I am going to spend a whole day in my sewing room!

 

Some inspiration here,a japanese pattern,putting a lace collar on a smock dress would brihten it up !

I will spend a bit of time sorting through my lace box.It is lovely just to look at it all !

I wish I could buy dress patterns in some of the shabby chic type fashions but so far although I have trawled  the net I have not come across any.

This is gorgeous made by Inge de Jonge.

I am always torn between making a garment or starting a patchwork

 

This is a favourite pattern,Folkwear have a wonderful array of ethnic and historical patterns,maybe I will have a look at them.

Bedtime now maybe I will dream of fabrics,lace and the silk route!
