I have to congratulate you for being so restrained in your purchases. I think if you made some simple A line skirts they wouldn't take too long and your could just wear different coloured T shirts with them. You could make the main part of the skirt red and have a deep hem of blue at the bottom?

Yes, I like the eye lashes one very much too. It would make a great skirt, just think of the different colour tops you could wear with it. To be honest, I think you have been very modest in your purchases.

Maybe Tilly's new one with buttons down the side or the one from sew me something. If you know the good cafe, we could go there for our next meet up it is just I only knew the shop not anywhere else to make a day of it.
