This weekend I’ve been increasing my tweetie stash, both for a new stockist (about which more later), and for my stall at the Pretty Dandy Flea next Saturday.

This newbie is made from some recently acquired fabric that I think is rather glorious.

But when I’d finished her, there was a sort of vacant look about the eyes. As though she could be on drugs, or just… absent,  somehow.

It just wouldn’t do and I had a moment of panic, until my eye alighted on my recent purchase from my friend Maria at Sunshine Lovely Vintage Stuff.

Et voilá!

A bit of vintage trim, and the vacancy was instantly filled.

Sometimes, one little thing can make all the difference. ♥
