While the children were away the other week I had a small sewing frenzy.
i | a white cotton pointelle top [or 2] for miss Pia - shown
ii | a black cotton pointelle pair of leggings [or 2] for miss Pia
iii | a red grey and white duvet cover for Miss Pia made from crisp white cotton and Bird Textile "The Man In The Lake" fabric
iv | a black skirt for me
v | a light wool jersey drape top for me, another from Drape Drape [no.13]
vi | 2 pyjama pants - 1 each for master Max and miss Pia.
And in amongst that I cooked, and we made a huge leap forward in getting our bathroom finished. Oh to have that time ALL the time to sit and sew....
Miss Pia's outfit is without a doubt the sweetest thing I have seen in a while....far better than what is in C.Road of late.
