Blog Lovin and a little more lovin

Is this thing on?


I don't use Google reader, I just use my blogger reading list..(hope that's not disappearing too?) but I've heard from pretty much every blog I read that's it is becoming non-existent... hence the bloglovin link, I'm a sheep :)

But also thought I'd share with you some other lovin I received this week, In the form of my husbands fairy god sister..
she sent me a cute little package of things she thought I might like, including the following..
Vintage buttons and thread, some baked goods, a jumpsuit pattern, cute little hair pieces and a necklace, a little sketch pad for drawings on the go ;) and some lace vintage collars!


 
Quite a stash right:)
I need help, how do you think I should the collars? Any pattern suggestions? Tips etc? :)

  2. Cute little things.

    About the lace collars, why don't you use them to customize T-shirts?

  3. Love your blog! Thanks for stopping by mine :)

    I am in love with those collars - do you follow Coletterie? These would be perfect embellishments for their Laurel Pattern Contest!

  5. I'd go for a lovely simple dress for the lace. Either just applique it or make it a yoke.
    In response to your question on my blog which has randomly disappeared. I would say Archer is Intermediate to advanced. I'm going to write a tips post on sewing Archer but I think if you followed the instructions and sewalong you would manage. But I would suggest doing a muslin first so you can practise the techniques. Hope this helps! x
