I could not resist this fabulous cotton from a market stall in Leeds . Especially as I found I had two pairs of red Summer trousers???!!!??? What was I thinking?
I love the bow blouse as it is such a great fit and can be dressed up or down for work or weekends!
Can’t wait to get sewing it………..
Fabric: 1.5metres at £4.50 per metre (45incheswide)

It needs a button……..anyone seen any flamingo buttons??

I’ve said it before… I LOVE Leeds market! That fabric is so great I want to go and get some right now. No secret flamingo button source, though, I’m afraid!

Yes, I just could not choose! I also got some navy cotton with white stamps on I think, just the outline. That sounds weird doesn’t it! But it is very nice! Am going to make a nice summer dress. That was £4.50 a metre too. They had some gorgeous lace too….could be on my list for next visit! I used to go to the stall with my Grandma up til I was about 16…. Not been for 30 years and went straight to it! Haha fabric shop locations embedded in my brain! Lol

I am getting boring tho……..I think this will be the 5th!!! All different though, it’s all about the fabric isn’t it! It is a good wardrobe staple and I love sewing it… Not too easy but not too challenging either!
