This year I want to do a big shout out to @SarahJulietCost for passing a bunch of work my way this year. She has helped me keep my hand in making despite having such a difficult 18 months and I really appreciate it! #lovecostume2021

English Touring Opera's Ariadne is now available to stream over on their website for free! This means I've managed to capture a few stills showing the lovely rusty flowy outfit I made for them back in April.

Just seen off these lovely pieces I've made up this week. The rust orange number was made out of four deconstructed asos dresses and it is soooo flowy and lovely. Honestly might have to make a pair of those trousers for myself!

Good afternoon from under a pile of pattern paper. It's so good to be working!

Had someone buy a couple of masks from me for the first time in a while - how lovely!

Lost your mask? Fancy something with a bit more colour? I still have a few left in stock and ready to ship out here. 100% cotton and washable at 60 degrees

Achievement unlocked! I have officially managed to become a walking rainbow.

Made yet another Morale Fiber Mandala Jacket with the most beautiful sparkly yarn. It's just 😍🌈💖

[LauraMakes @MakesLaura]

Well it's a good thing I got some proper photos from the back - just spotted a biiiig hole which has been swiftly fixed! That could have been quite a disaster for a weeks work 😅

I am in LOVE with this mandala jacket pattern. So much so that I've boshed one out in the space of four days.

I already have plans to make another in a slightly more cohesive colourway (think sparkly rainbows 😍) which is very exciting.

Not the best photos but also not the easiest thing to make stay on a dinky mannequin. You'll just have to deal with me flouncing about in it instead 😬
