Clutch Purse...


This is my first clutch purse, i had no money to buy a new one for my Work Christmas Doo, but alot of scrap material, so this is what i came up with, its made from black velvet with a shimmery purple ribbon on the flap and a blue sparkly butterfly broach in the middle, the linen inside is gold.
Here i am on the night!!

A Tudor Christmas.





YAAAYY!!! Its that time of year again!!! HOORAH!!! I love being skint, ........on a lighter note though, I made a Christmas dress to celebrate this "I need some bloody money!" season..............
So the majority of this dress was made from already used material. She's going to sit by my TV all christmas and watch Repeats of 'The Grinch' with me. :)

Lady in a silk dress.






This dress was made by combining some pattern pieces from other dresses with the original tudor pattern. I also altered the the original tudor skirt so it does not have the split down the middle.
I found this material when i went on a spontaneous material shopping spree and found loads of shimmering colour changing fabrics. This dress has now become one of my favourites.

My very own GEORGIAN CORSET!!!!






Yaaayyy!!! Finally, ever sinse i was little i always wanted to try on one of these corsets, i just love the shape, and look at my BOOBS, it felt great wearing one, even if it was constricting abit.
Anyways, i found a pattern for one of these corsets, didnt take up much fabric and interfacing like most clothes but...it took 12 METRES OF BONING!!

After i finished it i tried it on and continued to do the housework in it, it was awesome!! my boyfriend ryan appreciated it alot too ;D

A lady in red!

Another tudor dress, made from the original pattern, this one had alot more extensive beading in it, so it gave it that elizabethan look to it.
