My aunt had her ruby wedding anniversary last year, shortly after the birth of my little girl, and gave me this material, which she came across after having a clear out. It had originally been bought with the intention of making curtains for a nursery, however my aunt never had children, and so never used the material. And so, she passed it on to me. I had already started on the girly room with a pink and grey colour scheme, so I couldn't imagine using it as curtains.
Fast forward a year and the little one is fascinated with cats, specifically the cat in the material..........................so I made a dress, with a pocket, and with a cat! (Not through any grand design or plan, I realised there was no cat on the front of the dress when it was finished,
so I added a pocket with a cat) I know it's not amazingly wonderful but in my defense, it's the first article of clothing I've made since finishing high school and my little one spent the whole weekend wearing it, which put the biggest smile on my face..........
