Sunday, December 4

patiently impatient








coat - self made
dress - no name
lace trimmed slip - self made
heels - newyorker

i'm patient enough 
to spend hours solving sudokus
or digging up skeletons with a tiny brush
or sitting by the water with fishing rod
or going up and down the mountain 
..
patient enough to spend 7 full hours
making a coat
(plus a solid hour cutting out 54 tulle petals for rose brooch)
and then leave it button-less for days
cause i'm not that patient
when it comes to hand sewing buttons
or ironing hems
..
patient enough to kindly smile
when i got asked
why the hell do i wear a lettuce head
stuck on my coat
..

    I love your letacce head. And I adore this coat.

    I have a shirt dress I made almost a year ago that I've never worn because I've never made buttonholes on it because I don't want to. It would take ten minutes. It feels like too much work.

    LOVE THAT LETTUCE!! thats so funny! I was just thinking that I absolutely love the color combination of your whole ensemble! That little POP of green is stunning against your ravishing red hair!! @ least you finished your coat!! I haven't even printed out the pattern yet! LOL Did I say how glad I am that you're back?! :)

    You undoubtably have the most awesome collection of coloured tights. I'm loving these blue ones. And I loath sewing buttons on too. Lovely coat :)

    Čudovit plašč! Všeč mi je kontrastna podloga in to, da si opustila pas. :)

    Your colors are so beautiful, mokosha.

    The lettuce is yummy and so is your coat! Which pattern is it?
