Into the sun

This morning we felt cold at the beach, but yesterday...

Playing with letters

When Petra posted this bag last Wednesday, I came up with the idea to make a C-bag for Christina, L's friend. She gave a great birthday party the day after, so I finished the bag (made of Ikea fabric) the very same day of the post. That's how inspiration should work, don't you think? It gave me sewing wings!

But the day after we decided that the bag was more like a G-bag instead of a C-bag... Luckily last Friday L came home with another invitation of another birthday party of another friend. Guess what, her name is Grietje! Honestly I think this bag will suit Grietje even better...
I can imagine the letters J, T, U, V, X and Z will do the job as well. Are you giving it a try?

Yellow

If I ever would get the opportunity to meet the designer of these tubes, I would embrace him or her. These great colored and graphic designed beauties we use quite often and every time I love to see and use them again. Wounds are a pleasure to treat by now!

Me and zippers

L is having a birthday party at the moment. For Philemon I made this pencil pouch. It means practicing zipper sewing to me. The fabric of Ikea you saw before.

All design credits of this present go to my super creative friend Kristel. A lot of variations are entering my mind... I'm curious what the outcome of that will be. And if there will be one...

Be careful birthday boy!

Family wear?

She wanted to have these. To wear under shorts with tights. I allowed her to buy her first sort of unhealthy footwear. In the shop I joined her. It feels like former times! Perfect Saturday's wear. But as well under a jacket to the office.
Now the three of us have Allstars. F is a persistent refuser, so we finally canceled our plan to give him a pair for his birthday tomorrow.
