In the picture I'm wearing my Charlie Chaplin coat and trousers. But the green waistcoat is one I made recently. -I like to think it's missing a button on purpose, gives it a little more character.
It's got two little fake pockets on either side and is made of second hand green corduroy and lined with calico.

About a 1940s jacket and it's pointy hood.
Here I am wearing the jacket made from the above pattern. It's got a nice pointy hood. The fabric and buttons I used were second hand.
(Better not try and guess what's happening in the photograph. -Although the chickens in the background seem to be feathery accomplices of some sort.)
I made those pants and lederhosen recently out of an old blanket and dented silver buttons.

My grandparents peeking out of a frame.
A rather odd wedding photograph of them. I glued it and some card onto back, and if that wasn't enough, on top of all those layers I glued a brooch pin.
Now I can wear my grandparents on my sleeve.
