Laura Ashley



In our town we have a hospice which also has some shops...a charity shop, a gift shop and a 'pre-loved' furniture and fabric warehouse. I bought 4 metres of this new Laura Ashley fabric...£2 per metre :)... with the plan to make the twins a summer dress each using a pattern I have used before http://finelinenandpurple.blogspot.co.uk/2011/12/christmas-dresses.html 

However, their Mummy says they aren't really 'into' dresses at the moment and could I make a skirt and shorts instead? I'm happy about that as it means no zips :)

Gorgeous! I used to have a Laura Ashley dress. I wore it until it practically fell apart.

Aww...sad when little girls grow out of dresses using dresses, but what lovely fabric for summer shorts and tops! They'll surely love them!

I don't do zippers very well so I too like the idea of tops or shorts :) I know it is going to be extra cute!

Laura Ashley creates some of my favorite fabric designs. I would like to see the finished outfits if it works for you. They are so blessed to have you in their lives.
