    This is a dress I made last summer. The pattern came free with a magazine. Despite some misgivings I decided to have a go at making it. However, I should have heeded the warning on the packet. “Easy” is usually a synonym for “completely shapeless and won’t fit….

Friday weirdness fix 🤪😂 Things have been a Friday weirdness fix 🤪😂

Things have been a bit quiet recently because I have been finishing off another huge unit for my textiles degree.

As I could have predicted, I got hideously behind and needed about 2 months when I only had a week!

Anyway, I managed to pull it out of the bag and got enough done and sorted out to hand in, and I only had a couple of minor meltdowns 👍

I went for two lovely walks today round my snowy village 💖❄️

Being out in nature always feels precious. It does Being out in nature always feels precious. It doesn't matter very much what time of year it is, or what the weather is doing.

Today I wanted to get outside while it was still light. Yesterday it was after 3pm and it was already gloomy!

Today is lovely and bright, even though everywhere is damp and muddy after all the rain.
