New Dress and Fibre Art Wales!

I made this dress a while ago, for the day after the wedding (we had a garden party)
but I just hadn't got round to taking a photo of it until now!
I got the idea from a dress I saw in topshop....
The shoulders were a bit tricky as there was lots of material to fit into a small distance but I think it turned out well :)



I also went on an awesome day out at the 'National Botanic Garden of Wales'!
It was a bit rainy but me and Mum braved it to see the new 'Fibre Art Wales' exhibition!
Fibre Art Wales is a group of textile designers based in Wales who created work inspired by the Gardens to be displayed outdoors within the gardens themselves. Some of the exhibits are made to withstand the Welsh weather but some are meant to change and weather over time :)
