New blanket dresses

Two new dresses I made this week, the colours remind me of Easter- I think it's the pastel colours.

More summer woollies

This is what I've been working on this week (in and around school holidays activities, shovelling compost and soil into a new garden bed, and Andrew being in Brisbane), four of each of these from gorgeous wool blankets I found last weekend.  Just wondering if I might need to make one of the lemon/pink/purple ones for one of my girls, it just looks like Easter colours to me!  Some of my vests will be appearing in Nurture by Nature Sustainable Living very soon.

My new pyjamas

My new birthday pyjamas arrived today, they are rather lovely. The photos on Eternal Creation's website didn't do them justice, as you can't see the fabric up close. The pink buttons are sewn on with green thread - cute and quirky detail I like! I like to have an in between pair of PJ's, these are made with a light weight cotton, good for autumn and spring. It's nice to know your consumer dollars are not being used to make huge profits for some, and very low wages for others. There's more information on how this business treats its workers fairly on the website. We bought my mum the sakura kimono for Christmas, and Evie has the sakura pyjamas for this winter. Livinia has also been wearing a couple of Evie's hand me down PJ's from there too.
