One cantonier finished, black lace with a lovely vintage brooch ( for the Gothic Lolita) and I have collected the bits and pieces for the pink one. In the meantime I have made a lovely bow headpiece with printed needlecord. My mum had found a lovely shaped bow and I have also covered the actual band in the needlecord. Photos to take tonight and upload to the Etsy shop. I am experimenting to see if I get more looks by uploading one new piece each day.
The trouble when just starting up is that I have too many ideas, not enough time still and also have to watch what I spend on trims etc. Working just three afternoons in a coffee shop doesnt equal what I used to earn as a full time pattern cutter. Still the advantages outway the disadvantages and I am so much happier.
