Blood Moon September 27/28 2015 (photo)

Usually I would have overslept the blood moon.

Because I didn’t felt well and couldn’t sleep I read the news on the internet. I read about a blood moon and took a look out of my window.

The blood moon has been just at the beginning. I took my camera and made a few photos. I tried different iso settings. This photo is made with iso 6400. I didn’t used a tripod, but had a teleconverter to expand to 400mm. (I need a better teleconverter!!! Mine is a cheap no-name one )

Here is the photo with my first blood moon 🙂 The beginning of it I put on the left side. I think with a tripod and a better teleconverter the moon had been more sharp. But hey, I went from bed to taking photos hehe

Last week I made photos of fall on a rainy cold day. The photos looked like made on a graveyard – dark, depressing

Yesterday we had sunshine, it has been warm enough to just wear a shirt AND it has been weekend hehehe. I went to the same places like last week. See the difference?

My new photos I like very much. Colors like you expect with photos of fall

Since monday it is raining every day. Its depressing 😦

Today I went out with my camera to make photos. As you can see it wasnt my day to do so. It was cold, sun non existent, rainy and I has been tired. How I felt I saw later on my computer when I checked my new photos. It was funny when I opend photo by photo and all looked like the ones I show here. Most of them are dark, boring colors, without the typical colored fall photos.

Has it been the light outside? Or has it been me who havent seen the colorful side of fall?

I have to go out again to make photos when the rain will stop. But hey, it doesnt have to be always the perfect time for me to make photos. Even if I like my photos more colorful, more like a perfect  day photo, these photos show an other side of me.

Didnt knew it has been this long since my last post. I have been very busy.

I’m still going every saturday to my sewing course and I still love it sooooo much

Here a few photos of my last projects. I made the photos with matching chucks because I have a lot of them and I really like to wear them ❤ ❤ ❤

I dont know exactly how many chucks I have – over 30 for sure. My most important colors  I have in high and low hihi

My last project is a jacket I made last weekend. It looks soooo cool. The jersey inside is nautical as are the colors. My chucks too hehehe

But see for yourself

I made dresses for me too. ME with dresses !!!! Usually I wear jeans, shorts, but never dresses. But I found a pattern I really liked. Can you believe I searched over 2 months for the fabric? At the beginning I didnt knew what fabric I wanted, but whatever fabric I have seen I didnt liked for my dress.

But 2 months ago I went to a fabric market and at the end of the day I found it !!!! And I knew THIS fabric would be the first dress for me since ages LOL

Isnt this fabric cute ???? The buttons has been Brigid’s idea. Old fashion style hehehe

I liked my first dress this much that I made the next one with the same pattern.

I bought a bodice few months ago at ebay. I planned to wear it this summer. But it has been a little to short.

But when my first dress has been done, I have seen that my bodice has been only a few inches longer then the upper part of my dress. I decided to use it for my next dress.

I shorten the bodice, changed the buttons and put the skirt on it. Take a look how perfect my seam looks like ❤ The ribbon is only decoration. But I liked how it looked like with this dress.

As you can see the fabric ist nautical – again hehehe. See the cute buttons on the bodice? Found them on the internet.

Both dresses are the same pattern but because of the bodice I had to change the skirt.  This dress the skirt gets closed with buttons.

Over the last months I made a lot of shirts. But this two shirts are my favorites.

This fabric is a special one: one side is red with white stripes, the other side is blue with white stripes. The fabric is thin enough to wear it from spring to fall. I made one shirt with each color.
