FRILLY & LACY TRIM
Since the underwear class, I’ve been obsessively thinking about making more. Alas, I am not ‘allowed’ to spend time making underwear right now. There are too many other projects & tasks that rank higher priority and need completing before starting something new. Plus, I would really like to give myself an entire day to draft up some new patterns and make a few more pairs from the patterns we used in class. I still can’t believe how comfortable and cute they are.
While running some errands today, I did allow myself to stop at Mokuba (aka. ribbon & trim heaven) and indulge in some lovely trims for my future underwear making. It took a lot of willpower to stop from buying much more. That store is dangerously enticing. I left there wanting to trim absolutely everything I make from now on.
I’m also allowed to do ‘research’, so have been surfing around Agent Provocateur, Strumpet and Pink and Stella McCartney for inspiration.

Okay, of course, I am loving these photos, especially the first. Sigh. Mokuba! I went there recently and managed to spend $40 in five minutes. I bought remnant elastic ribbon (beautiful, soft, lovely elastic ribbon) ribbon and half a of meter of some gold leaves trim. I left in a bit of a daze.
oh nooooooo… this is too dangerous…. *must guard wallet*
Gorgeous. I am so jealous 🙂
Love! Love! Love! The blue and orange trim. Must get me some of that.
