Lingerie & Boxers

Hello, Hope you have had a great day. Its so hot here, its 8pm and still too hot to walk Fee, she's not very impressed.

I finally got some sewing done today, not for me though, i made some more shorts for my friends daughter and some more for my shop. I have still got to hem them, put the elastic in and add some lace. Hopefully i will get them finished tomorrow.

I can show you some i made a couple of weeks ago, and some lingerie sets, modeled on my new mannequin, an Ebay bargain....she does have a head but i keep cropping it out of the photos as it looks a bit creepy. Even more creepy is that J keeps taking her head off and leaving it places for me to find, like the cupboard, or in the garden :)






I was asked to make some boxer shorts, these are quite a bit shorter than my others.



They are all a lot smaller than me so i can't be tempted to wear them :)




I love making the lingerie sets now i have got the pattern right, there was a lot of sulking, and stroping while it kept going wrong.




Have a lovely evening/afternoon xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Very cute! I'm impressed. I am not sure I ever want to try lingerie.

My husband would probably do the same thing if I had a mannequin....

Wow - the lingerie sets look so good. I am very impressed. Are they for you or for the shop? And did you use a pattern? I am very curious to know more!
