100 Days of Handmade//Day 73//

From the Archives – Wrestled it from the cat!

My lovely sister, Karen, gave me this on the week-end. And I can’t believe she still had it!

This is one of my earliest machine-sewn creations, dating back to when I was about 12……a playsuit for Karen’s doll. I have no recollection of the doll but very distinct memories of dressing the cat in this outfit!

Memory lane….had a lovely wander!
