Our weather is being very odd - it's been rather chilly of late! Mind you, this I prefer to the heat, so really, long may it continue!
I managed to complete my dress today.
I had nearly finished it during the week but I altered the darts today and love it.
I have also got to the sleeves for my Maywick - hopefully they won't take too long as I don't want long sleeves
I spent a little time in the garden this weekend, just a bit of tidying really. I did get some more rhubarb so I can make some more rhubarb gin. The last batch was lovely, so I'm very keen to make more!
We have a busy week this week. It is Thomas's last week of exams and Daniel has a school trip. But hopefully, will be able to put in some crafting time!
I hope everyone has a great week.
The dress looks lovely. What a delightful fabric you selected. What is the name of the pattern?
ReplyDeleteYour dress looks great on you. I can see why you want to make more. Dresses are so much cooler in the summer heat! Good luck to Thomas on his exams and hopefully Daniel will have a great trip.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty dress. Now you just need it warm enough for cap sleeves. Rhubarb gin does sound wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI love your dress. It’s been Baltic up here, heating has been coming on every morning and I had to dig out all my winter clothes so I could stop moaning about being cold. Now I’m just pretending it’s still March/April and it’s much easier to tolerate. The dress is lovely, have you thought about applying for a series of the Sewing Bee?
ReplyDeleteDoh that was Liz…I’m sure you’d have guessed that from the “up here”
