Sewing - Restart

Sewing and making craft work were hobby that I have long forgotten. After coming to europe, my previous crazy lifestyle of staying in office more than 12 hours everyday has come to an end. Reasonable work load and "No-need-to-work-in-weekend" now allowed me to restart on one of my many hobbies and hence have made this skirt. The fabric is bought from Singapore(an craft shop), which also sell beautiful japanese fabric, however this piece is from America. Due to my mind keep hanging over the japanese fabric I saw, I intuitively made this skirts into origami graphic. It was design, cut, sew, alter, cut and sew again kinda fun process. I am wishing now to continue to explore the fun of sewing cum designing with textile.

回到出发前的原点




旅行回来后的第二天,从地球的另一端来和我们一起过暑假(同时避开冬天)的老友今天往谁也憧憬的挪威出发后,家里突然安静了。

离开旅行的短短十来天好似完成了我上半个世纪没走完的一段路。离开的这十多天感觉似好长的一段时光,看得很多,吃得很好,睡得很够, 更是与四年没见的老友重温与相处得快乐不知时日过。

现在回到原点,顿了好一阵,想了好一会,还不大能整理出该从那一点回到出发前的生活, 是上网读电邮,读朋友的部落, 看flickr的update? 上载相片上flickr,还是先自己写一写东西放上部落? 又或许真的该开始立志履行旅程与老友让我感动的生活方式-- 多下田;多种花再加上天天如法国人般吃晚餐到十二点。
