Memory works in funny ways: to look at a sketch and feel - more than remember - the sun, sea, salt, warm breeze... that’s the super power of slowing down and pausing to notice what surrounds us.

How do you pause and notice what is around you?

I have a backlog of sketches in my #sketchbook to share with you. I paused all deadline work during my summer break, because I needed to rest after the intensity of our #Covid #confinement . But I kept sketching, and this is one of the moments I captured. My mom is sitting with her two youngest granddaughters (my children) on her lap. They moved and moved, being themselves, and this was what I managed to capture. ❤️

My older kid saw me sewing garments for me and immediately requested I sew her a dress, too. Thankfully @constancacabral recommended the book #sewchickids , which I immediately ordered. When it arrived, I told her she could pick one item, and she chose this pinafore. I went into a bit of a panic with the frills and the gathered effects. In the end, the instructions are very succinct but incredibly clear, and I learnt a lot in the process.

It took me several attempts to get the button holes right, but I’m glad I persevered.

In the end, she thought the dress was store bought, which, when it comes to handmade items, counts as a compliment in my book.

I can’t believe I’m going to write this but: here I am wearing shorts I sewed myself!

These photos were taken last month while we were on vacation and I hesitated before sharing them here. I am very, very shy, and I’m not very comfortable showing my face, etc etc, but these shorts were a huge accomplishment for me and I want to share it with you.

The details: pattern comes from @companhiadasagulhas and I started them there, in class with the great teacher @anaaqueladosoculos .

Fabric was a present from my sister @bausita and I was very keen on symmetry and how the pattern would lay out on the different pieces of the fabric. I can happily report that I am very satisfied with the result, so much so that I am wearing these shorts as I type this.

Now that I know that I can see clothes for myself, please excuse me because I have a few more pieces to make. 😜
