I was just curious as to why you had to wear black all the time, hope you don't hold grudges for too long!!! As for myself, I am a slave in a multinational working in marketing for 50 hours a week (so much for the industrial revolution!) and have very little time left to learn to sew (or anything else for that matter...). Just to let you know I have been to Ribes i Casals and almost pass out of happiness, I spent a small fortune (a total of 33 euros!) and have now lots of projects to complete. Hope to keep in touch.

So SSS is famous! But I can't find her blog ... if anyone has info please let me know!

It's been a challenge because I'm still relatively new to sewing and only have so many things in heavy rotation, but I've been having fun with it. Sure, a lot of pieces I've worn to death this month, but it's also been so nice to wear something handmade every day. :)amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12029076436322883513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2464662522153586853.post-91048878385739734122010-09-24T10:51:11.579+01:002010-09-24T10:51:11.579+01:00I love your sailor trousers - nautical but nice!I love your sailor trousers - nautical but nice!Drop Stitches Not Bombshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14995132303908748751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2464662522153586853.post-81117178685666173242010-09-24T08:07:27.565+01:002010-09-24T08:07:27.565+01:00Hi Zoe

I wanted to aks where did you get your fabric here, all I know is the expensive shops that I can afford specially for begginers' projects.

I constantly have that debate with myself whether or not I should use black (or blue, say) as a basic, esp. since black feels so formal and I live in pretty temperate climates. But seeing you reminds me that black goes a long, long way. It pretty much always looks fabulous. Great new pieces! :)Alihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15575104493258544397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2464662522153586853.post-57075004254324767622010-09-23T19:33:47.996+01:002010-09-23T19:33:47.996+01:00Looks like you're settling in to your new life...Looks like you're settling in to your new life with aplomb! Can't believe the mileage that you're getting out of your few black pieces ... guess that's truly a testament to how little we need to make our wardrobes work! And the S3835 top looks like it integrates perfectly :-). Those sleeves ARE too tight, love your mods!jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14891339427334605978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2464662522153586853.post-41753414216641850562010-09-22T18:07:14.729+01:002010-09-22T18:07:14.729+01:00It's kind of funny that you run into the same ...It's kind of funny that you run into the same problems making pictures after work as I do. Even though my toughest days are only 9 houres long... I found it best to make the pic in the morning just before leaving the house. The light isn't any better than in the evening but I feel and look better a lot. Also black is a hard colour to photograph anyway as details just get swallowed.<br />I'm looking forward to more inspiring pictures. :)christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18084668122322535968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2464662522153586853.post-9299541504899413732010-09-22T17:10:42.627+01:002010-09-22T17:10:42.627+01:00Love your style!
