this is your life...

 
 

This is a brief interruption from my regular posts to explain what i do here…

 
 

There is a bigger project in play but i will explain that in due time as it is long and slightly complicated, more importantly i don’t really know how to explain what it is at the moment (obviously the ‘ma maison’ tab on this site is a major hint, but not quite the full story)


Most of what you will see here are small projects that I am working on or have completed, as an updated letter to mother (who is moving half way across the world) a little bit of my life in general such as food, shopping, adventures, ideas and generally whatever takes my fancy.

i enjoy testing theory’s about the ideas I have for home and wardrobe while learning new things which are outside of my wheel house and In principal i love my sewing projects.

people are always encouraging me to reproduce and sell my sewing projects and in the past i have dabbled with online sites and boutique stores but i usually stick to personal commission projects where i can work with a client and develop something new.

truthfully I never really enjoyed reproducing things for online and boutique stores, which is probably why i was never truly committed and it did not work, so in the wake of planning the bigger project (updates coming soon) and after an extended chat and a lazy saturday morning perusing the internet, i found some words to live and die by…

 

 

‘this is your life. do what you love, and do it often. if you don’t like something change it. if you don’t like your job quit. if you don’t have enough time, stop watching tv. stop over analysing, life is simple. all emotions are beautiful. when you eat appreciate every last bite. open your mind, arms and heart to new things and people, we are united in our differences. some opportunities only come once, seize them. life is short, live your dream and wear your passion’.
