the wedding from R. and S.
white dream
I was off for one week without my computer
till the last moments I was working on the weddingdress for my friend R.
it's a while ago that I sew Haute Couture like dresses
Satin - Vintage 50ies fabric from Switzerland
Lace - Guipure lace from Schläpfer St. Gallen
Jacket - raw silk from a collection from Veronique Branquinho
Bag - Boxcalf in white
the dress is inspired by the Sixties with a contemporary touch
different shades of white also here
the wedding was in Thun and Brienz in "Berner Oberland"

sheeps cloth
in May and June the sheeps have to get sheared
but nobody wants to have the black colored wool
normaly they throw it away
F. brought me one fleece of one black sheep
I washed it and want to use it for stuffing my cusions
it would be such a pitty to throw this fantastic material away
beautiful portraits of artisans from Hermès here
it's one of my dreams to work for Hermès

bread & try outs
with breadmaking it's just with every craftmanship
the results get better by making mistakes and improving myself
after another rye sourdough some weeks ago
I baked yesterday my first "Levain de campagne" bread
a white sourdough bread
and I'm really happy with the result
I couldn't resist to taste it this morning
it was actually a surprise for A. who will visit me for some days
...
Recently I tried out as well a japanese pastry
Azuki beans and ...
color was great but taste hm...
we gave it finally to the birds!
