Hello, and welcome to my blog.

My name is Lavender George and I love to make things. I have been painting, creating and crafting since a small child, firstly from sheer pleasure, and when my children were small, and money was tight, from necessity. Now I hope to make art my main source of income and keep the sewing, crochet and knitting for fun.
I hope you enjoy looking at the things I make, and reading about my inspiration and work in progress.

A Swirly Summer Dress

Here's a summer dress I made yesterday afternoon from New Look Pattern no.6936. This is so amazingly simple to make, and although it doesn't look much on the hanger, it is surprisingly pretty on. It has a nice wrapover top and ruched shoulders with ties, and has an empire-line waistband. I can't wait to wear this with a white vest top and white lined trousers, sandals and maybe some jangly bracelets. Perfect for a daytrip on a sunny summer's day.
