Sewing Mojo In Overdrive!!

I was feeling less than unmotivated in the post-Xmas slump. Then I went on a solo road trip to the Trash and Treasure Blogmeet.

Nothing like a meeting with like minds to restart your creative engines! I've been re-energised and am so keen to get into my studio and sew like crazy! I've even been making things like dresses for my own daughter, can you believe it!?

Yes folks, it's like the wife who has a plumber for a husband. She'll have that leaky tap at home for weeks before he gets to it. I am always sewing something but more often than not, 'It's for the shop'. Poor neglected child!

This time Enid Gilchrist came to the rescue and I used this pattern from Enid's Three to Six book. It's a draft-yourself type pattern which was really easy. Got to love a pattern for a good old frock. And one that apparently 'Makes washing easy'. I just love the little flower pocket detail!

And this is the result...

And I've also been busy sewing for Silly Gilly. You've seen the smock and library bags and today I posted off some more wet bags to Oz Baby Trends. Look out, bloomers for 18mths - 3yrs and new Japanese craft print library bags coming soon to Silly Gilly...
