***Backstage Luella SS10****

The show was fantastic! and so was the whole experience!!! managed to get some quick snaps of the backstage antics whilst hand sewing an emergency stage cage! Everyone had worked so hard the the collection looked fantastic! the Luella team is incredible and was so sad to say goodbye!!!but the third year awaits-aaahhhhhh!!!!xxx

***BAKE A CAKE...****

A Few weeks ago we were asked to help out for a Luella Bake sale, dedicated to the Macmillon Nurse fund. Everyone got busy baking and we ended up with one hell of a spread! But this was a Luella Bake sale- Complete with musically nicknamed treats! my favorites were Sarahs 'James Brownies,' the "Cream-Puff daddies" and not forgetting "Peter Audreys Mysterious Swirl" (or "Swirls aloud"-couldnt decided!) I had to decorate the affair and was pretty pleased with result! Everyone raised over £300 which as amazing!!!!xxxxxxx

We were kindly Sponsored by Jemma Kidd Makeup who sent us some amazing makeup to play with! Which was brilliant! xxx***

*.a little bit shifty.......

Found this really old picture of a shift dress we had to make in the first year! it was so much fun to play around with shifting the pattern onto different parts of the body! 

All in all works a bit stressful at the moment, have so much to do cant believe we have only got a week left!Thats why its good to reminisce about old times when projects were lovely and finished! x
