When your feeling lousy wiped out with illness, there is nothing better than a magic box from Busy Bee Fabrics UK
These are destined to be pieces for my brother and SIL, however the apprentice disagrees lol

It's not often I show photos of my alterations, as a, I often forget, and b, I'm never sure if it's an important outfit people don't want shared.
But the lovely Jess has said I can share this picture of her wearing the beautiful dress. I evened out the hem and shortened the straps so it sat in the right place as although she has the figure of a supermodel (well competitive dancer) she is a member of my shorty girlies club.
Doesn't she look amazing, and thank you for sharing Jess ❤️

Typical 😵‍💫🙄😁

This is a different post to my normal, but I feel that it is important.
May is EDS awareness month, and as a diagnosed sufferer of hEDS, I thought I would use this chance to share a little about my condition.
Most of the time I can carry on as normal, but every so often I have a 'flare up' of my condition, which means even daily tasks are difficult.
If I take a while to complete a job for you, this is normally why, unfortunately.
If it's not my health then it's the 4yr old apprentice 😜
I'm not looking for sympathy, just sharing information 🙂

I'm still here plodding on with alterations and custom commissions, sorry I've been a bit quiet and slow on messages, my health plays up, then FB hides my messages, then the apprentice is on Easter holidays and demanding all the attention, but hey we keep going. I'll show some of my recent makes next post 🙂

Catching up on alterations this week after recovering from flu.
This piece was a new challenge for me, turning the collars for a lovely man who didn't want to get rid of perfectly good shirts. Love this! Hope he is happy when he collects 🙂
