I'd love to be able to wear a floaty skirt of poppy fabric but DH would think I'd finally lost my marbles and it would get chewed by lambs anyway and probably get hooked up on some barb too.  :). I fear its not to be.

My goats would have had a nibble if I wore anything too voluminous, they used to chew the back pocket of my jeans when I wasn't looking  0_0  not that I wore baggy jeans.

Pretty! I'm not one for wearing bright fabric, but I love to see it on someone else.

@Silver Rose So basically you are telling us that your goats used to 'bite your bum!'  :laughing:

Brenda I immediately thought of your Poppy skirt/dress ... or am I thinking of the wrong person ???

I have some poppy fabric too waiting to be made into a fitted sheet to replace the one I made yeeeeaaaarrs ago thats fallen to bits, on account of making it just a lil too tight.

I should really get on with that as I love the Duvet set it belongs too (well I made the sheet from two kiddies sheets as the set didnt have one) the problem is, as ever, not enough space to measure and cut out such large pieces :rolleyes:

 No no no, that won't suit you at all. Parcel it up and send it to me immediately for safe disposal to a worthy cause. :angel:

I love it! (I don’t do subtle.) I think it would make a fine summer skirt.
