Patch Work Skirt
I always like to complicate things for myself. When i got the pattern made for this i had a completely different idea in mind (which mind you i will still attempt) Late last week i decided to tackle my growing pile of fabric scraps and i cut strips of fabric (on the bias) to make this skirt. This first stage took a whole night and the next day i was ready to assemble. Little did i know that my whole day was to be consumed by finishing this skirt! Very frustrating because i love the end result but how much do i charge for something which took me all day?????Do i make more?……

Hello Autumn
Stacks has been cooking at Frankie Small HQ. With the smell of Autumn in the air i have been working on the perfect garments for the cooler months ahead.
The ‘Charlie Shorts’ are the perfect shorts for this time of year.
Made from quality denim they are a little bit sturdier than your average shorst and they are unique in every way.
I have gone back to my stash of second hand t-shirts and am churning out these great ‘long sleevies’.
I love them.
They are all unique and individually hand screen printed with my own designs. What better way to be environmentally conscious…..sizes start at 0 and go up to size 8.
For the girls i am working on this beautiful dress…
Yet to be available so stay tuned.

Summer Collection Photo Shoot
After a couple of weeks of crazy cold weather (of course just as the school holidays started) and many attempts later, my photographer and i finally managed to squeeze in a photo shoot to show case frankie small 2011/2012 summer range. After our third attempt, it almost didn’t happen. It started with a phone call at 8am in the morning and weather was pretty ominous, then another phone call at 9am and it wasn’t looking any better but i decided to go ahead with it anyway and when we finally got to the beach the tide was high! We couldn’t believe that we were so concerned about the weather we hadn’t even considered the tide. We were about to walk away but Gwena suggested we have a coffee instead and i though well if we are going to do that we might as well just bring the clothes down and let the kids run around and grab a few shots anyway. As it turned out, the light was perfect, the tide receded gradually and gwena did a fantastic job (once again) of capturing the moment and the clothes. Below are a few snaps that she has weaved her magic on and i am totally impressed!
