Children's Boleros

Boleros for Twins 

Neat boleros one in shaded greens and other in shaded blues 

So the same design but in different colours 

 

Commissioned for a a pair of toddler twins 

The flower closures are adjustable - and move to fit as they grow 

So they should get plenty of wear from them

Teal Missoni Zig-Zag Coat

Front View 

Designed for a customer whom has a narrow back but large bust - lucky girl! 

To be three-quarter in length with cape-sleeves to elbow - which leaves ample room for arm movement and able to wear deep cut sleeves underneath 

Made in pure cotton in a  bright deep teal colour 

Back View

Slim fitting so it flows down the back into the waist and over the hips 

Delivered today and she is delighted :-) 

As am I :-) :-) 

I am so pleased with this design of mine - which is becoming very  popular over the years 

I must remake my stone coloured one which is now over three years old! 

With subtle adjustments in how I make it - it can fit all sizes and shapes and still be flattering

Everyone seems to love how it flows down the back and skims over the hips 

I am now making an alternative version in a bamboo tape yarn - and its looking good - so far! 

Lets hope so!

Oriental Lilac Cat Bag

Needle felted and machine embroidered onto a felted dark brown wool melton 

Fully lined in pale green glazed cotton 

Made into a medium sized bag 

The bag front with the full face of the 

Oriental Lilac cat

A close up of the cat 

The eyes have been felted with green wool and then surface machine embroidered in a shiny green cotton - so the eyes glow.

This has been a special commission by a friend who breeds these cats 

The cat portrait is based on one of her breeding cats 

These bags are available by special order - email me if you want one 

I can do a bag with either your cat or dog on the front in coordinating colours and lining 

I will need a couple of photographs
