I like to think about things. I also like to question things – sometimes just for the sake of it.
I nerd myself into some things. Other things I am extremely uninterested in.
I have also become a climate change aunt, despite mine so far, in the context, young age.
On this blog you can read most of what fits in my world of thought. From social criticism to beauty 40+ to embarrassing stories to…
Welcome! 🙂
renew the wardrobe
Think what a difference a new jacket can make to how you feel. Thanks to my body reacting the way it does to yoga, I've been walking around with oversized jackets (including) quite a while at this point. I have waited as long as I could before sewing new, but because i threw away… Read more
After over a year of yoga, my body has changed a lot. On a couple of occasions I have cleaned out my closet and got rid of a lot of old clothes that have become too big. I have sewn something new, but not very much. Though it's starting time – for the entire wardrobe.

Yes. I thought I would measure myself to start finding out what size I need for the clothes I will sew in the future. Since I have not bought clothes in a store for years for years, I wanted to check out how measurements correspond to sizes – especially when it comes to bras. Let… Read more
There are many disadvantages to having sickness benefits. Primarily; it's not very much money to begin with. When you also for some reason happen to mess with it, it gets even worse. If at the same time you need a larger amount of money to invest in something that is real, really needed, it will be very… Read more
The fact that my body is shrinking as a result of yoga has a devastating effect on the contents of my wardrobe. Last fall – long before I started my yoga, I cleaned out old clothes so that everything new I sewed would fit. Now it's time for another cleanup – out with old… Read more
I know I wrote a post about this just a few days ago, but quite seriously – I have a hard time letting go of things happening to my body at such a high speed as it does right now. I brought home a package with a new bra in what I was counting on… Read more
A little over a month ago, I ordered a pair of new bras at home (2-pack), because my old ones were getting too big. I have not used the new bras very much, because the cups are far too small (despite what I thought was the right size) and they do not sit very well around the back. Today I put on one,… Read more
A few years ago I was lucky enough to inherit some money. This allowed me to buy quite large amounts of fabric. Above all, I bought two basic fabrics in large quantities. I bought cotton jersey (black, of course) and a linen / viscose blend (also black) som jag har använt till nästan alla överdelar de senaste åren.… Read more
I've been doing this for about a year now, gradually, to renew my wardrobe. I have used about the same sewing pattern in many, many years. A few years ago I found the American pattern maker Tina Givens, and bought me a bunch of patterns from her. Framför allt ett av dessa mönster är en stor favorit… Read more
.. and tamejfan, every fucking year I need new summer clothes. Is not that strange – you think that what I sewed up last year should probably work now this year as well, but every year I sew up again. Mainly tank tops, because it kind of goes away. But this year I have a few others, for… Read more
