Seems like forever…

May 6, 2013 by Alexandra - 5 Comments

Sewing studio

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).

I’m Alexandra; Alex for short. I streamline and right-size everything from wardrobe to social commitments in order to craft a peaceful happy life. I’m always working on a sewing or polymer project and have recently bought my first cutting machine. Follow along on my adventures and let me know what you think.
