I have dragged out my Broderie Anglaise to have a play with today. I used quite a bit of this to make baby capsule covers and pram sets for my babies and also for my neices when they were babies. So rather than leave it for the moths, I thought I might make use of it with my crafts.
Not sure how this little design will look stitched...I have just drawn this directly onto a scrap piece of fabric. Sometimes I get a better perspective of things when I can see them in a photos!I have also purchased from ebay the prettiest vintage dress...just love the colours in the flowers. The neckline crosses over at the front and back with satin ribbon. I am very happy with my dress, now I just have to wait for some warmer weather so I can wear it!
Have a great weekend!
