Blue dress

From one of the fabrics, I made a light, airy and flowy summery dress.

 

I didn't have a pattern, but sort of copied one of the dresses I bough a few years ago during one of our many stays on Elba.

This year I am going to be ready for summer.

Remember my post from February - now it's time for an update:

I already used 2 out of 3 fabrics.

I used the concert tickets.

I used the plane ticket.

 

But in the meantime I acquired:

5 new fabrics

another concert ticket

new plane tickets


Me happy :-)

Crazy weather

I cannot go past the crazy weather we're having.

Not my home town - but not that far either:

15. 4. at 14:00: 27 C

16. 4. at 16:00: 0.2 C

An almost 27 degree difference in one day.

My hometown was not much better, from 25.3 to 0.5.

Oh well.

Tiger kimono

When your close friend celebrates his 50th birthday, he deserves a present. 

And since he's practicing karate for quite a while now, he'll be getting a tiger-kimono. 

 
With a corresponding belt. And yes, he's got a green belt, so a jungle belt it is.
 

And black velvet collar.

I did my best in pattern placing and pattern matching - it's not perfect, but not bad, methinks.

I hope he will like it. 

And use it.

At least once :-)

What a weekend!

Mountain bike season opened ✓

Climbing season opened ✓

SUP season opened ✓

Grill season opened ✓

Hammock season opened ✓

Mosquito season opened ✓

Opening of the kayak season is somehow delayed, although I don't quite know why. Maybe because we're busy doing all the other things :-)

Yann, again.

There are some songs/compositions that hit just the right notes.

This is one of them:

Yann Tiersen, Kerdrall

And yes, I saw him live. 

Perfection.

Except his new hairstyle which I just cannot approve. 

Sorry, Yann.
