My name is Tracy Cushing and I’m based in Cheshire, UK.
I trained as a programmer, I love having fun with my three children, I adore my partner; but mostly what I like to do is SEW.
What do I like to sew? I like almost any kind of sewing, (except curtains…please don’t ask me to make curtains). I have very itchy fingers when it comes to sewing, this combined with having the attention span of a butterfly and the existence of sooo many beautiful fabrics out there means that it is hard for me to devote myself to one type of sewing. Thus I am incapable of specialising – on any one day you might find a dance costume, a corset, a quilt, a baby dress and a rag doll in various stages of completion stashed around the dining room my sewing room. There are always several morsbags waiting to be sewn (but seldom any curtains).
Hi Tracey.
Had a lovely look through your blog courtesy of my Yahoo search for Giesse
can I ask you to update your link in the Sara Radford corset entry to my new website rather than the myspace? It would help with Googles for me

Consider it done – hope you get lots of its….but please make sure there is some fabric left for me and my mum!
Hello Tracy.
Thanks for the mention and, what a great blog!

Came here thru Stitcher’s Guild. Your corset inspires me to make one for myself! Love the color. I also enjoy your writing. I enjoyed reading about your daughter’s first ponte (?) shoes. They looked beautiful. I could see this look on infant booties.

Hi Tracy,
Thanks for your comment on my blog! I’m so pleased it’s your favourite – that makes me feel very proud. I’d LOVE to see what fabrics you use to make it with – I always find it so interesting to see what other people choose – my colleague Amanda bamboozled me by choosing yellows and greens for her first product workshop with me – I would never have chosen yellow but I loved what she made!
Do let me know when you’ve made one!
