Happy 2015!

Well hasn't this year gotten off to a cracking start! After a hectic Christmas, we headed off camping for a week with the kids down to the lovely NSW South Coast. We spent 7 days swimming, playing, exploring, eating, drinking, surviving with no phone service, navigating the cleaning times at the showers and trying not to get to get sun burnt. We've been back home for a few days and only now do I feel that I can relax and enjoy these last few weeks of school holidays. I've started playing around in my sewing room and it feels great, just like holidays should.

Before I went away, I managed to pull together another Liberty nighty. I adore wearing my previous versions here and here. They are so well suited to the hot muggy nights we are getting.

As with this nighty, I used Burda dress #118 from 06/2010, but this one is made from a range of larger Liberty scraps that have been collected in my scrap bin for years. Most of my smaller scraps were given to my mum, who is an avid quilter. She made this adorable Liberty quilt for my sister's yet-to-be-born, almost-fully cooked, we are waiting! baby girl.

More sewing news will follow shortly - well that's if I can pull myself away from the machine to take photos!

Happy New Year!!
