Brocki again

Sorry, this entry is only available in Deutsch.

Apple love

Some days ago I was at the thrift shop (Brocki) AGAIN. I should not go because I always find something beautiful and cheap but our apartement’s space is very limited. This time  I found colourful apple stuff only. A boule, a tin, a matching tablett and a wrapping paper still in its original packageing - yay!! It was only 6 CHF which is about 4 €.

Because of these finds I had the idea to make my own apple pattern. It was important to me to keep it retro but with my note. Therefore I arranged the apples in the same system as my heart patterns.

Hornsea

Last weekend i found a couple of chicken Hornsea mugs in the thrift shop (Brocki) - i would not call myself a collector YET but i really do want to have more of them. They were designed by John Clappison. I love the way he designes animals, they are always cute and adorably simple.

Beautiful packageing part II

I bought a patience card set at the “Brockenhaus” the other day and when i counted the cards i realized that one part was still in its original package. I was so happy about this find - i guess i will never unravel it!

Bernina part 2

Yesterday i sewed with the old “Bernina Standard 125 S” for the first time. I tried to find out how old she is, but didn’t find anything with google. I oiled it and started sewing my felt pouches but it is kind of hard to get used to the knee- thingy instead of a pedal. … Sorry for my english, i don’t even know the exact german words and now i try to describe it in english! And i always had to start using the hand wheel or it would sew too fast. D. asked why i don’t use the new one, but I WANT to sew with this one!!

Oh, in the background of the pictures you see… THE WINDOWS!! So the horrible rebuilding time is almost over! Studio is still a dirty mess and i guess we need a week to clean up and paint the walls. But at least there is light again :)))
