I'm very melancholic these days, maybe because of the dark autumn..huh? I started to look at many of my old pics and think about the past a bit. Durring the last years my life changes a lot...moved to an other city to start with my studies, had my first flat share with a buddy from the Uni, had my own apartment, men came into my life and left me, lost my mom, finished my Uni and start to work...
Durring the last 5 years I changed my apartment more than 5 times...so I'm a pro in moving right now.
Not only my apartments changed a lot also my hairstyles. I still not found the perfect one for me....my head is big and I have only less hair. My mom told me that I looked like a bald head when I was little because my blonde hair was so thin ...like fairy hair.
That's me 1999 I think...it's easter and I found all my sweets and presents ;)
Finally Mimi is done. I started with Mimi more than a year ago but I never finished her. My spoiled dolls kept me busy the whole time. They asked or dresses, re-ment, shoes and a own house ;)
At the weekend I decided to finish Mimi...her whole body, arms and legs were already made a long time ago, so I just needed to finish her little face and outfit. And here she is ....
I have to say that Mimi helped me to discover my love for amigurumis again.I'm thinking of making one or two durring the next weeks. But what kind of animal would be perfect for my next one...a bear, a rabbit, a ct...or maybe a pig again...huh?
Little Mimi is up for adoption at my etsy now. So if you want to adopt her feel free to visit my shop ;)
...is my hometown Neuruppin. I moved to Neuruppin when I was 3 years old after my parents get divorced. Neuruppins is a very small town near Berlin with 30.000 inhabitants.
At the moment I live far away from my hometown in a bigger city called Göttingen. Since my mom died more than 2 1/2 years ago I haven't been there very often. We have no house or flat their anymore. My sisters left Neuruppin as well and both living in different towns far away from our home town. When I was young I always dreamed of leaving this little city to live in the wide world in a big town. But now I'm older and I already lived in different towns durring my time at uni and I get more and more sick of living in a bigger city.
I miss the beautiful landscape around my hometown, the friendly people, my old friends (I haven't seen most of them since several years) and of course our old house (which we had to sell after my mommy died).
I'm still full of hope to go back one day but in real I know this will impossible...my BF don't want to move in the east of germany and it will be also hard to find a good paid job in this part of germany....
So the only thing I can do is dreaming...looking at all pics and hoping to bbe able to visit Neuruppin always once every year.
....more than 1 1/2 year ago I started to learn sewing.It was a impulse decission while beeing bored at work. I bought a ugly sewing machine at evil bay a few minutes after I decided to learn sewing.It was a very cheap one and it was no fun to make my first human dress with this cheap machine. So I decided to get a better sewing machine and from this moment (march 2006) I never stoped sewing. I bought a serger to be much more professionell but since I stopped sewing human clothes I don't touch this machine very often.
Now I sew since more than 1 1/2 years and I still love it. I never visited a sewing class or anything else. I have all my sewing knowledge from book and sewing mags.
Sometimes I really miss the time when I made human clothes but sewing little things (like doll clothes and bags) is not so expensive and I don't need space for really big pieces of fabric. I still have a big box with fabrics which I bought to make human clothes out of it but now in the cellar because I never touched these since more than a year now.
Finally I decided to get a blog again. I have had a typepad craft blog month ago but I closed it finally. I was blogging (before moving to vox) for more than one year and I always loved it . But at the end I was to lazy to write daily or weekly so I gave it up.
One year later I really want to start blogging again...not daily or weekly...but hopefully much more often than before.
My blog will be again a little blog about my craft things and I will tell you a little bit more about me from time to time.
The blog should motivate me to try new crafty things, sew more other stuff than only dolly clothes and help me to bring myself out of my autumn depression...
I'm happy to be back finally...

Okay so I am jealous cause you only made one and she is already gone:( You have to make more!!... read more
