Colour Inspiration for April & May - Road Cone Orange!

This new kit is inspired (slightly tongue in cheek) by all the bright orange road-cones I see on my short, rural commute to the shop each day!.  This kit is bold and fun! With all the delicious fabrics in this kit you'll be able to make a stand out lingerie set!  A beige tulle is embroidered with bold orange, purple and green flowers, matching the plain bright orange bra tulle. To accompany is a navy stretch mesh and pink powernet.  A selection of fun elastics includes a stripy net band elastic and a narrow fold over elastic. I can see this kit...

Colour Inspiration for October & November - Daffodil

These bright, cheery colours have inspired the colour inspiration for the Limited Edition Kit of October and November.   A kit inspired by the exuberant abundance of spring, in particular those golden yellow daffodils. The main fabric is a white embroidered tulle featuring yellow flowers with accents of green and cerise pink. I've paired it with our new spring green elastics...

I love camping but I'm not brave enough to venture out and sleep rough with these current night-time temps! Instead I've stayed indoors and filled a Pinterest board with 'vanlife' camping inspiration.

Colour Inspiration - February & March - Metallic Goodness!

The kit for February/March is a gorgeous selection of metallic goodies! The 'precious metals' of this month's colour scheme along with February's Valentines Day (or Galentines Day) inspired me to create an indulgent kit that you can treat yourself with.     The main fabric is black and golden beige ombre, embroidered tulle with gold and silver thread. Simply stunning!! I've paired it with an array of metallic elastics including a narrow, golden peach elastic perfect for strappy detailing.  Speaking of strappy details, this kit comes with an assortment of rings and sliders, including a heart slider so you can...
