I couldn't resist to share this blog with you:awesomepeoplehangingouttogether

David Bowie, Iggy Pop and Lou Reed, 1972

slow time

Hello there : )

I willl be back as soon as I can connect my computer again
(meanwhile check my Pinterest if you like as I will add more stuff there
when my man lend me his laptop)

At the moment is quite chaotic: although I got rid of lots of stuff,
the house we moved in it's so... let's say cosy.
I have to make drastic decisions and de clutter even more!

do I need 5 different tea sets? mmmhhh don't think so...
Aaanyway, I'm sooooo tired but finally happy to be in the new home
(although still renting am afraid).
There are lots of things to do and most importantly lot of gardening to sort it out:
I have a desolate patch of grass to play with and I'm going to grown some stuff in boxes,
watch this space for green stuff.

Hope you are all fine and thank you for your words,
I just read it and publish it now.
Moderation is now off, hopefully back to normal and no more meanies! 

Have a nice weekend

ciao for now

beep beep yay

Thank you all, once again, for your comments and support. I took your advice, I deleted the hateful comment and the post I wrote to let you know about what happened.

I'm not good at keeping things to myself, I learnt a while ago that is very bad for my health. 

I hope you don't mind that the good words you wrote there are gone too.

We are about to move to another house and next week start half term holidays.

I will take a pause from blogging and from other things too, to think about life, the universe and everything ;^) but I still  be visiting your blogs.

I leave you with these two happy friends here, Anita has made a few days ago 

(she's more artist than me although she doesn't have a degree!).

Needless to say, future anonymous hateful comments will be deleted from now on (that doesn't mean I don't accept criticism if it's constructive) the "anonymous good people" out there can sign with their name or use the name/url option (which can be linked to an email account if you don't have a website or a blog).

One of Anita's favourite songs
and one of mine


and check this out ....beep beep beep beep yay!

See you soon.... a bientot .....arrivederci....

update

My shop has been updated.

I decided to add a "support my crafts button", given what happened recently

I hope to see more of these "support buttons" in many more crafters/artists/ bloggers
shops or blogs.

A big thank you and a hug to all of you that cheered me up today, came here with good intentions and shared a bit of love.

Love Power, the power of a flower :^)

day 3 and 4 and 5

Now that blogger works again (that was weird isn't it?) I can show you what I did on day 3 and 4:

a pair of bloomers with beautiful Nani Iro fabric and a cotton top (which I had to do twice because I didn't use a pattern, stubborn me).

This evening I'm going to be lazy, I will watch a film instead and precisely this one.
Have a nice weekend.
*The shop will be updated next week (hopefully).

day two

On day two (or rather evening) I made a top and a pair of trousers with the gingham fabric left from the dress.
Today I will try to make a skirt and a pattern for a dress, see how it goes.
I quite enjoy the fact that it's a challenge otherwise I wouldn't have done it at this pace...
eeek I must be crazy!

* the fabric I used for the top is Anna Griffin "Fifi&Fido collection" ( I guess this is Fifi).

today

I can't believe is May already, today we are celebrating May Day here in England.

Anita needs new Summer clothes and a new quilt for her bed.I will use some Liberty fabric and Japanese pattern books. She grew up a lot lately and she has upgraded to a "big" bed (of course the cot bed, who became a little bed, was too small for her and she was keep banging her head... poor!).

So, to make this task less solitary, I joined KCWC project (kids clothes week challenge) found through mikodesign.
(The nice basket is from here)

Papier Mache # 7 out now

I quite like Lari Washburn sketchbooks  and designs.
