Blind Hems & Invisible Zips

someone asked me yesterday what I was going to be doing today,
my reply,
"blind hems & invisible zips".

Is it just me or do they sound good together, like they belong to each other, as if one should naturally follow the other.
The more blogging I do the more I notice words and the combinations of.
Not sure if my words make much sense to others, doesn't matter much, as I think my mum and my sister are the only ones that read my blog and they think I'm nuts anyway!

Hi Mum x

Hi Mel x

Now I think about it, 'nuts' really is relative...
or
is it a relative!

No-Pattern Waterfall Skirt

...this takes refashioning to a whole new level...all I needed was a length of Op-shop sourced fabric (in my favourite colour!), a re-used invisible zip (I had filed), a little imagination (free-hand machine embroidery) and a few hours (I had up my sleeve)!

This was my Christmas Day Skirt. There's a photo on 'Re-invented Garments' of Veronica in the one she made during the last lot of workshops. Personally I love no-pattern sewing as I find it sooooo very liberating however I do realise the importance of commercial patterns in others sewing and this is why I am going to offer 'Playing with Patterns' during 1st Term at The George.

We're away as of tomorrow for 8days of sun, sand, surf & sleeping in which time I will recharge and be back ready for whatever awaits!
