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
