Making and Buying

I've been making a few pieces of clothing for myself lately. I bought a few of the Built By Wendy - Built By You patterns on the net.



I've made the top pictured in the center but I need to fiddle with the sleeves a bit as I think I used too heavy a fabric. I'm pretty happy with the rest of it though and it was fairly easy. I'll post a picture of the finished product once I've sorted out the sleeves and given it an iron.

Another one I'm planning to make is this -

I've also been buying things too.
Firstly I've bought a great little shrug from katsai on etsy.com.

(This is her own photo that I've borrowed.)


It's great. I can't wait until the weather cools down here so I can wear it!

I've also finally bought a "Forest Seedlings Tote - in Forest Moss" from little odd forest. It's even lovelier in reality than in the pictures.

Thanks Katsai! Now that I know someone is visiting my blog, I'll have to put in a bit more effort. I'll certainly take photos of me wearing your shrug and my Wendy top.

Thanks for visiting! :)

You might be right! I've added a counter and am looking at the google analytics too. I'll soon know.
