Repurpose/Upcycle Linen Challenge and Prize.

In June I took part in the June 'Upcycle Linen Challenge' on the Yahoo AADC Bleuette Group.

I didn't have any vintage hankies or linens and was very kindly sent some from my friend.


This was the first handkerchief I used.  I thought the greens would suit Hazel.



Here she is modelling the dress that I submitted for the challenge.

I also finished another one in June, but didn't get to upload the photo.


This time I chose a blue hanky 


I wasn't convinced this photo did the dress or Hazel justice which is partly why I didn't post it on the group.



I took this photo today in the garden.  Hazel is wearing a new wig I came across while sorting through some of my smaller wigs.  I think she looks really cute in it.



You can imagine my surprise when I won the challenge - yes me who very rarely if ever, wins anything!  The prize arrived while I was away and Hazel was delighted to find a gorgeous handmade dress.  She looks so pretty in it.


Thank you so much Trish for both the linens that enabled me to take part and the wonderful prize.
