A crafty little atelier in a grey city

Happy Friday + Geometric Top

September 14, 2012

Can’t believe it’s Friday already! Above is a little top I made for K from this book (isbn 978-4-529-04894-1). I LOVE IT. I desaturated the image a bit for a vintage-y feel, so the color is a much stronger fuchsia in actuality. The images below are a better representation of the awesomeness of the top.

The cute blue and white striped button is from a dear friend, who brought me back a packet of adorable buttons from Amsterdam. They’re from a store called HEMA, which is like Target, but because it’s european, way better. Check out their fun site!

The linen-blend shorts were made last year and still fit. Comfy yet stylish, that’s the way we roll around here.

**P.S. For some reason, K insists on wearing band aids all the time. For months, I don’t think I’ve taken a single picture of her without one slapped on somewhere on her body.

Happy weekend, all!

I’ve been swimming in nostalgia these past few day I’ve been swimming in nostalgia these past few days, wading through my blog and Pinterest board of the clothes I made for K, who is not so little anymore. what a wild, fun time that was! Remember the old school days of sewing blogs?? I’m back in deadline mode for a number of projects so sewing will have to be put on hold (though maybe I’ll get lucky and sneak in some stitching time). I’m also putting Instagram on hold for the summer, as I do every year. I’ll be back in September with some exciting updates! Have a lovely season, my friends! 💙💙💙💙💙💙
