winter's last one

Summer heat inevitably came into town and
I still haven't presented you my last winter/ spring project:
A simpe blouse made to give colour to everyday life (aka working days).

And of course the word colour is strictly metaphorical,
is this beige-mauve really a colour??

For the oberservative ones:
yes, at last I have a real hanger on my wall for the photoshoots!!
No more searching the ground for the dropped nails...
The wall is of cement and it was impossible to hammer a nail all way through,
but with a drill at hand everything is possible!

And I am really happy to rediscover this bracelet from my childhood:

I think for those born in the 70s-80s it is a must.
Spotting something greenish inside the holes of the chain,
and after some days of wondering...,
I remembered how I loved pressing that chain onto play clay
to make various designs...aaahh...
I was a sweet quiet child indeed.
The plaster trapped into the holes is now petrified of course.
I don't think I will ever endeavour to remove it:
firstly, too much work
secondly, the traces of the past are ment to be kept!

In between, the first summer dress, hopefully the first of many to come,
is ready and already hangs in the closet, but you'll have to wait.
One thing at a time :o))
