Think Pink!

I know, I know, you were expecting frocks! It's FROCKTOBER - a terrific initiative for raising money for the Ovarian Cancer Foundation AND a great way to raise awareness about the symptoms of ovarian cancer. I frocked 'til I dropped last year but am giving you all a rest from seeing me, me, me on your screens. I encourage you all to follow a frocker or two though and cheer and donate a-plenty!

All I've got for you for the new month of October is new hair...it's pink....it's big...it's making me feel pretty refreshed.

Winter was hard. I found it hard. But suddenly, in a strange typical Melbourne way, it's a hot 35 degrees today and we've gone from being covered from head to toes in puffer jackets scarves, beanies and boots to getting out in strappy dresses. All very confronting! Skin! Pale skin! Legs!  Hairy legs! Body bits! Wobbly body bits! Yikes-a-rama!

Here's a pensive me thinking, "Is my beehive really high enough or could I make it higher???"

Do you like how I matched my earrings to the lime tree? Sooooo stylish! 

Spring!

Spring is springing before our eyes. And you know what that means? Time to lie around in a hammock? Time to wear a poncho? Well, while you are wondering if it is ever time to wear a poncho, I'll tell you what the first day of Spring means for me - it means it is time to mend some frocks!

This one needs hemming up...I love the pretend patchwork fabric pattern.



This one needs hemming too.

And this lovely Laura Ahsley one needs taking in...

and...yep...hemming...so yes...a bit of Spring stitching ahead of me!

And re-sew-cool can help you "Catch the Spring" with our Fruit tree brooch and bag tags!
