The Sew Sindy Page

Simply the page from the story:


using some Cosmo Cricket Girl Friday and a big October Afternoon Thrift Shop sticker


Oh, no, there is one other thing - I have been testing out the new mobile device version of From High In The Sky. So if you read on your phone, have a look and see what you think. Quicker? easier? What do you reckon?

    Oh sewing Sindy clothes brings back happy memories of times spent with my gran but I have to admit that although I had a Sindy I really wanted my cousins Tressie doll xxx

    this is a great page and the elements you have used are perfect. I like the top cluster especially. And such a great CC background paper. Reminds me that I ought to stock up on some basics like this - love it!

    As for the phone stuff - you are veering into another language there for me I'm afraid :D

    Another great page. Checked out your blog on my phone. Loads really quickly and easy to read and navigate. Also easier to comment. I usually avoid commenting when reading on my phone but this was okay to do.

    Great page, love the distressed look and vintage feel. No probe accessing your blog on my touch. I haven't worked out how to post photos that are loaded on the laptop from the iTunes.... So if you know, can you tell me?

    Love this CC line (well I love most of 'em) bought two or three sets of it. I like the cluster and balance of elements plus the top cluster. Distressed edges make me think of the old book too.

    I think Sindy should do a fashion show. Looking forward to seeing all her new outfits. I used to make clothes for mine too but I don't think they were as good as yours. Love the layout your title lettering is perfect.

    I viewed the page on my iphone and it loaded instantly and was perfectly sized. How did you do that?!!!
    Brilliant layout, I feel quite nostalgic for my Sindy doll now, wonder if I can find her up in the loft ......

    Good page - I like the "note paper" for your journalling and the little cut-out fashion illustrations. It's colourful and fun too.
