new guys in town

I know it's been quite a while. I'm still here, quietly working on new designs. Clearing my head after weeks  of deliberation composing our new to arrive fabric collection. These bums do make me smile. I just love making the rhino-guys. Old pal Riik will soon be leaving the stage, making room for..

spring fever

Despite the extreme cold that just veiled our country, I continue to suffer from an emerging spring fever. What better could I do than sew something spring-like? These nice two pillowcases now warm our bedroom, let's hibernate till spring.

Don't you just adore the new line of fuwari's by nani IRO?! I do! Today I made a start on a pattern for a summer blouse for little Hadewig. As the plum one is her favorite, plum it is!

Many fabric orders make me curious about the goal/the end result our customers had in mind. Surprising combinations of fabrics inspire me and encourage me to dare to take risks in combining colors and patterns and even different kinds of material. Sadly I do not control all workmanship. I wish I could find the time to follow a course in coating chairs. Carline, thank you for sharing your great piece of work, I love it! What a great way to revitalize an old but valuable piece of furniture.

getting colder
