I love this little fella......My boy in a very swiss family robinson tunic by beautiful local label mamapapa, I love their range. And this "down to the woods" scotty dog lamp is adorable isn't it? Personally I think the blue peg makes this shot, he does love a peg!
ok, this isn't much but it's a start. This is an image I found while going through some old photos and links. Its a nice detail shot of a dress I made. I loved it, I applied these vintage print petal appliques through the whole collection, I was petal obsessed, that was 6 years ago and I still love them! I will put a bunch of pics up tomorrow.
Oh goodness where does my time go? I need to re size some photos and I'll be back in the morning with a whole bunch of new and old images of dresses, trees and other things. thanks for looking.......
This is the beginning of my all new blogging experience, all new for me, a fairly low tech make it by hand kind of person. I will put up pics of my works in progress and photos of things I like that. Back with more soon............
I am a Sydney based fashion & jewellery designer and maker of many things fashion and not.... I am on a part time hiatus from real work while I look after my beautiful baby boy who keeps me very busy......I am always thinking about the next thing I'll do but right now I am having fun being a freelance stylist, maker (see issue 3 of Papier mache magazine online), photographer and whatever creative opportunity comes my way next.
I like clothing made by hand with love & consideration. I adore stitches, cotton thread, print, embroidery, beading, vintage lace and I really appreciate a good thimble and beading needle.
I have a rather big vintage fabric collection which I have gathered over the years & I use these fabrics, mostly vintage prints, throughout my ranges. Where possible I try to buy fairtrade and/or organic and vintage fabrics.
I do what I can to step lightly, buy my food locally, walk everywhere and keep life simple.
I love handmade crafts, fashions, vintage finds from across the globe. I am inspired by the many beautiful blogs out there, I can't even hope to make mine as beautiful but I will try, thanks for looking.
