Just what I need :)

I finally got round to ordering a tailors ham and sleeve roll at the weekend, and they arrived yesterday! :) I can't wait to try pressing a dart with the ham, and the sleeve roll has seen use already. I used it to press the seams open on the top bit of the blouse I'm working on. It makes it so much easier!
Also, I solved the storage problem! I bought a little set of drawers from Argos. They were only £12.99, and Dom works there so I got staff discount too :D Here they are:

The pieces on top are the interfaced pieces of the blouse. I didn't want them to get wrinkled or bent so they can live on top for now :) As you can see I've already put the fabric and pattern in the drawers for the Crescent skirts. I can see already that its going to be so useful in not losing the thread or buttons or zipper or whatever else I need for a project. It can all go neatly away in its drawer! The drawers themselves fit nicely in between the bookshelf and the desk, so they only take up a little bit of room.
I also wore my Beignet skirt today (and yesterday)! It works to much better without woolen tights, it doesn't ride up at all. Its also just as cool as I'd hoped as its cotton. It was great to actually wear something I've made! I have to admit that this is the first time (apart from the disastrous time with the tights) that I've worn it. I'm really pleased with it. It doesn't crease as much as I was expecting, which is a definite plus :)
Oh and I have some adorable polaroids to share with you when they've finished developing! The film I used is from the first flush from The Impossible Project so its not perfect. You have to leave it in a dark place for a few days to fully develop before scanning them in as the light from the scanner can ruin the picture. So yes, look forward to some slightly blurry funny coloured cuteness! lol
