Nancy-Raven's attic: My recents activities

The attic is a place dedicate to share my passion :costuming and sewing.I'm not a professional or expert seamstress,only the mother of young kids who love sewing.You won't find 100% historical costume,museum replica, perfection or extreme thing here.

I believe everyone who bring some goodwill can sew and enjoy it.The attic is an unpretentious place .I show my work, information and hope it could somehow inspired you.Feel free to leave comment or share idea.Be welcome and visit as much as you want.

My recents activities

I didn't post as much as I wish to do.My honey is sometimes glue to the computer but I have a lot to post .I have more free time during the summer so I will try to use it.

In the middle of june it was my friend Gwenyver birthday.As a baker I do 50% of the year is dedicated of making chocolate so making special cake is not something I do a lot.For her birthday I make her this cake at home which mean I do not have access to all the professionnal stuff .

Fabric which need ironing.I spend an hour to do it .I had enough leftover to do an entire new kimono which make me happy.Am I going to fit in is another question .

A recent buy , a wonderfull felt hat from somewhere in the 60's.I'm doing a complete cleanup and restauration job on it .I will have a post later on that.

I'm also preparing my costume for the picnic.Mine will be something I buy but I'm excited about it.It will arrive by UPS today.I do have many things to post so come soon.Have a nice and sunny day everyone.
