“Oh… hey, remember this dress?” “Yeah! Wasn’t that the dress you finished month’s ago Amy?“ “Kind of. It was the one I rushed through like a demon just to get done only to see it start fraying before I’d even hemmed it.” “Bummer.” “Yeah but all is well now…. cos I unpicked it all and …

Cheers Dad. And a review of V8723

by almondrockon June 26, 2012June 26, 20129 Comments on Cheers Dad. And a review of V8723

by almondrockon June 4, 2012June 4, 2012Leave a Comment on MMM12: Successful? And a load of other waffle

Wooo I survived my first me-made-month. I did pretty well. 10 items worn collectively about 22 times. I used my ink blot tote bag so much and my red polka dress got worn quite a few times! I’m sure that the next time I attempt something similar it will go even better. Now for the …
