a phone call...
please mummy...black...short cropped, but not too cropped...long sleeve....round neck...
no closures....interesting lining....( we have just looked at a sensational leather one!!)
happy to oblige, but i cant picture what is in your mind...
sketched... scanned...emailed....
what did we do before such technology...
i drafted, and stitched, now it needs a visit to the dry-cleaners for a good press, then off to boarding school it goes...
the fabric is 50%wool 50%poly mix, and i wish i had bought better quality...
with the closest fabric store 80 kms away and that not being very good, it means i usually have to compromise my choice...
(note to self to try shopping online for fabric...)
the lining is 100% cotton voile.... it sits beautifully...
hope it fits....
this might get re-made in better fabric...just not leather...

[i went to boarding school, too. and no email then!]
You amaze me. I hope it is appreciated.
Gorgeous!! Is it a blessing or a curse that your kids think you can (and you can) make ANYTHING they dream up?
So how did it go over?? I am impressed, lol! I can barely make clothes that pass approval when she is right THERE, much less sight unseen! :p
