It’s been a year since I last blogged. A year of changes and challenges. And now we are back in Germany, stationed at our old base for another three years. Our house is slowly looking more and more like home, I’ve met the neighbors and learned my way around the area, and my sewing studio is mostly up and running as well.
For the last few months, I’ve been sewing in my head – thinking about new dresses, petting what little stash I have left after last year’s great purge, and dreaming about new color combinations. Now that we’ve slowed down a bit, I will have time to really sew. I want to test some ideas about concepts from seasonal color theory, proportions, and style lines. Along with garment sewing, there will also be some home dec sewing as the new curtains need to be shortened, and some quilting (two quilts planned – one for my husband, the other for the guest bed).

Well, hey there, Alex. How are you? Are you finished with your nursing degree? Hope you’re happy back in Germany. Hope you’ll post some sewing when you can.
