Frome Artisan Market

Frome had some delights this weekend. The market is a glorious mixture of around 50 stalls selling vintage and retro treasures, local food and plants and a wide range of local designer made producst. It is held during the summer months from April to September 9:30am till 2pm with a Christmas special in December. You will always find the market on the first Sunday of the month from 10 am until 2pm.

I just adore having a rummage and trawling through markets to see what I can find. I bought some beautiful French fabric for £3 and a vintage blouse pattern for £1, bargain. I will be looking out for the next 'Vintage Bazaar' held at The Cheese and Grain in Frome. I missed the 30th June Bazaar but will be at the Christmas one on the 15th December.

I always pop into Millie Moon when I am in Frome. It's a beautiful Haberdashery boutique and sewing school-what more could you ask for.

Quintessentially English

We visited the English countryside at the weekend and came to a village 3 miles from the town of Chippenham-'Lacock', a beautiful chocolate box village steeped in history. Most of the surviving houses are 18th-century or earlier in construction. There is a 14th-century tithe barn, a medieval church, and an inn dating from the 15th century[citation needed] and an 18th-century lock-up.

The village has been used as a film and television set, notably for the 1995 BBC production of Pride and Prejudice, the 2007 BBC production of Cranford. It has also made brief appearances in the Harry Potter films Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. There was an array of vintage style shops, a traditional Bakery, the town was most certainly in bloom-Beautiful. Here is what I saw:

Delicious

Looking around at what looks delicious to me:

My work in 3D! Model shots...

Here is some images of what I have been working on. It was a bit of a recycling project, using up old fabrics and really just practicing my sewing skills. I hope to eventually make a collection that screams 'ME', one day! At the moment got new baby on the horizon for a little New Year present, I will be up to my neck in nappies so perhaps the sewing can wait. I have some more outfits that need photographed, I will try and post soon. Oh and got some amazing fabric I need to use up, I may have to take some pics to show you. X

Tres Interesting...

I Love Pammy!!

Just a few wonderful images for today. Enjoy!
