Oh dear, my plans to blog regularly haven't quite come off! Nor my best bits of 2012 blog planned for last month. Instead I have been distracted by thinking about how it all started, this love of pattern and print and junk shop treasure and that DIY ethic that gave me the confidence to do so many things. After seeing this lovely photo in the Guardian...
I was taken back to being a teenage home counties girl, discovering a love of post-punk popsters with my lovely friend Gina. We ran a stall together - full of dresses made from curtains...
Dressed ourselves up in more curtains whenever we could!
And had fun being sweet and silly, and making amazing stuff happen!
