Spotted

Tahtsin midagi lihtsat väikese vimkaga. See kord oli selleks kergelt nihutatud kaelakaarega.
Täiesti uskumatu, aga see pluus on ennast õigustanud nii mitmeid kordi pärast selle valmistamist.

I wanted to make somethink very simple with a little twist. In this case - a slightly shifted neckline.
This blouse has justified itself so many times after I made it that it’s unbelievable.

A houndstooth check coat

      

Üks järjekordne kooli projekt, mis algas pimedal talvel lõigetest ja lõppes veel jahedal kevadel seljas.
Another school project that started in the darkest period of winter from patterns and ended up being worn in the cool spring.

From the inside:

breast pocket

placket

The coat also has two in-seam pockets.

kuidagi rahvariietest inspireeritud krae

 

Getting ready for the chills

Snoods.

Made one as white as snow. From 100% alpaka wool.

The other one black. From 80% alpaka wool, 20% silk.

For this snood I used a stitch from Vogue Knitting.

 

As I’m still waiting for the real snow, I found some pictures of last winter in the suburban district.

 

 

The view from our window.

 

Because I take most of my pictures with Zenit, I have to wait for half a year to see them. It could take less time but I just don’t take that much picures and a film usually holds 36 of them.

 

By the seaside with Hipi in Vääna-Jõesuu.

yellow mustard trousers

I’m finally finished with the first pair of trousers for myself!

The fabric was found from a grate in Kangadžungel. Someone had cut a piece from the middle of the fabric, leaving a hole from which you could stare through. It seemed quite odd but my heart was stolen by the colour of maple leaves in autumn. It works like quite a camouflage.

So I bought it. Secretly wishing someday they’d become trousers.

Since I didn’t have an overlock until today, I had to dress most of the seam allowances. It is a lot of work but I tend to see it as an opportunity to get better at seams that require precision.

I took my father and sisters camera and together we headed to a nearby park to make some pictures to post here.

Enjoy.

roostekarva kostüüm

Sügis käes ja emale selleks tarbeks kostüüm selga õmmeldud.

Muidugi mitte ainult sügiseks. Kandku, millal soovib. Aga värv on küll justkui sügiselt laenatud.

 

 

Selle kooliaasta alguses lükati meid pea ees ülerõivaste võimalusi täis maailma.

Suure villa sisaldusega kangaid otsides selgus, et see maailm polegi nii võimalusi täis. Ilmselt polnud kangapoed lihtsalt meie algavaks projektiks valmis. Tuli võtta, mis oli. Õnneks oli.

 

Ema valis üleni metallist nööbid. Varrukatel väiksemad, jaki esikinnisel ja seelikul natukene suuremad.

 

Vooder oleks nagu pronksist. Aga tegelikult ei ole. Viskoosist hoopis.
