The HANA top was love at first sight when I first saw it. I quickly envision myself enjoying a long sunny walk in Paris, alongside the Seine and of course wearing this pretty top. Plus I don’t have a lot of blouses in my wardrobe and I definitely want to sew more blouses for…
Summer may be over, but with many of us still sheltering in place, clothing suitable for the home is a wardrobe necessity.

‘Nothing, ever, is worth closing your heart over.’ Michael A.

When I think of Christmas, I think of the smell of oranges, freshly baked Vanillekipferl (Austrian cookies coated in vanilla sugar) and of blown out candles. I think of the city that seems to sparkle with the festivity of Christmas lights and you can just about see every single snowflake illuminated. Christmas markets, where you…
