More rompers

The little model is more than willing. She strikes as many poses as you want (and a few more).

Here is a "balloon" sort of rompers, which closes with bows on the shoulders. In an ideal world, it will have press buttons on the inseam.

Can you tell we have SIAO 2014 on our minds already?

Testing new styles...

Playing around with the little miss (how convenient to have a model at home!) and new, comfortable and casual styles.

We'll keep working at it until we are satisfied it can go into production. Come back to this page to see how well we're doing!

Appliqué initialed table linen

Because a new house needs new accessories, and also because we'd left this line of articles aside for far too long...

This is my production of yesterday. Six 100% cotton placemats (2 for each member of the family) with initials and matching napkin or bib in a beautiful soft-coloured batik.

I love the easy to use tiny patterns, the subtle gradation ...

... and understated mix of colours ...

and this top-heavy lettering (Showcard Gothic) which, I think, lends a decidedly modern-retro feel to something that could so easily err on the side of well-meaning handicrafts of some soppy Lady Bountiful.

Flour sack...

What can you do on a Sunday morning, with a little girl, a sack of flour and a few scrap materials? 

You can sew a "pillowcase" dress.

Or, you can create instant lounging trousers.

Don't we have a perfect model?

Now with a headscarf cut in the same batik as the top, bottom and string of the trousers (requested by the model herself):
