Slevectomy

Okay, I admit it, I made that word up.

When Laura came to try on her mock-up, we ummed and aahed about the sleeves, but decided to go for it, and see what happened. As it turned out, Laura preferred the dress without the sleeves, so this morning I chopped them off!

Laura's dress - now sleeveless

There, that’s better.

Laura also sent me details for the perfect pendant she’s found to wear with the dress:

She’s had it made by the Etsy seller Jochris12, who does beautiful glass work.

I’m finding it very exciting that more and more people are getting into the spirit of buying and commissioning hand-made and one-off items, rather than simply dashing down to the high street shops. Hopefully this means I’ll be kept nice and busy!
