Sewing Project

Recently, all of my zippered pouches that I use for various things broke. But the internet is full of wonderful tutorials- these are some that I really like.

I ordered some colourful zippers yesterday from ebay, so there's no excuse anymore to not get started on some of these pretties!

Weather forecast

This is exactly what it looks like outside my window right now... But there's hope for tomorrow:
Get your own weather from Kurt Riedi. Such a brilliant idea! First seen on this lovely blog.

London










I spent a few days in London, visiting a friend. We spent most of the time talking and partying but i did get to spend some time at these wonderful Museums: Saatchi Gallery, The British Museum, Tate Modern- where I saw the Sunflower Seed Installation by Ai Wei Wei.

April flowers


I am a bit late posting these... the flowers are long gone from the trees. But in April all the parks here in Vienna were a sea of beautiful pink flowers... the little vase and the swallow are from Paula Valentim at otchipotchi.
