Finally finished! And a car boot find :D


I have finally finished that blasted "Ornithology" collection I started months ago.




I had planned to list them all at once but I was so SLOW I've sold half of them already.


With Blythecon UK approaching and the need for stall stock, not to mention the fact that I had started and just about finished another collection entirely, I thought it was about time I finished.







So, 27 dresses later (27!! what was I thinking?) here it is! I was so inspired and proud of this collection when I started and one or two of them I think work really well. The next collection "Stitched by Pixies" is only 18 dresses and much more varied design wise so it's kept me inspired and interested all the way through. Incidentally, lol that collection was finished at the same time lol. A lot of these are sold already but the rest will be at Blythecon UK and the remainder will be back on Etsy, possibly in a sale.



CAR BOOT FIND!




I picked up this cute little locker for 50p on saturday. I didn't even pause to think if I wanted it or not at that price. It's real metal but none of my girls are into pink (yet).


I thought someone in the community might like it or perhaps I could paint it.




BUT! I decided it would make a PERFECT toy cupboard :D

One day I want a dolls house, I've been getting inspired looking through Flickr and browsing ebay for Sindy houses. One day.

Another day another dress.

I promise, only six more bird theme dresses to go.
I'm getting sick of them.
My next collection will be 18 dresses or less, what was I thinking doing 27!!

Two new dresses in the shop today.


I finally got round to finishing this Tea Cup print dress I've had cut out for a month or so lol.




Here is the first of the last nine "Ornithology Collection" dresses.
They have longer bodices and longer fuller skirts than the other dresses and different design and colour combinations as they all do.





One down Eight to go!! Then I can start on my new set of dresses! Well, I've already made one lol but I can get really stuck into designing the combinations which I love!

Just a couple more fabrics to buy and some cute buttons to arrive from Etsy.

I love making dolly dresses, I can treat myself to some really expensive gorgeous braids and I only need 1 metre for 3 or 4 dresses worth!! BLISS!!

Have a great weekend folks, as per usual we'll be stealing some time in the garden :D Hopefully preparing the chicken coop!!!
