I have been too busy dressmaking in the last two weeks to do any sewing for the website, which is good as I am getting a bit of sewing money in, but as always lament the fact that I do not have more time for sewing and crafting. I am making a suit and am about to start on a debutante dress, I will add a picture of this when done, so long as the wearer agrees. I bought some silk for a silk screen last weekend and I will have someone (thanks
I have been thinking about the direction the on-line shop should take, as in whether I should try to specialise with one or two products (say, just shirts or t-shirts) or make a whole range. It is a little bit disorganised now, I mean I just have singular items on a dummy in each picture. I will work on getting a model to wear a whole outfit in each; it will be much better this way. Therefore, I think I just answered my own question; I need offer the whole outfit for sale.
I am looking forward to doing some screen-printing; I have done a little bit in the past, but only basic stuff. I think I will start with some basic one colour prints with paper cutouts, these are often more effective than elaborate photograph emulsions anyway I think. Stay tuned!

T-shirts would be cool. Would they just be for females or males too?
I've been thinking about getting a friend to model my bags too. I think it would look a lot better.
I think I would do males to. I have loads of ideas spinning around in my head, it's just a case of doing!
Getting a model is a good idea.
