Twists Turns and Sculptured Headwear








Almost August already, who's going to a wedding this month?
I love that each wedding is so unique and so is the head wear required. It my job so varied and interesting.
This week it's a three tone [Soft gold  Ivory  Black] with a soft net and beaded trim head piece.
Crin is a woven farbic which lends itself to many soft twists and turns that create wondeful spirals.
I like it for this very reason as sometimes you need very little elce to obtain an amazing shape.
Another simple style is the wired vintage petersham ribbon headband as quite often a wedding guest just wants something simple but shapley.
Then there's the power dressing trilby. This one is a navy and ivory fine straw with a soft grey check trim.
Plus there are a few feathers for the trim. Yes me using feathers !
They are simple biot feathers that I have knotted to add a little twist. Very club tropicana don't you think.
I am hoping to have a break during August myself although nothing arranged as yet, hope everyone has a lovey summer holiday.

Sewing and More Sewing

 
 
 
 
 
Autumn has arrived and the leaves are now putting on a glorious show. It's a lovely time of year I love it when all the trees start to change colour every day it seems. I drive though a woodland area most days and if the sky is blue the trees seem to glow. I collected a few and popped them in a vase on the kitchen table to enjoy the colours inside as well.
I have autumn /winter orders coming in now as well as winter weddings which I personally love working on as it normally requires wool felts and more sculptural pieces.
I also have to get ready for some up coming events, The Art Market in Holmfirth Nov 23rd/24th
East Riddelston Hall Wedding fair Sunday 10th Nov, a local charity fashion show next Friday and my own Christmas fair which is always the first Sat of December as I celebrate another year at the shop.
I did hear on the radio just how many weeks until Christmas it is today, but I tried to ignore it.!
I almost forgot to say do you like my new business cards.?
