Along The cobbled Streets of St Cathrines Hill

I dont even know where to start..... I am now comming up to the end of my second week in the quaint little town of Frome, I can tell you it is far from quiet!! There is always something going on..... for example  last week I took part in the annual Frome Festival Fashion show, Modeling a talented identpant local designer, Truly Sopel's newly launched knicker collection. alongside the fashion show my personal highlight of the week there are many events and workshops happening throughout the week during the festival why not have a look on the website where there are great images that capture the country-cottage community atomosphere and step into the real Somerset.

As some of you may know, I am currently  on a work experience placement at Truly Sopel, I am here for a month so I am saddly half way through my time here already. It has been a great experience so far. Though I must say I was slightly dropped in at the deep end on my first day when asked to be a model for the Frome fashion show..... I will share that I may of been secretly nervous however doing it was fablous.  I mean what girl doesn't love having her hair and make-up done to look stunning,  to then be dressed in the cutest and comfortable top and knicker set.... I know its hard to believe but if you come to Truly Sopel you will find gorgeous unquie garments balanced with comfortable fit so it is certainly wearable day in day out!

 If you long to capture the inchild within you Truly Sopel Boutique is the place to go as its full of innco playful creations waiting for you to try on.

I love working here its a beautiful place full of lovely people!!

What have I been up to you maybe asking? well its different day to day, though the sewing machine is on stand-by and has been used well as I have been making a few Autumn/Winter knicker sets, from these sweet antique 100% cottons fabrics constructed in the same style as the present collection..... keep your eye out for them!

I have also been sewing a couple of samples ready for the Autumn/Winter collection once again to be sent to the factories for production. One being an adorable button up hooded cape which is close to being my favourite item for the cold season.

So far I have do a lot of hands on sewing and pattern cutting enabling me to get a realistic feel for the company and what is involved....Thanks Truly.
