Jodie Anne and I are travelling to Saskatoon this Easter long weekend to attend the wedding of an old BFA school-mate from our university days. I am excited to go away (!) to a wedding(!!) of a great old friend (!!!). The bridal couple, both being artists, requested hand-made gifts for wedding presents. So we decided to make coordinating hers and hers handbags. Here's how they're looking so far.
I've also been sewing a couple of things for spring. Inspired by NotaMermaid's recent post on Sew Retro, I am attempting a dirndl skirt in green plaid seersucker. I'm not sure yet how this is going to work out. Maybe it's the plaid or maybe it's the seersucker, but it somehow seems apron-y. I think I'll have to wait until it's finished to really decide. I've also started this vintage inspired Vogue jacket in grass green linen. The fabric is really beautiful and almost negates all the surprise snow we got today.
My work in the studio went really well on Saturday too, so I'll try to post pictures of my progress in there as well.

I wouldn't mind seeing you in that Vogue dress underneath the jacket... Meow!
That's on it's way MC, so hold your horses!
I'm planning on making it in some fabric that has big green/lime green roses on it. It' so strange that it's beautiful.
When that's all done maybe you'll have to take me out on the town!
