Pink velvet ribbon

One of the reasons for starting this blog was to plot my progress as I learn to sew. This was my first attempt at a zip about a year ago! I was inspired by Amy Karol's Bend the Rules, and used what is possibly my fave Heather Bailey freshcut print. In fact, that reminds me, I should get some more! I wish that pesky pound would rally against the dollar so I can go back to buying shed loads of stuff from the states!


I finished it with a pink velvet ribbon bow (a bit wonky I know!). I have an unhealthy obsession with pink velvet ribbon. I try and add it to all my sewing projects . I even used it to make Violet's Angel doll hair. I liked the effect it gives, a kinda Scartlett O'Hara 'up do'.
