I definitely need to find another background. I love that kiwi tree though.

“The Ascension of St. Crawly”
We’ve been invaded by caterpillars lately, and this one seemed to be starting its own cult. I am glad I had my phone at hand.
Probably my best shot ever.

Happy Sunday y’all! I am having itchy feet at the moment. What’s your favourite destination? Why? Tell me all about it in the comments! ✈️🏖🎒 PS: Mine is Wales, but you knew that already! 🏴 #picoftheday #olympuspengeneration #olympus #olympuspen #globe #map #mappamundi #homedecor #travel #traveleurope #exploreeurope #traveltheworld #wherenext #ladytraveler #wanderlust #itchyfeet #voyage #igdaily #holidays #summer #Sunday #wales❤️
Here’s another one I like from the Seven Dwarfs skirt series.
Junior is not my cat. He’s not even a stray cat. He has a family of his own in the neighbourhood, but he and Virgule (our own cat) spend all their time together. He’s a bit like that kid from down the street who is annoying at first but then you get worried when you don’t see him for a couple of days.

The other day I was telling a friend of mine how disgusted I was with the methods of production of fast fashion, what with the exploitation of workers in developing countries (and here too, tbh) and the waste of resources and money generated by the fashion industry.
I was very surprised when she told me that she was trying to reduce her participation in the system (she’s quite the fashionista) by buying secondhand or making her own clothes whenever she could. I thought it was super cool.
I kept thinking about it until I came to the conclusion that I should give it a try too. That’s why, starting from September, I’ll only buy secondhand or sew my own clothes for a year (except underwear and sports clothes). It was all very nice to make that pledge, but I still had to up my game in terms of sewing. I have made a few skirts so far, and here’s one of them.
I bought the fabric from @veritaseu last year. The elastic waistband concept is simple enough that there was no way I could mess it up, and I even made pockets!
One thing you may not know about me is that I am not, in fact, a Disney fan (I know, shocking), but I still like the Seven Dwarfs pattern with the little white clouds.
If you feel like joining me in the One Year/No Buy Challenge, just use the #OYNB2K19 hashtag, tag me, or DM me.
Happy sewing/bargain hunting! 💜

The wisteria’s intricate patterns.
I am forever fascinated by the complexity of nature. We tend to see natural things as peaceful and gentle, but at their level, plants are waging a merciless war for survival and dominance. Also they’re pretty.
