Next is Kim from Serene Jane and thegirlcanthelpit.co.uk
Kim is a UK VFG member. She says..."..My love of vintage (and Elvis) began many years ago when as a young girl I dressed in my Mum's old crinolines and pretended to be a bride. By my teens I insisted on making my school uniforms to old 50's patterns and was pretty much seen as " a little odd"! This did not worry my at all as I just adored the era and let's face it, as this was the time of Punk and New Romantics, I was actually pretty normal! I adore the glamour of the great Hollywood years of the 1940's through to the early 1960's." In 2007 she opened a shop space with a friend who restores furniture and she started her website, thegirlcanthelpit.co.uk. She also sells on ebay and here is an item from her store... Look at this 50s Cotton Cutwork Summer Dress...(click to view)

It did get me thinking about crochet garments though, and how I'd love to make something wearable one day. But it's a risky business, making crochet clothing. I'm aware that there's a veeeeeeeery fine line between stylish and naff, between nasty and nice, and I'm not sure I'm quite subtle enough to sit on the right side of that fine line.
