Summertime, and the livin' is easy..... Our small city garden has a lot of flowers. The pictures suggest we only have yellow blossoming ones, yellow loosestrife to be exact, but we also have a lot of red and pink roses, nasturtium (indian cress) in various colors, and this year, suddenly, a lot of ferns.
Just before summer finally began this year, I made some new summer wear. My newest production is a pair of trousers, made from a cotton fabric with very small blue stripes, so small that on the pictures the pants seem to be light blue.
This fabric was available in a fabric store we discovered when scouting the old centre of the small community of Breukelen, south of Amsterdam.
Located in a small street, the shop "De strekkende meter" (something like "the stretching meter"....) offers a nice selection of various fine fabrics and accessory supplies for people who like to sew there own clothes.
These pants have been cut as a jeans model, two front pockets, no money pocket, two back pockets with flaps, jeans buttons.
Guess I looked around enough in the garden, better go inside now, to do some cooking for tonight's dinner on the terrace.
The pictures in this post have been printed in a format such as years ago pictures came out of a Polaroid camera. A bit of nostalgia.....
