i have been a bad blogger of late- apologies!
but i just want to show you a dress i made for bella, out of soft brown material with pink lining.
i'm pretty pleased since it's the first item of clothing i've made where i have completely made up the pattern myself, there's something very satisfying and liberating about designing your own pattern.
but i have to say, measuring your child before making a dress for her is a great idea and i wish i had done that instead of ending up with a skintight dress that i had completely undo in order to add side panels to make it fit!
here she is wearing it as she steals the lid of the laundry bin-cheeky monkey!

Love the heart-shaped pockets!!!!
That is ridiculously adorable. And I agree with Alice about the pockets. If I was having a girl this time around, I think I'd be commissioning one of these.
It looks gorgeous!
Mmmm gorgeous! How much do you charge?
Can't believe I can't spell my own name!
ah thanks ladies! You're all very kind!
Anne, i don't think i will ever sell any clothes i make-they are far too scruffy for any child that's not mine!
Xx
