Yes it is true the mood for sewing is not there on everyday, especially not when it is really hot and you do not want to move at all! nonetheless I did sew up some things and now I will show you all of them in one post:

This one is a Trenchcoat I bought from ebay. I took in the sides, removed the shoulder plakets, lengthened the arms. And now I think it is okay, not brilliant work, but okay.
This is a skirt of my mum. It was a bit wide for her, so I took it in about one inch on each side. Very easy and very boring. but that were the Things I wanted to get done in this month!
This skirt I bought somewhere on sale, but it was too big and I did not really liked the idea of taking it in and wearing it as a skirt, so I just chopped it off, hemmed the raw edge and now -voila- I have a circle shawl! This way I like the paisley print.
This is the new released Burdastyle shrug, which is really easy to make, it took about one hour from beginning to end! Really nice!
This is a cardigan I had in my stash, but it was really oldfashioned ( and not on the cool vintage way). So I chopped it off to make a bolero from it. Then I shortened the arms. I am not shure whether I like it... Somehow it looks like chopped off, a style I do not really like... But I don`t know any way to change this, Has anyone ideas concerning this?
And this one began his life as to short and very baggy knit pants. Now I have some great pants for my Gym class. I already wore them today!
Sorry for the picture heavy post!
