How could I have forgotten to show off my pride & joys? I wrote about the workshop, but not what I took away!
Well just for your amusement, here are my boudoir frillies, as Jane described them.
I wanted to model them for you in a socially acceptable way.
Thanks Gary for the magic
;
Also wanted to share the loot from our fabric & pattern swapping. I feel so lucky to have come away with these wonderful patterns.
And this fabric.
Jane & I seemed to be on the same swap wavelength this time – you will recognise the grey floral pique, & the gorgeous grey floral light weight fabric was also brought by Jane. Tamsin kindly swapped the lawn. A vintage buckle and cute needle case also found their way home with me….I felt totally spoilt.
O! Time for some planning & making!!!
;
You are hilarious!!!
I love the patterns! And the lawn is fabulous. Can’t wait to see what you make!
Thanks noelle…I’m looking forward to some making time now my social calendar is looking less busy. The grey floral is high in the queue ….
Great photo! And the knickers look wonderful!
Superman has nothing on you Winnie, nothing!!! I love all the goodies you came away with too…gorgeous! I think I may have to plan my autumn/winter sewing around stash-busting as I have far too much stuff and it’s suffocating me at the moment!
Hmm, I know what you mean, I would love my stash to match my wardrobe needs…but sadly there are bound to be gaps….but it’s a good place to start….planning from the stash.
love the picture!
knickers keep popping up everywhere! love it!
Pants all over the web! Do you think it’s contagious?!?
Oh you spoil us Winnie, you really do!
A telephone box boudoir eh?
Do you know I don’t think there is even a plain modern day phone box up near my home….where have they all gone?!?
I love the model shot – you really do put a smile on my face! You have some lovely scores from the swap, I look forward to seeing what you make.
Thank you …I’m glad you smiled and understood/ humoured me !!
With all the lingerie postings in Blogland lately, we ought to start a subgenre, and call it something like Knickers and Knockers. Just a thought.
Ha ha knickers and knockers, like it !!
I, too, want to thank Gary for his magic. What a FABULOUS photo. I chuckled quite a bit after seeing it.
I will pass it on to the magician
Nice pants luv! Great photo magic, ha ha!

Thanks
Fab knickers, great pic, awesome day out
)
AHHHHH! Super Badger!! Saving the world, one finely-stitched pair ‘o’ undies at a time!
Love the punchline…must remember that one!
that’s a fantastic photo! x
Oh those pants are AMAZING!!! And your pic is of course hilarious!!! I’d like to think it wasn’t photoshopped! xxx
Oh me too! IF there were still phone boxes I might have been tempted at something like 6am when no one could see me at the height of my super powers!!
Oh, dear. This is not helping my underwear fixation… especially your daring modeling!
I love the new patterns, too, especially the 70s one!
Ha ha! Yes, I always think of you when there are cool 70s patterns in sight!!
Great photo…you made me laugh in the middle of a bleurgh day! Thank you. I am sorry I couldn’t come to the workshop, really need to get out soon.
xx
GOOD! I aim to please. And I dont care if you are laughing at me as opposed to with me…laughter on a bleaugh day hopefully helps turn it around a bit
Hilarious photo! My thanks to Dave as well – gave me a good laugh!
Ohhhh Winnie… You get me every time… Ohhh I’m giggling still
Made me chuckle, Superwoman! What a wonderful day. And gorgeous knicks! I LOVE LOVE LOVE that black and white rose fabric, too – I have a length of a similar one in latte-no wait, I have a cut and unsewn UFO…
He he he! Thanks Mrs C! And thanks Rachel too, I am happy that there are a few smiles to be had by my silliness
Better than the eye rolling I’d get from some people!

I’ve been following your blog for a very long time now, but haven’t ever been a commenter. But I recently decided to start poking my nose in now and then, and this certainly got my attention! I love your willingness to play for us, your costumed posts are some of my favourites (hehe, I still chuckle over your bewigged 60′s air stewardess) and this is no exception – undies are great, Superman photo is fantastic, and you are amazing!
Thank you! That is so kind of you & “hello”- nice to get to know more people who don’t object to my silliness (& even encourage it!)
