lush dress

Ta Da !!!!

Here is the dress I made!!

What do you think????

It's ages since I made anything for myself...but I think this is the start of many more new additions to my wardrobe.It has been a combination of not finding any nice fabric that I like and not having the time to sit down and sew over the past few years that has stopped me making more for myself. Silly really because most stuff I buy in the shops has to be altered to fit properly anyway.

But anyway I am back.....back sewing ....with a passion..!!

I added a little gather to the sleeve to kinda dressy it up a bit more.

Originally I was looking for a skinny silver belt but having failed to get one I thought of this ribbon.

And of course the bag.....and the shoes. I bought these shoes about 2 years ago(very expensive).I love them..they go with everything . Best shoes I ever invested in...and I sure did invest. I can wear them all day and never have sore feet.

And my cute ring..

Scrappy was ,of course .out to see what i was up to....he was a lot hairier a few weeks ago but I gave him a ,not very good,haircut....Much cooler for him now..

I am off to a wedding today...in my new dress....the sun is shining and birds are singing..looks like it's going to be a lovely day.

I am linking up to lush friday, amys sew and tell and simply designing....why don't you check them out....
