He was at a friends house kind of the whole day so mommy got some work done. (pictures below) The colors are not correct though, I had no natural light to take the pictures in. Autumn and all that. Anyway, I hope a girl in Sweden will be happy and feel like a princess!

All patterns are from Puperita except the hat one!

But nothing I can do about the situation than to keep my chin up. So, I started clearing off my scraps that I have saved for… better days hehe. I can’t really sew when I have my son home, because I can’t hear him up to the 3rd floor. So cutting scraps it is. Well, it needs to be done so.. hehe.

Here they are! I have made the shirts and the print! I don’t sell the Olaf print, it is licensed.

My dad passed away after a year of cancer. So suddenly I had to find a way to get to Sweden, even though it was a pandemic. But I had some papers allowing me and Chris to go. We lived at my mums spare room, I got to say the last goodbye to my dad at the funeral.

But, I have also been up to things while staying inside and grieving. Sewing is AWESOME medicine!

And ofc… Getting FURIOUS at people trying to make a lot of money on people who wants mouth caps. 20!!! Euros for a mouth cap they way. Hell no. 3.50 I took for the materials for my friends. Since I am a company, I can’t give them for free 🙁 But I made 16 of them as requested from friends and need to make another 6 tomorrow or so for another friend.

Been planning and cutting fabrics and of course, having your kid at home, makes everything go a bit slower. But yeah, I do prefer being with him anyway hehe. But today I finally got to sew a bit. 2 finished items! One for my son and the other for his bestie. The shirts pattern is Swank T-shirt and the skit, butterfly skirt, both from Puperita.
