Happy 2013 friends!!
This year is going to be one to remember and to start off a great year
I have been busy stitching some new tops for my friends at work Steph and Roxy!
Both made out of original Marimekko fabric
This one is for Steph, she's a pretty rad interior stylist - you can see her stuff here www.stefanieingram.com
100% Cotton Sateen
Designed by Aino-maija Metsola for Marimekko 2010
the hem curves up and follows the design up to the side seam
the back
bias binding is my best friend. love it.
complete with rag tag
This one is for Roxy, she's also pretty lovely!
100% cotton
designed by maija isola in 1964 "vihkiruusu"
some interesting history of this one...this print was Marimekko's first floral print! simple and sophisticated
this is the back
the band at the bottom has a split in the side so it fits abit nicer.
it got a rag tag too
here is a "vihkiruusu" tote bag in a red colour way, love it!
I'll be stitching up some more marimekko fabric for another project soon, so come back soon!!
thanks for your support friends, means the world to me

Such fine handiwork......you're a marvel, Rosie. Marimekko should commission you.
