Frocktails Final RSVP's.

Frocktails is fasting approaching, I'm delirious with excitement.
When I start talking about Frocktails, I get a silly grin on my face! I'm sure it will be better than what I dream it to be when I'm up feeding Ginger in the wee hours of the night.

Just to recap here is some information:

When? 

7th of September.
Where? 

Longrain Melbourne for Cocktails, Dinner and Dessert.
What time?
6.00pm till late.
What do I wear? 
That's up to you! It could be great if we could all wear a dressy self-stitched frock, but that may not suitable for your lifestyle etc, as long as its made by you, you'll fit right in.

There has been a lot of chat on twitter on what to wear or make, something to remember, make whatever you feel comfortable in! Everyone is an individual, so if you feel comfortable in a day dress or pants then make that, we won't judge you!

**RSVP has now closed. Thank you to everyone for your prompt response. Only 3 weeks to go!!**

Thanks for reading,

Meet Ginger!

My darling creation was born last week, 12 days overdue!

Ginger arrived weighing 4.05 kilos, and 54cm long!

His eviction orders were well and truly served. With the help of some powerful drugs, bought on his speedy arrival, in a 3 hours and 20 minute labour!

We were home late afternoon on Thursday and we have been getting to know our little Ginger ever since.  We having being marvelling at our beautiful creation. My heart breaks when I think about how much love I have for him. 

He is a lovely, happy baby, although he sleeps through the day and not the night, that's how he was in utero too so not much has changed. I'm sure you can see by the photo what cubby cheeks he has! They are even better in person, just great for squishing!

I'm doing really well, and feel great, I haven't been counting the weight but on the day of his birth, I lost 5 kilos! I was happy about that. I have decided at this stage not to share his name on the blog. 

I'm going to take a few months break from blogging although not sewing, and will be back with new dresses and tops later in the year.

There will be a frocktails update in meantime, which I will be then communicating via email, so if you have RSVP'd looked out for that. Remember I need your email address to contact you. :)

Thanks for reading.
