This post is a wee bit late, but I didn´t have time until now to get somewhat decent pictures for this. I have been finishing off some stuff I have wanted to make for a long time, and I have made some stuff just for the fun of it! First and foremost: I have finally finished my swimsuit. This was originally a part of the Summer Essentials Sew-Along. The first version of this turned out too small, as the fabric I used didn´t have the same stretch as my muslin. you live and learn! The pattern for this is based on a pattern from patternschool.com. If you´re not familiar…
Read MoreI love word games and puns. And I especially love to make new words out of two existing ones. Might be a teeny-tiny bit dorky, but hey – that is just the way I am… Take the words spring and inspiration.

I don´t know how it is everywhere else in the world, but here in Sweden you can become a member of hmclub, a bonus shopping program if you´re a regular shopper at H&M stores. Today, in my mailbox I found a letter from hmclub. It contained information about my shopping at H&M last year.

Now, you don´t have to feel sorry for me, because it´s all my own fault, not working out as I know I should. đ But, as part of my new and better life, I want to keep you updated on what I´ve been doing the last month.

 Hi there! I´m Sølvi Elise. Welcome to my little corner of the Internet. This is a space where I share my craft projects and thoughts and ideas concerning handmade in a consumerist world.
I live in Oslo, Norway where I use my spare time stitching up my own wardrobe. So far, I´d say that 80 % of my closet is filled with me-mades. I also have an interest in historical sewing, embroidery, knitting, crochet, leatherwork, tablet weaving, rigid heddle loom- weaving, cocktails, jewelry making, makramÊ, shoe making, drawing, paper craft, machine knitting and generally any craft that looks like fun.
