Cheating bag
This is a present for one of my daughter's friends! However, I've cheated - as the bag was bought in the sale (got an application of Little Red Riding Hood on the other side). But I cut up the sides of the bag so I could sew on Amy-Ella's name - so make it a bit more personal! Hope she likes it.

Redesign: Jumper to dress!
I've got several old wolly jumpers I've saved - hoping one day I will be able to use them for something.. Yesterday I suddenly had some free time so turned two jumpers into a dress! The black jumper is from Marks & Spencer, the grey one is my husbands old jumper from Next. Both 100% wool.
I cut off the arms from the grey jumper, turned it upside down and sewed it onto the end of the black jumper which I had cut shorter. I also had a thin wool cardigan (not on the before photo) which I trimmed off about 10 cm and sewed this onto the bottom of the grey jumper. I sewed on a nice flower ribbon from Norway on the front. A really warm dress for the winter!
