... lovely ladies in hoops

My new 10" hoops with their first set of lovely ladies all based on the beautiful drawings from vintage sewing patterns



 
 


They are all for sale at the wonderful Johnny Rocks Vintage Emporium in Cheltenham

Go and check out his beautiful dresses at his Facebook page and show him some love.  I would give anything to be able to sew like him!

... Debbie made




This is the design for the postcards I am ordering this week to advertise my new crafty venture.

I wish I had her poise when sewing, I think my back would appreciate it!  I am afraid to disappoint my loyal followers by divulging that I sew in more of a 'hunched over in my lounge pants with the tele on' kind of way.  Not in the alert pose this lady employs when crafting.

If only I could live up to my own romantic notions....
