My creative space.

A stack of fabrics.  
This mauve tulle was used by my Mum to make an outfit for me about 25 years ago.
The purplish floral fabric was used to make my Grade 6 farewell dress by my Grandmother around the same time.  She's now in a Nursing home with dementia.
The polka dot print is brand new, and I thought it was sweet.
The vintage sheet is opped and has already lived many good years.
These fabrics new and old are going to be put to use again for my sweet one's 2nd birthday.

Can you see what they'll become?
