Oh do find you blog in dribs & drabs sometimes??
Thats me - I tend to blog regularly then stop all together, until I feel terribly slack & start over again.
I don't have much of an excuse - we have been away, but that only took about a week.
I have being sewing quite a lot & teaching a friend to sew too. Unfortunately I forget to photograph our finished products before she takes them home. I am really enjoying it though - not only the good company, but sharing a passion with someone who is so eager to learn & who understands my love of fabric. She agrees that she could spend a whole afternoon just looking & touching lovely fabric. Ahh a girl after my own heart there!
These however are a few items I have finished recently.
The 2 skirts are based around a pattern from a Japanese sewing book my lovley sister in law Noriko brought back from Japan for me. The pattern is quite simple, but oh so pretty - I will certainly make more of these.
The 3 bags are ones I just whipped up because I was in the mood. The blue one I am certainly keeping - it was made from a vintage tablecloth which I loved - I have lined it with some vintage cotton sheet fabric. The other 2 are made from vintage fabrics also.

Beautiful skirts. Must be nice to sit and sew with an enthusiastic friend. :)
Those skirts are soooo sweet. And I'd steal your new spiffy blue bag if I lived closer to you and had your address (I think you are safe lol)
Gorgeous - I just love those skirts! I also find I blog, blog, blog, then dissapear - how do people post daily???
All your things are so lovely! No wonder you want to keep the blue bag, it is gorgeous! How lovely to be teaching a friend to sew...such fun :)
Love looking at your beautiful sewing...sew inspiring!!! I'm new to blogging, so I'm going at it with total passion...and...I blog with a friend...which helps when inspiration fails me.
:-) Love your blog...I sort of landed here accidentally, but it's ended up being a rather happy accident if you ask me!
Such cute projects! Do I recognize the pattern for your 3rd bag? (I think so, but can't I remember from where. I really like it!)
lovely bags.
I like it.
