Believe it or not, the reason why I mend (and sometimes make) my kid’s clothes is not the money. Making clothes, even fixing them is not always cheaper. It is simple, today “time is money” and everyone who’d sewn anything in their life will know that it takes time even to make the simplest thing. […]
Read more, you know you want to!As you can see in the photos, P is not into posing for me anymore. He had to do it, because I made these oil cloth aprons for his kindergarten so he felt somewhat obliged to put it on, but not really enough to put on his model face too.

Read more, you know you want to!As the title says, I think I am awesome! My whole life I was freaked out of sewing with knits. I started a while ago with some upcycles and it really wasn’t that bad at all. But to make a T-Shirt was impossible to imagine for me. I thought I needed a serger, my machine […]
Read more, you know you want to!I discovered Sophie and Cirque Du Bebe through stuff n’ stay for creative play tutorial, and I’ve been hooked ever since.
