Winter wonders after a hectic Summer!

Right so I know it has been too long since my last post... Womad was wonderful, as always! Almost sold out of my hooded waistcoats and my plan is to focus on using the fleece to create a variety of waistcoat and jacket styles for next summers festie season.
I am even considering testing out a few mens waistcoats, as I made my first ever mens pattern to make Sam a waistcoat this summer and it went down well! Watch this space for some Mens sizs coming soon hopefully!
I met a lovely girl called Shanti this summer and she is starting her own stall selling homemade hoops and a few clothing things... she has asked me to make a few things for some christmas markets this winter, so I am currently working on a jacket design using the hooded waistcoat as a base and adding sleeves. If successful You will see this design out and about next summer! I am also working on a shorter frilled edge waistcoat which is great as it takes much less fabric to make and I am getting to use some of my scraps up! As always it is a rush to make all this... I have until next friday November 11th to make 8 jackets and at least 6 waistcoats, as well as hopefully some fingerless gloves out of the scraps!
Hopefully it won't be as long until my next post... busy as always!
