Today my little top started life a skirt! A broken zip and waist that was far too small meant refashion time, and I thought it had a little "hello sailor" about it.
A really heavy cotton, almost made the sewing machine needle stick I wondered if it had been treated with something to make it do this?
No Fancy trims today, but this has been the first time I have used stripes and I think I did ok with matching them up.
oh how lucky my best shoes match!!
Then off for a cycle ride. My journals of a novice cyclist have been somewhat lacking, this being only the third ride of the year. Not exactly what I had planned to keep fit and reduce the use of the car.
It is so much easier to look stylish on a bike it the warm weather.
Every good bike ride will have a pub stop and this was no exception, we had two!! MrPB enjoyed lots of cider. I think this is rather a nice shot for the celebrating of hands project.
This was our view for most of the journey home, up hill!
For some all that hard work peddling was too much.
Brilliant top!!! But I am more jealous of your little one....
