Back Down Memory Lane

Yesterday I found these little animal-bags in my wardrobe.  When I was younger I liked to knit.


To the left is a bear-bag and to the right is a rabbit-bag. I still like childish things, even though I'm 22. I don't see any reason to be all boring and grown-up since that is what I'm supposed to be anyway, from now on, forever on.

Just my cup of... coffee

I think we all have some old jeans lying in the back of our wardrobe somewhere. At least I did, before I decided to remake two pair of old jeans of mine. This is part one of two in my remaking jeans-theme.

Out of a pair of black jeans I made a pair of shorts (a classic I know!). Below you can see photos of my recycled four-pocket black denim shorts.

I'm very fond of bows, as you might understand by now. That's not the whole story behind the lace bows though. Several years ago I saw a young woman in a pair of shorts with bows on the back pockets. So this is basically an idea I've stolen (guilty, guilty). I'm happy with the result. :)

Now it's study time! Coffee, coffee, coffee.

My little-sister F. and I spent some days together. We decided to dye some of our clothes. We chose yellow textile colour and red textile colour. 

First some yellow/orange...

                                                                                                                                                               

Then it became more interesting. It was time for some red textile colour! 



Dancing with myself in my blood orange skirt. I love it.

                                                                                                                                                               

 Last but not least we dyed a grey tank in the red textile colour. The greyness changed into some kind of purple-pink colour. I like the result. The batik-pattern looks nice.

                                                                                                                                                               

Just a little bit blue

Welcome to my sewing blog!

So, I start this blog with some photos of my most recent sewing project.

I decided to remake this blue vintage dress.

I turned the half-strange dress into something new: a blouse with a peter pan collar and with a little bow of course. I matched it with a black pencil skirt. I think I like it. :)
