New project...for me!!

I have decided that I am actually going to make something for myself.

There are some gorgeous Amy Butler patterns around so I have decided to try this one.  Really wanted to have an Amy Butler fabric too but it would have cost too much so I have got this blue floral fabric instead off eBay for a bargain £2.99 per metre.

My mum is a professional dressmaker and sewing teacher, but she is always too busy to make anything for me.  She has taught me well, but find I haven't got the patience for these bigger projects.  I always want things done asap.  I will keep you all posted on how I am getting on!!
