We Heart Clothkits

I'm so relieved.  After a week of thinking my camera was kaput, I finally figured out how to restore the settings and its all fine.  No more yellow, overexposed pics.  Note to self: read the manual and get to know my camera better. 

 Today I am loving these new dungarees, or 'overalls' as they say in these parts, which I made for Beth from a kit from Clothkits, complete with VW camper van and London taxi!  I've made a few things from Clothkits but these are my fave so far.  In the pipeline is a padded 'farm jacket' which is reprinted from the original 70's pattern, which I'm going to try to get finished for Boo's birthday.

This morning we headed downtown to Dressew, a crazy sewing shop which is just so exciting to look around.  I'd have been in there hours if I hadn't have had Boo with me, though to give the girl credit, she is a haberdashery-lover after my own heart.

Boo always loves the jaunt across the sea on the Seabus.

All a bit grey today but still beautiful.
