Pattern arrived and mini dress made!

Soon pictures and review

Big sachet filled with sandalwood poutporri to scent drawers, closets, rooms.
They are made from original B-Doll© fabric printed at Spoonflower.

Please check them out in my Etsy shop ^^

I recently finished a my Lolita style dress.
The pattern is taken from Gothic & Lolita Bible vol. 29, the most difficult thing is that pattern is in Japanese – and sadly I can’t read neither speak neither understand Japanese.
I modified the pattern beacuse on the front side the dress was very short, so I added a ruffle on the hem of the lining.
It tooked me quite a long to sew the whole dress, but I’m really happy how it turned out.

Today I finally found the time to use my Gocco for the first time. I must say I was a bit afraid, but everything was so easy. I just followed the tutorials found in the web and nothing went wrong.
The only thing I should have paid more attention to is the fact I wasted a lot of ink. Next time I will put not so much ink on the screen…
I printed only cards with the drawing of “Bambina in Nero” (the Italian translation for “Little Girl in Black”) staring at her little cat.
I’m planning to draw more “Bambina in Nero” portraits and print greeting cards and postcards, but my aim is to print on fabric.
Here you can see some pictures taken during the whole printing process. Enjoy them!

Finally my B-Doll fabric is here.
I should call the costum office and ask for some explanations, I payed costum fees for this shipping but I was supposed not to…
Anyway, two yards of fabric are avaible in my Etsy shop, and more yardage is on my way too.
Enjoy sewing ^^

My present for Mother’s Day (well, from my hubby, my daughter is still too young to buy online ^^ ) is here: a Gocco PG-5!
I discovered about Gocco only few weeks ago, and sadly it seems it was too late since it is discontinued. I found mine on ebay at a reasonable price, and now I’m waiting for all the cloth supplies (screens and inks).
If you are wondering what Gocco is, just have a look at the interesting tutorials you can find online – and don’t forget to search for Gocco on You Tube too!
-an informative page by Tiny Happy
-a tutorial by Felt Cafe
-another interesting tutorial by Celestefrittata

I think Gocco is a funny yet useful little thing one should try once in life

First of all, thanks to everyone: I’m very glad that you liked my first fabric.
Just a little note to let you know that more yardage of B-Doll fabric was shipped today from USA, I hope it will take not too much to reach me.
As soon as I get it, I will listen it in my Etsy shop.
