Iv also put some dresses on ebay last night which have 16 people watching them already, lets hope they bid on them too though! iv started the bids at 99p but im hoping there will be a little bidding war for them hehehe!
Also its pattern cutting day...my least favourite part of the dress making process. I'm going to spend the day cutting everything out so I can just wake up tomorrow and sew straight away! I think Im going to do 4 dresses. I have some amazing leopard print satin! so excited! i also have some kitcsh fabrics one with little boys and rockets and one with little kittens! The final fress for today is some gorge electric blue satin!
Also sorting out details for a shoot Iv been kindly asked to be a part of. The shoot is for Ethical Emi <3 which is a stunning jewellery line. Its going to be an Alice in wonderland style shoot and I am so excited to do this!!!
heres a few words from them to describe what they do in better detail......
Emi♥ works closely with fair trade certified manufacturers (BAFTs registered) and factories striving for a greener work force all over the world to bring you our lovely designs. Our suppliers operate a fair trade ethos for their workers and ensure they are treated fairly and paid a fair wage and living wage.
At Emi♥ we love to recycle and we respect the planet and its people. We ensure all our products are from sustainable sources, and the majority of our packaging and the bags we send our items in are recyclable. We don’t use ink when printing on our swing tickets as these produce harmful chemicals. We use a heat transfer which in the long run is more eco friendly.
Our new jewellery range is made by hand using natural stones so you will find slight variations in stone and colour. We just think this helps to make the pieces more unique. Most of our jewellery is NICKEL FREE, so it’s better for your health and for the environment.
We have always been interested in Japanese culture. When we were travelling there we over heard an older lady saying it to her grand-daughter. When we asked her what it meant she told us it was her name. Emi translated into English means "Beautiful" or "Smile". We fell in love with it from there. As cheesy as it sounds, thats what we want the world to do!
And here ae pics of the beautiful pieces they'll be using on the shoot....
I think they're gonna have to keep their eyes on these at the shoot, little Miss Leopard has her eyes on them all! hehe.
Right I have my 50s jukebox hits album on, time to get to work and make some dresses! toodles!
