flowers

hi bloggers, thanks so much for the recent comments,
I resently picked these delicate blooms from shrubs and trees in our garden I thought they looked so pretty in this inexpensive jug from Ikea that Ive gone ahead and planted several types of cut flowers which will be in bloom during the summer months.So its a case of waiting for mother nature to do her magic and provide me with lots and lots of Fressias, Gladiolus, Sweetpea, Gipsophila and Astors to adorn our home this summer:)

Project: White Linen Kaftan

Hi Bloggers, well Ive been really lazy with the blogging, but not so lazy with the sewing-so here's a look at my latest project.
I have decided to make a kaftan from two metres of white very light weight linen that Ive had for ages. The pretty lace I bought in a little shop in Co.Kildare and I embellished with silver thread as with the L.W.D in my last post.
I hope to post lots more as I will be making lots of pieces for my upcoming market stall. Hope you enjoy my post, have a great week :)
