I finally finished this lace top and skirt quite recently. I always like to have a sewing project on the go during the holidays. This one was relatively easy, I just used a simple top and skirt pattern from textile traders. The top was a bit more difficult than the skirt though as everything has to be sewn twice because of the lining. I had a fair bit of assistance from my mum, shes an excellent sewer.
The floral garland is also homemade. This is my first attempt at making them, if theres a next time i'd like to add more flowers.
My birthday is on Thursday and I am so excited. Then on the weekend I'll be hosting a garden tea party in celebration with my closest friends.
oh! oh! this is all so pretty. xx
