betty cox: July 2011
http://bettycox.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, 23 July 2011. Behind the scenes tailoring. Tuesday, 19 July 2011. Look at these beautiful scraps from an old patchwork quilt. The creases and wear, the mottled colours and delicate prints and the history behind them; someone carefully hand stitching it all into place. I'd love to get in the dye lab and reproduce these quirky prints, watch this space, if I can get my hands on these gems, SS12 might be floaty tea dresses and bloomers in these prints! These pieces were found at Ironing Board Studio.

betty cox: The sock dream
http://bettycox.blogspot.com/2013/10/the-sock-dream.html
Thursday, 31 October 2013. Handmade socks. As of around August this year, I have thought of little else.
