Please be welcome in my beloved studio. This is the room where I welcome people for my workshops. I’m so proud of this place because it’s all made by me and my loved ones. Slowly new pieces been added to the place.

At the moment me and my dad are working on the metamorphosis of the next two chairs, the ones that are still brown in the picture. Yesterday I bought the fabric for the seating, and when they are finished they will be fresh and new and will sit much more comfortable.

I’m planning to start the new year with the launch of my new website, new workshops will be planned and the webshop will be up and running then….. I hope by saying it out loud like this, I will be extra motivated to achieve this deadline :-)

A while ago I bought those orange coloured chairs at the second hand store. It wasn’t quite my colour combination, but I could already picture what it should be when I saw them in the store.

Lucky me I’ve got such sweet and very handy parents, they did most of the painting and sanding job for me. The hardest part for me was to decide which fabrics to use for the seating. I love them very much now!

Tomorrow will be the first christmas decoration workshop, so I put a bit of christmas on the new window-sill in the atelier.

I thought I needed a challenge to try something new, so I submitted to the  In the Good Ol’ Summertime Mini Quilt Swap. My partner’s favourite colour is blue so that was something to start from with my design. I want to try a scrappy quilt with a panel where I can add a summer bird with applique or embroidery. I really like to try a crocheted edging, so I might add that as well to the binding. In the left picture you can see the fabrics I picked from my stash, they really look swimming pool blue, don’t you think?

At the right you can see a glimpse of my desk where I have my computer and where I can put up my sewing machine.
