A friend of mine down the next road has been making herself a new dress. It's the first time she's done any sewing for years and it's looking really good.
The fabric is plain apricot. Very plain - not even a slub in the weave.
A couple of months ago I helped her with getting the collar put onto the dress and she said it needed 'something' to break up the apricot. She'd seen some flower motifs in our local shop and decided that they 'might' do. I came home with a sample of the fabric and came up with these little flowers below which I delivered yesterday.

Those look delightful. What a sweet friend!
Your blog finally updates! Yay! Those flowers are cute. The brown will look very pretty against the apricot. Nice job, as always.
