5 out of 5 starsVery very pleased with this nightdress case.
Nicely presented in a box with clear lid, she even excluded circular clear stickers for me to seal box after 'inspecting' item.
Would recommend vee pretty and use her again -

My 1926 ironing board which I have used since the 1980's
I was at one of those 'crossroads' in life ....
Sewing to me is the most wonderful thing and I can't think of anything I haven't made, for myself or family, at some point.
One day when I was looking at my Grandmother's lingerie case in the drawer it gave me the idea of making one for a wedding present. She went through two world wars and The Great Depression, and I remember her telling me how special this beautiful object was to her, seeing it everyday uplifted her spirits and now mine.
Everyone who saw the gift said "wow, you should make these for others!" With family encouragement I set about creating Vee Pretty. My daughter said "Mum, why not make your shoe bags too". I love fine leather shoes, and around 30 years ago made my first padded shoe bags to help protect them in suitcases whilst travelling. They are still going strong.
My partner's view the cushions on the bed have no use led to my designing the pillow nightdress case which is cunningly disguised as a cushion and therefore acceptable!
My daughter wanted a bag to hang in the wardrobe for hosiery, I thought this would work for corsets too as these cant be stored flat.
What better gifts could you give a special lady: both practical and beautiful, all handmade and many one only designs.
