'Can I Walk Your Dog?'-AVA SKIRT

Here is one of the new Ava Skirts. I have made three different sizes with this fabric, each with different coloured waist tie & trim. Sizes are 4, 6, 8. I do have a little more of this fabric left, so if you need a smaller size let me know & I'll make it for the shop.(The Story Tree, where they will be for sale soon.)

Ava...

Little Ava wearing the "lets take a walk" Ava Skirt....Yes, I have named this after Ava. This will be available soon at 'The Story Tree', Boonah to purchase.

Here is a close up detail of the tie waist & buttons.
Ava is such a fantastic little model! (Kathie you must be so proud!)

Here is a line up of some more sewing, finally completed!

This is random! I am planning on sewing this top for sale also, just had to start off with one for myself....Lovely look with the gumboots. Jasper & Annabel are having a lovely ride.

FIRST ETSY LISTING!

Finally I have listed one of my hand knitted singlets on etsy! Hooray!!!!!

I must admit it feels good & has given me the 'kick up the pants' I just needed to list some more....
Before I do better go pick Solomon up from school:)

Pollen Label

My little french label, made of goodness by lillalotta.etsy.com

When I first stumbled upon lillalotta I feel in love with all she does....

When I read on her blog she has 5 children & runs her own business selling handmade tapes & other goodness, I simply thought I can give this small business thing a go!

I think I should name her....I feel like I'm becoming quite attatched to her sweet goodness.

Florist Business Card

I am actually a trained florist with many years experience.

Some of the Clothes

Here is me with some clothes which I made. Anne-Marie, from The Story Tree did an interview with me.  It was based around some of my 'first & last' times. I will attempt to put it here on my blog!
