Yarnspider: Dresses and Margaret Beaufort.
http://yarnspider.blogspot.com/2015/07/dresses-and-margaret-beaufort.html
Observations and comments on fibre, yarn, knitting and other less important subjects. Wednesday, 29 July 2015. Dresses and Margaret Beaufort. To begin, is an odd kimono/beach thingy that my Mother in Law was kind enough to give me. Now whilst I am the first to admit that I am of generous proportions, the idea of wearing tent didn't really appeal. So I popped it on Mavis and had a think. Several weeks later my cogitations came to fruition and went like this. A flattering summer dress. 29 July 2015 at 20:51.

Vintage KittyKat: A pyschedelic shopper fit for the 70s and THAT doll swap!
http://vintagekittykat.blogspot.com/2008/08/pyschedelic-shopper-fit-for-70s-and.html
Sunday, 10 August 2008. A pyschedelic shopper fit for the 70s and THAT doll swap! In between working overtime and prepping fabric for my skirt, I have been indulging in a little light crocheting, this lime green and lurid pink beauty was knocked up during a few commutes into work and a couple of evenings slobbing in front of the telly. The inspiration for the colours came from browsing the Purplelinda. Love the bag, although the colours are not for me! The doll is great too. 10 August 2008 at 13:21.

Vintage KittyKat: August 2008
http://vintagekittykat.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, 28 August 2008. How to buy yourself a couple of hours peace and tranquility. It is (as some of you will know) nearing the end of the long, lazy summer holidays, I must admit I have worked whilst dh has done the lions share of ferrying to zoos and whatnot and when I've been here, we've mostly crafted together (with dd of course, the TEEN mostly does his own thing). Sunday, 10 August 2008. A pyschedelic shopper fit for the 70s and THAT doll swap! Crafting diva of the highlands, who owns the right...

Vintage KittyKat: Bags and flowers.
http://vintagekittykat.blogspot.com/2008/08/bags-and-flowers.html
Saturday, 2 August 2008. Well now I've dispatched my doll swap (only 6 months late! I can now throw myself into a bit of dressmaking. As the old adage goes, have cash, will shop, so I have! First stop was Betsy Ross. To buy the beautiful charmed dress pattern and the raglan top. I bought the A line skirt pattern about a year ago and made a charming skirt out of a pair of my nans old curtains but, as I tried trimming the hem with a pair of 8" shears, I managed to snip a hole in it! 10 August 2008 at 08:41.

Vintage KittyKat: September 2008
http://vintagekittykat.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, 11 September 2008. I like your top'. 'Thanks, I made it myself'. Have, as usual been doing lots of everything and getting nothing finished.well almost nothing. I have managed to finish my top, which I admit, I'm right chuffed with and I wore it on the school run. It looks, am pleased to report, outrageously pretty with a pair of jeans and has left me feeling a bit smug that it cost me less than two quid to make. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Vintage KittyKat: April 2008
http://vintagekittykat.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 29 April 2008. A nice lining (in honour of Chrissnow). Onto one of my neglected UFOs, I have a vintage pattern fetish, which I may have mentioned before and which is indulged quite frequently, yes I am that annoying woman taking up all the counter space with the pattern book in your local age concern! Mind you, looking at these photos it looks like I am going through a deeply pink phase, must root out that teal wool to counteract the overwhelming girliness. Monday, 28 April 2008.

Vintage KittyKat: A PARCEL from America and a pattern of this week.
http://vintagekittykat.blogspot.com/2008/07/parcel-from-america-and-pattern-of-this.html
Sunday, 20 July 2008. A PARCEL from America and a pattern of this week. Well I got a parcel from my swap parcel in America and here is what she sent me (the cat doll), how gorgeous is that! It's fine for lighter shopping but I fear 4 pints of milk may end in carnage! By the time this photo was taken it had been used for several weeks and I can roll it up and just stick it in my (not exceptionally big) handbag. Soothing therapy and usefulness all rolled up in one little package, bliss. Glad you liked the ...
