I haven't posted anything for a while, so I thought it was about time I showed you what I've been up to!
I'm working on some cravats for my sister's wedding, although I don't have any photographs of those yet. I need a stylistic opinion from my sister before I can complete them. I have to say that they are quite possibly the fiddliest thing I have ever made, and I'm having to do them in stages so that they don't make me cross-eyed and drive me crazy. Still, I'm seeing my sister in a week's time, so as soon as she's seen how they'll fit together I can finish them off.
You may have gathered from the title of the post that I have a new job! As of Tuesday I'm going to be working with my partner, as a part-time web content manager. I'll still be working at the bookshop until my notice period is up, so I'm just about to embark on a very busy four weeks! If you don't hear from me, please don't panic. I'll be checking my journal and my email as often as I can, and I'll be able to catch up with everything properly at the beginning of September.

I have a bet with Paul that nobody will even notice that it has Yoda all over it until at least lunchtime. He thinks
It's made from cotton flannel and fully lined, so it's not really a summer skirt. I'll be working in an air-conditioned office though, so I'm sure it'll be okay.
