You may have noticed that the Diddle & Ro stores have been empty for some time now. So I guess it will come as no great surprise that I've decided to end Diddle & Ro for good. It really made no sense to be making little girls dresses anymore when my youngest daughter is no longer little.
Another factor was just how time consuming making clothing is. I know that there are a lot of people that could happily sew everyday, but I'm not one of those people. I guess you could say my heart was no longer in it. I do love to sew but only when I feel inspired.
Anyhow, I thought you may like to look at some of my favourite things I've made and sold since starting Diddle & Ro back in June 2010.
Vintage fabric patchwork quilts..love. I gonna keep making these.
The "Miss Miranda" Pinafore. Gosh! I made a lot of these dresses.
The "Go Scottie" Romper
Mini Pinafores.
the "Tea Party" Dress
In case you are wondering what patterns I used to make these dresses...They are my own designs.
Boys Pj's. I really loved this "Toy Soldier" set I made for Ronan. He was so cuddly in them. The "Retro Rocket" pj's sold well online and at markets. So Fun
At the markets...sign. Gonna miss those early Saturday mornings :)
I'm gonna keep blogging here, so don't go anywhere.
A big thank you to all my lovely customers.
