I am actually thinking of doing something similar for a fair in Denmark this summer. I will make a short jacket with the same fabric from Ikea and pair it with a skirt in red wool. <br /><br />A little question: how much shipping and tax did you end up paying for the shoes?

Actually, I managed to make the entire anglaise from just one side of the duvet, I only cut the trimmings from the other side. So one bigger duvet should be plenty for an anglaise gown :)Norahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15770653136515096726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8182504564788811181.post-47866661959772968142014-07-25T19:39:39.658-07:002014-07-25T19:39:39.658-07:00That fabric is so beautiful!
