But as long as I can sit forward sufficiently to see the seam guide on my sewing machine and overlocker, my creative space is full of work-in-progress tops for spring. Sleeveless stretchy tops with patterned fronts and colourful backs, with a decided nature theme in anticipation of spring's delights. I'll finish these off over the weekend using the mysterious Finki Coverstitch Machine.
This is Flower:
And this familiar-looking print is Leaf:
And as this is my 300th post I'm going to do something completely out of character and have a giveaway! One random commenter on this post will be given a spring top in their chosen print, in size 10,12,14 or 16. I'll make it especially! All you have to do to be in it is say which print is your favourite (and make sure I've got a way to contact you).
Giveaway closes midnight Saturday 28th August, Melbourne time. Gotta be in it to win it!

Hi Jennie - glad to hear that bub is back where s/he belongs! I just bought a few metres of the "flower" fabric. Your tops look great! "Leaf" would have to be my favourite.
Love the different coloured backs and fronts. The feather is definitely my choice - black and red is one of my favourite combos.
What a super cool and generous giveaway! I'd pick flower for sure of course.
such gorgeous tops! perfect for the warmer weather {when it comes}
I'd go leaf for sure!
Hello Jennie, I too am on the verge of not fitting into my maternity clothes with a baby that has decided to turn the right way round, although it's a bit of a wriggeler so who knows where it'll end up. I really love the patterned fabrics you've been using for you latest stuff. Makes me wish I had an idea of how to sow more than a bag for my scrabble letters as there's nothing like that round these parts at the moment and am feeling far too beige!
Leg cramps! I hear you sister, damn they are BIATCHES! What ARE you supposed to do when you have one, anyway?! The boy says stretch it out but that hurts too, ugh, it hurts to even think about it.
Oh... and happy 300th! lol
Hullo! Your tops look superdooper.
I'm a fan of the "Leaf" fabric, myself.
So glad the baby's back where she should be. ;)
love,

With my baby girl, I became so tired of being pregnant and having nothing that fit me that I actually vowed to wear the same two outfits everyday until she was born. Of course she took another 3 weeks and I was totally sick of those outfits by then, but I stuck to it out of stubbornness.
My fave is Leaf. My son's preferences must be growing on me because anything green is his favourite too! :)
i love the feather print. because its black and i love black.
Ooh glad to hear he/she is back to where they should be!
I think they are all lovely but especially love leaf!
Having a bit of a giveaway on my blog too!
When I was pregnant a long, long time ago my mum bought me a new maternity dress just three weeks before baby was due. I said I didn't need it, but it was SO nice to wear something different!
I vote for feather (although leaf would go very well with a quilt top I've just finished...)
I luv the color combination's you've done. Just fabulous.
My fave is the leaf design (:
Dang I missed it... But congrats on 300 ramblings!
