Really minor good news
« on: 2 Aug 2011 09:44 »
I'm just so excited- I ordered a dressmakers mannequin so I can finally reduce (and increase!) clothes I buy that don't fit me! First job is a dress I bought that was the right length and hip size, but was made for someone with no boobs so I couldn't zip up the back. I'm going to put some stripy fabric in and then reinsert the zip. I'm a bit scared but then it's not like I can wear it anyway. I'm also gonig to change the neckline so it's less restrictive. Yippee!

It's part of a bigger plan for reinventing PennyDog too TBH- I'm taking charity shop and donated clothes and upcycling them into new garments, alongside a smaller selection of jewellery and possibly some homewares and stuff. I was supposed to be launching around now but it's taking a lot longer than I thought!

Yay!  It is exciting!

I love mine, even if at the moment all she does is sit in the corner.
