{16 August 2011} Weekly Sewing Inspiration

I had so much fun doing an inspiration board for the Shabby Apple design that I decided it would be fun to do one for each of my sewing projects.  I really love seeing images from other people on what inspires their projects--so I hope you will enjoy these!  Once I get organised enough I'll also add all these images to pinterest (I have a code to join but haven't done it yet).

So, this is what is inspiring this week's sewing project:

Sources: 1. Mid 50's Sears book, 2. The Edge of Love movie still from Penny Dreadful Vintage blog, 3) Mid 50's Sears book, 4. Thakoon suit, 5. Vera Wang Lavander Label, 6) the letter 'g' (for great? good? golly? gosh? how about 'goodness gracious?) from slippinSouthern on etsy, 7) Mid 50's Sears book, 8) April 1940 Vogue (my own photo).
