Still under wraps...

I'm working on a new collection for August inspired by my antique patterns from the 1920's....

Still very hush - hush....

Under wraps.....

Actually wrapped in tissue paper, hand dyed ribbon,vintage lace, antique calling card and vintage

silk millinery roses!

I think I love making the packages pretty more than I like sewing the garments!

Shared on Shabby Art Blog,  My Romantic homes and The Feathered Nest Friday link parties!
Pink Saturday at How Sweet the Sound blog.

I swear...by I-Dye!

Don't you just love creative days that turn out fabulous?

I've always used Dylon cold water dye with great results.

So of course I had to try the new I-Dye for polyester.

I loved the color so much (violet) that I just kept putting garments and fabrics
in the pot and this is what came out!

A pair of my cream lace leggings....it was difficult to capture the vividness of this color!

These are poly or nylon, I can't believe how well they took the dye. Amazing.

I grabbed a cream sweater that I've had for a year and never worn.....and I will be wearing this tonight!

Some vintage cream satin....turned out a gorgeous soft tie dyed purple (ish) color.

Did someone say Roses???

And last but not least, a silk cashmere shawl that I've cut into skinny scarves and I'm going to embellish with sequins and beads......

And I'll be keeping ALL these for MY closet!

  So this will count as my Brenda's Closet Thursday edition too!

Obviously I don't wear a lot of boring colors....♥

Romantic Ruffled Lace Leggings or Tights in NEW Colors

From TheWiltedMagnolia

This is such a versatile garment!

Leggings or tights are made from 4 way stretch lace with a soft ruffle at the bottom. Great for layering in winter or summer, I usually wear these under dresses with a jacket and boots.
Under a romantic wedding dress or a tunic, as pj's or a sexy undergarment.
