Hopefully back more regularly! Ballroom sewing may be permanently paused but bag making is the current focus.

Dress to go with the Linton tweed jacket is all done and gone to its new home now, ready to wear on Saturday at a wedding. She's happy for me to show it on here but I've put the pic in the gallery, so it's not on view to the general public.

That's really nice, classic and classy. Hope you feel proud of yourself, to be able to send a client off looking good.

I love that outfit! The jacket is fab. The simplicity of the dress shows it off, though for myself I'd choose a stronger colour from the tweed. Bet the client is delighted.
