DIY A very very colorful super fluffy jumpsuit for at home

Posted on April 8, 2024 by justelly1

I actually wanted to post my last project before Easter, but I forgot.
This weekend I finally got around to taking the photos.
I didn’t sew the jumpsuit at home, but in a sewing class, because anyone who has ever cut and sewn fleece knows that you will find fluff EVERYWHERE afterwards! 😀

A bit mean, but I helped the sewing teacher to get rid of all the fluff with the vacuum cleaner.

I’m one of those women who is always freezing. So if you’re sitting at the sewing machine or at the table for a long time, for example, you don’t want to do that with a warm blanket. It restricts your movement.
But fleece is the perfect solution. It’s super soft, comfortable to wear and keeps you nice and warm.

Simply perfect for at home. Of course I would never leave the house in it 😀 but I didn’t plan it for that.
At the moment I’m already working on the 2nd jumpsuit so that I can always change in winter ❤

And here is my super colorful soft jumpsuit. I made it in the largest size so that I have plenty of space to move in it.

Happy Easter 2024 :)

I actually wanted to show my last project, which was finished on Tuesday, here.
But I forgot to take photos 😦

Anyway. Have a Happy Easter ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤

Let it snow …

Wasn’t it just the New Year’s fireworks? 😀
The first half month is already over. Somehow time is racing…

Winter has now arrived here too. Temperatures around freezing point, snow.
I may be a summer person who likes warmth, sunshine and bright colors, but new snow is also visually fascinating to me.

The roads no longer look pretty with the snow, but the bushes were still untouched and beautiful ❤

Tomorrow my favorite sewing course starts again this year.
I hope my last project will be finished by then.
I think everyone who sews something elaborate that takes so long gets to the point where they can’t see the project anymore. I already reached that point last year 😀

Happy New Year 2024

Welcome to the new year 2024.

This time the fireworks were very short. People set off more firecrackers than fireworks. Sucks if you want to take photos. Hehe
But I did manage to get a few pictures.

I wish
A Happy New Year ❤ ❤ ❤

Merry Christmas 2023

Posted on December 24, 2023 by justelly1

The year is almost over and so much has happened.
I already wrote that “my” fabric store, where I had my sewing course, is closing.
We were really lucky that a man who wanted to buy some of the furniture and sewing machines for his wife found out that these sewing courses were available.
His wife is also a hobby sewer. He made a studio for her where she can sew in the evenings. During the day, he rents out the studio for sewing courses. Win-win decision 😀

The course takes place with our old teacher and the other hobby sewers have all been taken from the old store. I am really happy about this solution.

I didn’t manage many projects. I made a yellow rain jacket for a friend similar to the one I made for myself. That was very time-consuming.
I’m currently sewing a windbreaker but, as always with me, it’s taking longer than I’d hoped. Somehow I always think of things during the sewing project that I want to have differently or in addition. Hehe

I had sooooo many plans for sewing Christmas presents and what happens? My machine breaks down 😦 Unfortunately, there is no longer a dealer here in town who can repair my brand. The dealer in the next town said he had so many orders that I didn’t even need to bring my machine in this year. Crap!!!

In August I had corona for the 2nd time this year. But luckily it was only like a very mild cold.

All in all, it was finally a good year for me again.
When my sewing machine is repaired next year, I finally want to sew more for myself at home. Apart from the windbreaker, ALL the projects I made were for other people 😀

I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year ❤

Happy Easter 2023

Posted on April 8, 2023 by justelly1

Where has the time gone? Just a moment ago it was Christmas and New Year!
Actually, I wanted to go out for photos and make beautiful photos for Easter, but somehow I’m still not 100% fit after Corona. Therefore, I took photos with my phone the day before yesterday after my shopping.

My news at the moment is that my fabric store is no more. I am extremely sad about that. Good news is that our sewing group including the seamstress have found a new way to sew together on Saturdays. Unfortunately the course costs twice as much as before. 😦
Let’s see how we will like it in the new store. Next week Saturday the new course should start. Of course I have again lots of ideas what I could sew and where I do not know how I could do it myself.

Happy Easter ❤ ❤ ❤

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2022

Yes, I know, I have not been in touch for ages.
Has anything changed for me this year? Not much, except that one colleague has quit and the rest who still work in the lab are under extreme stress. Especially because everyone who had Corona also had to stay at home for 7 days, regardless of whether they had symptoms or not.
So it comes that I have less energy after work to play or to do my hobby sewing.
Since a few weeks we finally have a new employee. Sure, he has to be trained first, but after that it should get easier. Especially since we no longer have to stay at home when we have Corona without symptoms. A mask that has to be worn then should protect the other colleagues.
Did I sew again? Yes, some things. I’ll have to take pictures of them so I can show them here.

But above all a wonderful Christmas to all and Happy New Year

Happy Easter 2021

Posted on April 3, 2021 by justelly1

Has it really been a year since the world stood still?
That people had to stay at home on Easter? That life was no longer as we knew it?

I see pictures from Israel or the United States or even England, where people can come together again, where life is getting back to normal and I am happy.

I can’t wait to get an OK for the vaccination. After an allergy shock during a flu shot, I first have to be tested to see if I can tolerate the vaccine and get it. Unfortunately, this takes time.

My Easter greetings come today from home. I actually wanted to go out to the meadow and take pictures like last year. But unfortunately, the warm days, where the daisies are everywhere to see, came only a few days ago. No daisies to see. Yesterday I passed my park and saw some sporadically. But by then I had already taken the photos.

If you like the photos, you are welcome to use them as Easter greetings ❤ ❤ ❤ (Of course only for non-commercial use)

Stay healthy
