Morning all! Today marks the online launch of Tilly Walnes’ new book ‘Love at First Stitch: Demystifying Dressmaking‘. I’ve ordered my copy and I can’t wait for it to arrive! I love Tilly’s friendly, down-to-earth writing and modern-retro sense of style. If the blog is anything to go by, the book is bound to be a corker.
To celebrate the launch, there’s a Brigitte Scarf-a-thon going on across the interweb today. Here’s my contribution:
I used some leftover cotton from my stash, hurray for dots! I followed Tilly’s instructions, opting for pointy ends and a thinner width, with this particular styling choice in mind:
Braid the scarf into two plaits and tie on top – done. I call it Heidi/Landgirl, or something. Congratulations Tilly on #loveatfirststitch, and happy online launch 🙂
