Spring Monday: How are you all doing today?

Dear users, dear authors,
are you doing well?
How was your weekend?
What’s the weather like?
Is your favorite meal on the menu?
Do you have any crafting goals or plans for the week?

Since switching my medication, I’ve been feeling much better.
Yesterday I sewed myself a blouse jacket, and today I’m making the matching top—tonight I’m knitting a little monster; the idea came to me yesterday afternoon.
Later, I want to cut out some new lingerie—I need something fresh and fun again :-)

You sew your own lingerie??? That sounds exciting.
  Would you like to post a photo of that blouse-style jacket here?
And I’m also curious to see your knitting project.

Since it’s Monday, my parents are here to play with Anton; I’m cooking food for him in advance and taking care of the housework. …

So, everything as usual. And tonight we’re having spinach lasagna. I’m curious to see how it turns out.

Here’s a small selection of lingerie I’ve sewn in the past: 2 panties, my swimsuit, and a bra

Wow, Akela, those look great! I’ve never dared to try projects like that—I’m (still far too) intimidated by stretchy fabrics.

Akela: Thank you so much for the photos. That’s really impressive. I’m thrilled. 

Oh, Akela, if only I could sew like that! I only dare to tackle very simple projects.

Girls, don’t worry about it—that used to be my job. I trained as a women’s ready-to-wear seamstress, i.e., an industrial seamstress, and also took a course in pattern drafting.

Wow, I’m really impressed too, Akela!

my little knitting monster was finished last night

How sweet.
