Swimsuit Cover-up

This is my latest craft project:

It's a wrap around swimsuit coverup.

Here is the back.
It is made out of a sheer-ish synthetic fabric that I found in the discount section of my local fabric store. This is the first of many sewing projects I think.

Blazer Outfit

This is an outfit I wore to try to go to the fabric shop. It was an unsuccessful trip as the shop was shut for siesta.

Black blazer, white tube top with flowers (H&M) skinny white belt, grey skinny 'Leigh' jeans(topshop) white wool kilt socks, black laceup boots (Topshop). I am also wearing a cool cloche hat.

Watchband Re-covering


I was given this watch, but I didn't really like the band. It was a light purple snake skin. Since the face is nice, and the bracelet fit well, I decided to recover it.

I used leather, and sewed it onto the watch.

Here's the finished product

Mending

I spent most of today doing this pile of mending! As soon as I finished, I was handed another pair of jeans to do. :(

Lavapies

I live in a part of Madrid called lavapies. It's not pronounced live Lava-pies, but It always make me think it is. I made this in Minecraft in honour of Lavapies.

According to the fruit, spring is here!

At the supermarket today I found fresh local strawberries! I guess spring must be here! Unfortunately it is very chilly out, and much of Europe has been snowed on. At least the strawberries are good!
