Treasury List on Etsy!

I am so excited, I just made a Treasury List on Etsy, what is this you may ask?

Well, a Treasury List is a list of 16 handmade items that you have picked from various shops on Etsy.

You can then link to the person's shop and see the rest of what they have to offer.

Photos, Photos, Photos!!

Now that I have found my camera I will start taking photos of the clothes I have made. There is an evening gown I made from Evadress patterns, which is simply gorgeous, and a top and capri pants that I've made from Glorious Vintage patterns. I love all that vintage stuff. My fav era's are the '30's, '40s and 50's. Such style and class!

Welcome to my new blog!

Now that my online store is open for business I have decided to start a blog.

I will be talking about the trials and tribulations i have with my sewing. In my store I will have a range of clothes and accessories for children and adults.

All my patterns come from other online stores, these are: Glorious Vintage, Evadress, Lena's Patterns, Tye Die Diva and Precious Patterns.

I need to say a big THANK YOU to my sister Kathleen (who also has an online store, so check it out at: http://www.kcamilleri.etsy.com).

Now why is it that I am thanking my sister??? Well I am pretty useless when it comes to this computer stuff and seeing as how she has a wonderful store up and running already, who best to ask for help! So I did, and she did!

Now I have a store: http://www.leonorasboutique.etsy.com
