Colour Me Red

The lovely Sigrid McCarthy from Colour Me Red wrote this great article not so long ago! I'm even in it! I definitely recommend you check it out. She also posted a little interview with me over here! I'm just so busy with uni at the moment, but it really makes me wish that I had a bit more time for some sewing projects.

Thanks Siggi!

I recently made this little custom order dress. Brown is definitely not my colour - I don’t think I own a single brown item of clothing. By the time I finished this dress, however, I was having other ideas! I love the combination of the red and the brown. It has such a nice earthy, autumnal feel. I think I will begin the hunt for some similar fabric to make a dress of my own!

And the payment was even cuter than the actual dress! Blue wrens are my number one fave! So sweet.

at the market

Today I popped on down to the North Melbourne Market where I had a stall. While the market was not quite as busy as I hoped, it was lots of fun to set up a little stall and see all my dresses hanging out on display!

Eep I am getting a little excited for my stall at the North Melbourne Market this weekend! If you're in the area, pop on down and say hello! I'll be selling lots of pretty dresses, tops and skirts; as well as heaps of cute badges and hair accessories!

North Melbourne Market

Today we popped down to the North Melbourne Market, where they were having a ‘special designer event’ for Spring. There were so many beautiful things! It made me extra nervous and excited for my own stall, which I will be holding there next month! Time to get busy busy sewing like a beetle!

I have lots of new pretties which need to go up on the etsy shop! Little Siena is in Queensland at the moment, so as soon as she gets back we’ll be taking lots of photos and updating the store.

New Lovelies

Hooray, I have lots of pretty new vintage and recycled fabrics! I can't wait until the soaking/washing process is over, so I can get sewing! I love finding great pre-loved fabrics. Putting something old to use again - turning it into something special - is probably my favourite part about making dresses!



And in other news... I'm all booked in for my first market stall! I will be at the North Melbourne Market in October! It's not for a while, but I have lots of preparations to make! Exciting!
