year seven

this year is having such a lazy start

that i almost forgot to write my yearly round up post

but here it is, couple of days late..

in year seven since i started sharing my sewing over this blog

i made my favorite piece of clothing ever

and discovered i can sew and rock a pair of skinny jeans

(kinda got late to that party.. 

at this pace, i'll get to sewing my first culottes

some time around 2026th)

i've also made couple of dresses for myself

  

but frankly, i spent most of the time

sewing clothes for other people..

which is totally fine

as i don't really need any more clothes

but i do love sewing

so this way i can keep doing it

without making my closet burst

  

made bunch of blazers, of course

i never seem to get tired of this oversized blazer pattern

but made everything else too

(was lazy to look for pics of the swimsuits

but i've made more than 20 of them past summer)

also, together with nikola (aka my husband)

i've made bunch of backpacks..

they're pretty much all i've been sewing past couple months

as i haven't really been productive..

but i hope to change that real soon

oh.. made a few bags too

almost forgot about those..

this one is my favorite

other than sewing

i've been knitting a bit..

finished one blouse (no good pics of it)

and couple hats..

started working on stonecutter pullover

by brooklyn tweed..

i loved knitting it, and finished front pretty fast

only to realize i won't have enough yarn

and there is no way i can find that particular colorway again

so.. yeah..

been pretty bummed about it for some time

but.. it is what it is

..

bought new yarn, in brick red color

and i bought a lot of it :)

so i'll try again, eventually..

 hope i'll be able to frog my previous try

and use that gorgeous yarn for something else

other than that

i've been baking a lot..

so we ate a ton khachapuri

and my sourdough bread baking has improved a lot

we've traveled to our very belated honeymoon to georgia

and climbed mount kazbek

although i only reached 4800m

(summit is at 5033m)

but it was a great adventure nonetheless

i fell in love with city of tbilisi

also, we climbed some mountains in herzegovina

and in december i visited zagreb with my girlfriends

and had the most amazing time

all in all, it's  been a good year..

now, lets try making next one even better
