Stashbusting..
During the month of May, I used two plus two half lengths from the stash; my teal silk dress, and my paprika tights used a whole length each, and my striped Tshirt and black tights each used a portion of those fabric lengths… plus I refashioned one garment, and knitted a pair of winter gloves. I’m back on track!
I love your little sketches, makes me what to have a go, but not sure I could keep up the pace.
I love the sketch books. I like the idea of sitting down with them at the end of the book with a glass of wine flicking through beautiful designs and images. Thanks for sharing. Jo x
I love your paper doll project is so inspiring! I have to draw my mini-me…
I am impressed with your work on sketches. All of them are beautiful:)
Gorgeous.
I'm glad the paper dolls are back. I really enjoy being able to see several days outfits at the same time 🙂
I like your paper doll. (j'aime les poupees de papier)
Love your paper doll project! I also like to sketch my creations. Beautiful work.
Love the paper dolls – I really am going to order a fashionary, keep forgetting!
I love this project, too! You have such great style, Carolyn, and I am in envy of your beautiful handmade wardrobe.
Thank you so much for the mention! You've made my day!
Looking at your paper dolls, I'm realizing that you really wear quite a variety of profiles and I admire that. Lately, I've definitely been stuck in a rut of jeans and tees, because I've been decluttering.
