When school went back and I began studying, free time was a little scarce for making things, so here is everything I made from February to April!
- Taylor Swift Eras Outfit
I made a skirt and a top with a satin lining and an overlay of sparkly tulle. Of course, I also made about 20 friendship bracelets! The top and the skirt were made just by trial and error – measuring my body, sewing, trying on, etc. There’s a zip on the side of the skirt and on the back of the top.
2. Baby-boy cupcakes
A dear friend who was due with a baby boy in May had a baby shower, so I took the opportunity to make these ruffly buttercream vanilla cupcakes.
3. Bunny Bags
I made 10 Easter bunny bags for the little people in my life for Easter – a great stash-buster if you have an ever-growing fat-quater stash like me. You can find a tutorial here.
4. A Lemon Meringue Cake
I made this cake from Clare Saffitz’s book Dessert Person and it is delicious!
5. A Lambeth-Style Cake
This cake was for my niece’s 2nd birthday – strawberry flavour inside so it was super pink!
6. A Busy Board
James and I put together this busy board as a gift for my niece and she loved it! Lots of things to zip, spin and play with.
7. Ceramics
I tried my hand at wheel-throwing as a birthday activity and I am totally obsessed. Will update with pictures of finished pieces once I collect them.
