I'm thinking about making myself a hat...

Moving Day was over a week ago but my friends and family have kept me really busy...retirement is great!

Hey, to all my local sewing buddies, if you are still interested in checking out my stash, it's now at Thrift Addiction, next door to my shop (EX shop). Sorry, the shoji screens have already sold, but there are plenty of high-end fabrics, notions, samples, mannequins, and furniture that I just didn't want to keep and I was too lazy to try and sell myself. Thanks to Thrift Addiction!

How am I spending my last day at work you ask, before I retire after 44 years? Doing a zipper/velcro installation on a quadraplegic's pants...7 of them to be exact!

Counting down the days...

I said I was going to have another sale later this month and include machines and fixtures but that has been cancelled. Already taken!

The decision is made! This gorgeous lace from Bridal Fabrics in the UK, over a dewkist green silk double georgette from Mood.

Current and upcoming projects...looks like Spring!

This is what I'm doing on Saturday. If you have ever wanted to learn how to hem or fit a dress, I'll be glad to help you!

This time next week, Fit That Dress alterations workshop, with the one and only Barbara Stone! Sign-up on our website.
