My photo blog

I was very busy today: apart from the usual shopping, cooking, eating, washing up, I also did dressmaking (la couture).



I made myself a blue and white dress (une robe) with some African material (tissu).The dress is very simple, just straight up and down (droit) as the pattern (le motif) is very complicated but very effective and dramatic.
In the photo you can see the sewing machine, scissors, pins and a reel (une bobine) of white cotton, and the blue and white dress material of course. I was very pleased with the result and put it on immediately.
