:stripy sock photo of the week:

image

This week’s gem is from Nikki - craftswoman extraordinaire and mother of the seems-not-so-devilish-but-actually-quite-sweet ‘devil child’.

Those are Nikki’s shapely pins and she played around in photo shop to achieve that darling background. This week’s photo makes me think of cupcakes and broderie anglaise lace and other girlish stuff. Yum.

Also, a link - I love Flickr and every week find images there that inspire me - found this yesterday - it makes my heart sing...the wind in her veil, the smile, the dress, the car, the winter trees...like a still from an alternate life I might have liked to live.

What a great photo! I too find so many things on Flickr that inspire me!

Ah - I’m pretty sure photoshop shaved off an inch here and there. wink

And thanks for your lovely words. I’m not sure how it got so pink - I’m very much an earthy coloured girl.

Love the bridesmaid photo. I’d laugh and laugh and laugh if I saw a series where people had donned their old bridesmaid dresses and headed out on the street.
