The shock of Full time work!

Hi All,

Its been a long long time since i last posted! I have had to face the shock of full time work, my life now consists of eating, sleeping working and the odd bit of shopping thrown in there!

So thats meant less time making so this week i have enjoyed getting back on the machine on my days off and made a new dress from 3 Primark scarves! Yes thats 3 scarves take a look and see what you think....

to this.....

Quite pleased as apart from making leggings its the first dress iv made from Jersey fabric! 

Some other bits and bobs i have managed to make when Ive had a spare 5 minutes....
