two new Lumi dolls in progress wearing skirts made from an old japanese kimono and from a Madagascan pareo (called lambahoany)

the roles are reversed at home at the moment. I am making a mess and Léon makes tidy lines..

oops, i didn't mean to be away that long from this space but i got caught up by the school holidays, the lovely weather and visits from friends..
the ikea sofa above was found in the street yesterday with a note saying 'please take me' so i did!
next, a pile of fabrics awaiting home projects
and the only sewing i did during the holidays is the boys' curtains, i have had the ikea fabric for more than a year, so relieved i can cross that off my list. making (lined!) curtains is such a daunting task ..
some new Lumi dolls in the making very soon x

hello! it is more than a week since the last shop update, thank you to all of you who came by. i would love to see pics of where and how your little train fantôme creatures live one day..

Above are some recent and not so recent online and charity shop finds.
at the very top, my favourite, a Welsh tapestry vintage bag. Here is a nice post on Welsh wool.
at the bottom a beautiful crochet mat from Séverine of Single crochet

Happy Easter everyone!
