x4 layers of silk...I hope she likes it!
