I haven’t posted for the past few weeks but I was waiting for a sunny day to take pictures.

I finally found one, as well as an amazing top model to pose for me…

So, first, what’s best than an Obi belt to emphasize our wasp waist?

 And to give your body an amazing shape…

I tell you, this belt his magic!

Pattern : Home made (Tutorial Here) – Fabric: Black and grey coton from Spotlight

 And to go with the beld, I sewed a matching top.

I really like the shape given by the pattern (initially, a dress, but I shortered it), especially the wide sleeves.

I will definitely use the pattern again, for a dress or a jacket.

Pattern : Vogue Easy – Fabric: Black and grey coton from Spotlight

You may not remember, but we swapt with Carole, a gorgeous bag and its matching headband v.s an outfit for his coming little baby boy.

Check first what I received… isn’t it gorgeous??

Carole received her package, so I can now show you what I have made for her:

Carole loves sarouels… 

So I made one for his little baby, with a matching kimono-inspired top:

Sarouel : Pattern Calixe from Citronille size 6 months, cream-colored linen,  Pebeo Secalor paint color brown moire, and star-shaped buttons all from Spotlight

Kimono: Pattern P’tites Mimines (Tutorial in English here),  Brown linen , Cotton fabric and star-shaped buttons all from Spotlight.

And speaking about “Les P’tites Mimines”, if you want to take part of the game she currently organized on her blog, clik on the picture bellow:   

Good luck me everybody!!

She  received my postage which travelled all the way down from New Zealand to France…

So it is not a secret anymore, and I can now show you what I have made for MavaCre.

The Sweet bag

Fabric necklace

I choose a chocker necklace model as she doesn’t like too long necklace.

Apparently, she liked it, I am sooooo happy!

And a big THANKSto Magalie from “Les doigts dans la Confiture“ who organised this lovely Swap
