Beth Sprouts Homemade; Mediterranean summer

Ahh glorious sunshine. Oh how we missed thee. So much so that we chucked all our old summer clothes out!
(and by chucked I mean donated)

Sadly a shop in Bristol which has sold Fairtrade Cotton for the last 30 years or so is closing down. Even online. And more sadly I have only recently found the shop (or at least that they sold fabric), so have not had enough time to make the most of them. So in my last visit I picked up a heavy stripey cotton, in the style of Dolce and Gabbana SS13, and a funny shade of peach light cotton.

Playing with shapes here a little, so it isn't what you'd normally expect for an arm hole. Here's my new summer dress.

Beth Sprouts Handmade; skjorta

First swedish lesson. Skjorta = shirt. (Pro. a bit like who-worta) (ish).
Anyway, this is another shirt, I was going for 'square' as the pattern.
It was a key player in my summer wardrobe.
