Order Update, Client: Susan - UK



Your patterns are made and cut, and I try the patterns on the muslin. It's a practice fabric. All other adjustments and alterations will be done at this point and after everything fit nicely I will then cut and sew the silk.

I will sew in the muslin sleeves and midriff today.

More updates will be available in few days. :)



Your designer,

Order Update, Client: Sian - UK


Here's your order update Sian. As you can see on top of my working table here, I've cut the front and back part of the skirt. The next step will be to sew the darts, cut the front and back facings, attached the invisible zipper, hang it for a couple of days to let all the stretch out since I cut the fabric on the bias .

The fabric for your second skirt will arrive in the next few days.

More updates will be posted here in the next 3 - 4 days :)

Pin-Up Art


At night right after the kids go to bed and I can't sew anymore, I sometimes do my art work, it helps me relax. And pin-up is my specialty. Here's one that I'm working on right now. Does anyone know who she is? :)

2008 collection - children garment


I managed to make one more children garment as part of my 2008 collection. This is a shirt dress, with flowers and stripes print. I love the fabric, I think it's just so perfect for spring and summer. And if you add tights or pants and long sleeves shirt and a scarf, your little girl is ready for winter.
And the dress is on my way to my model today. I am so looking forward to see how it looks on her.
