WTY Thursday No. 3

Been planning my bridal boutique collection but found this beautiful piece of purple velvet, very regal and thought would try some heavy machine embroidered lace turned into an evening clutch bag so went slightly off track.

Will be adding some silk varieties to the bridal collection but without the gusset section and adding a wrist strap

Also been working on some ideas for a new baby the first to come off the machine is an heirloom keepsake pillow with a baby in a bassinet with the name and date of birth, shown in pink but can be done in blue for a boy. 

Then lost track again.......

Finally what could be better than a fun Birthday gift for a girlfriend, Mum, sister and more of the character door hanging for January and February. Will be adding March soon. Made in a spotted caramel cotton depicting a sassy lady.

Colours of Autumn

The day's are getting shorter, the leaves are turning, squirrels are storing nuts for the winter months ahead. Crisp mornings, a sun with no warmth spells the onset of Autumn. Born in October I love the Autumnal mornings and apart from the rain the cooler weather, the build up to a magical Christmas.

My offering for the Colours of Autumn is a silk patchwork bag, embroidered with leaves, lined with cream an ideal size for the evening.

Silk Stripe Clutch

Show and Tell Monday with MMP

The weather is changing and Autumn is almost here, crisp mornings with a nip in the air that really does not disappear through out the day. Hunting for the sun for a smidgeon of warmth is getting harder, will soon be lighting the fire. In some ways I welcome this time of year with the anticipation of Christmas just around the corner, decorations up and lights twinkling, shops giving way to the sparkle, glitter and magic of gifts to come.

Until then a silk stripe flower clutch purse, in colours more reminiscent of the summer or they could be cool as a glacier, would look good with in the evening summer or winter.


Add either the blue or pink wrap for a perfect outfit for any occasion
