Frill me with LOVE
Influenced by my love of moss-stitch (or to our North American friends: seed-stitch). This graceful design is showcased by a faltering
peplum skirt that delicately and seamlessly falls from a box shaped bodice. A delicious jacket; stylish and warm. The garment is designed with negative ease for a flattering fit. No shaping for a feminine silhouette.
To fasten your FRILL ME WITH LOVE together you have the choice of small buttons or button-free to fasten use one of our handmade shawl-pins.
The main body section is moss stitch and the peplum skirt and sleeves can either be in smooth (stocking stitch) or ridged (garter stitch). The cuffs and skirt are finished off with a picot edge; graceful small defining points.
Best wishes
Belinda
