I hope you are able to include this dress design in one of your books at some stage (although you may need to pay her royalties).<br />I fully understand designing around shoes. My wedding outfit was selected because of how it matched a pair of shoes I had purchased at least 18 months before I even started dating my now husband (together now 17 years). I remember seeing them -they came in 3 colourways at the time, and I have all 3 pair still - and knew instantly that if I were to ever marry, the neutral coloured pair with the patent toe and heal were the shoes I would wear, and I did. Friends and family thought it strange, but I never did. I believe it is easier to find/design/make clothes to match favourite shoes than the other way around.

Back again. We have our Christmas on Box...Hi Nikki<br />Back again. We have our Christmas on Boxing Day because our family is usually scattered with their partners to just about all corners of the state on Christmas!<br />One of the gifts each family got was a pre-printed babushka softie. It was a family affair : my seven year old grand daughter sewed them on her sewing machine, her father (my son) did the stuffing (I have to teach him about stuffing techniques as this won't be the last, I'm sure) and my daughter-in-law hand stitched to close and attached the home made label. Just so cute!<br />What is it with the confidence of the young? They just don't seem to have any fear about 'having a go' at anything. I suppose it is upbringing. We weren't allowed near anything in case of breakages, accidental self harm or burning the house down. Subsequently I had a fantastic learning curve when I left home!<br />Best wishes to you and yours.<br />CheersRobyn of Ozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11830917656529638295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1100500218153792090.post-45754732540056411172012-12-27T14:55:29.518+11:002012-12-27T14:55:29.518+11:00Super awesome Mummy daughter action!Super awesome Mummy daughter action!Ferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00868596428499218246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1100500218153792090.post-7590703944964344362012-12-25T23:22:34.364+11:002012-12-25T23:22:34.364+11:00she terrifies me, she really does. that much tale...she terrifies me, she really does. that much talent at that young an age - she's going to take over the world!<br /><br />Credit to you!!<br /><br />Wishing you strength and the best of everything in this season.A Peppermint Penguinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05496009149874919428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1100500218153792090.post-6841975063397450232012-12-25T22:53:44.479+11:002012-12-25T22:53:44.479+11:00Happy Christmas to you both, and best wishes for a...Happy Christmas to you both, and best wishes for a year filled with creativity ahead!Vireyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16464838238295059335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1100500218153792090.post-81267412618195244262012-12-25T20:11:16.165+11:002012-12-25T20:11:16.165+11:00Love it all!

So far she's made some clothes and a small quilt that she is so proud of. Once the spark is there, I doubt anything can take it away.<br />Love the square bear and the owl. How cute. Her Wednesday Addams dress is gorgeous.<br />Merry Christmas to you both.Robyn of Ozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11830917656529638295noreply@blogger.com
