While looking for ideas for a 'Nina Bettina' skirt (I think it's supposed to be red, cut on a circle, and very swirly with some kind of of pretty finishing on the bottom), I came across this fascinating website where you can buy e-patterns for all sorts of interesting projects.
Of course, I had to take a look, didn't I? They have some fabulous ideas and I soon fell in love with a pattern for some very special 'booties' or little shoes, if you'd prefer. They'd be perfect for a Christening ceremony. I really like the lace finished pair in the middle. They're quite gorgeous.
There are some cute little 'kitty' shoes/booties too, although my preggie-chickie didn't like them.
Lots of instructions and lots of ideas on youcanmakethis.com too. Woodworking, jewellery and beading, photography... I could get lost there.
Take a look and let me know what you think...
