Lots & lots of little Angel gowns.


A variety of styles this time, using all the buttons, lace motifs & pearls from the original gown.
 

31 gowns from one large wedding gown! Amazing




The lace overlay works well & the join in the original gown doesn't look out of place here.

Machine Embroidered Bag "In the Hoop" design


This was so much fun to make.  With help from friends I managed quite well.  All the panels & construction were done in the embroidery hoop of the machine.  No hand work at all!  Brilliant.

"Angel" gowns everywhere!

 What a joy to sew for all "Angel" babies... These were all made from the one wedding gown & grooms vest. By adding some scraps of colour there were even more gowns.. Some of the Mums love the splash of bright colours, others all white so we cater to all likes...

Red Red Rose from AS&E Magazine.

Such a delight to make... "Red Red Rose" is from the AS & E Magazine. Made of Tana Liberty floral, it is a fine as a whisper to work with, even nails can pull a thread so care has to be taken.  It is smocked with dark green & red DMC thread with a cream contrast. The sleeves & collar are handmade red grub roses with dark green hearts.  The red is striking... my pic came out sideways, sorry...lol
