I made the shrug from red jersey and the little bag from left over fabric.

And this is what I'm making Aidan. The trousers are finished barring the hems, which I'll do in Cyprus. The shirt is the checked fabric and the denim is for the jacket.

Wow! That dress is simply adorable, and very 'Mia'. Loving the fabrics that you've chosen for Aidan too. You obviously don't dither about when sewing like I do!

No, I'm not putting my 'to do' list here, that would be far to organised, PLUS I would have to keep it up to date  Laughing

aww how lovely, and yes, so quickly too. The dress is adorable and I love the little petticoat showing at the bottom, how cute. Aidans fabrics look very masculine too.

well done

Can't believe how much you've done already, Lorraine! The dress is gorgeous, and the trousers look so professional. It would take me weeks just to get back into dressmaking if I tried.

That dress is so pretty, Mia will look smashing in it.
Chinos stitching so neat and even, you are making a great job of these outfits.

I was watching the Christmas Stitching Bee last night and some of the machine stitching looked well dodgy compared to yours!
