  • Ah Wendz that place looks AMAZING - exactly the sort of place I'm going to open when I win the lottery!

    Right I've found this dress pattern - what do you think? I'm not so keen on the back but it has the overall look I think... Just a bit worried it might be a bit unflattering and shapeless!

    Birdie maybe if you tell us what stuff you have we could suggest things to do with it? Also why are you printing your own photos, why not just get them done at Boots - cheaper surely?

    Ooh, actually this one might be better..?

    I love them!! I was in the dress shop during the week (killing time using the Qu1dco check in app :D) and saw it...it's lovely! You're right about the collar, stunning! The satchel's fab too - I need a biggish bag for when I do my full day circuit of MSs! May just have to pop in for a closer look when I'm out MSing later this week. It's a great colour too :)

    I have all sorts, it's just a case of sticking it together. If I wasn't so finickity about everything being 'just so' it would be easy, it's not like people are that critical of the cards that I give them! :p

    I print off my own photos because I use all different sizes and I'm not organised enough to work out what I'm going to use then go and do it at Boots. It's a case of deciding on the background and embellishments then printing a photo a specific size to fit into it's spot on the page, sometimes I think I'm going to use a big picture then decide it would better if I used a small one and vice-versa. 'Tis the nature of the (scrapbooking) beast. :o

    I like this pattern, might look quite cool and retro if you're using a paisley pattern for the bottom :)
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    I think the second one will look more interesting, nice fit and flare shape.

    You're tall but in proportion, it's not like you look like a rugby player.

    Tete would you like me to have a look through my sewing patterns see if ive got something similar? I had boxes and boxes of patterns but I sold a load on eBay a while back. I've still got quite a few though.
