The word Kermesse may mean festival or fair. I decided to use it for this blog, since here I would present a festival of crafts and arts done by myself... and 365 refers to the number of days in a year. The idea started churning in my mind when I came across http://makesomething365.blogspot.com/. The main concept of my blog is to show a piece of art or some craft on a daily basis for 365 days. Some of them I’m well familiar with, while others are completely new. Hope you’ll enjoy this year long journey and feel free to leave any comments.

Day 50 Bucket or sun hat pattern cut-out

I wanted to do a hat for my little one, and searching the internet gives great results :-)
This is the pattern cut-out. I didn't know I liked sewing so much. It's like creating something out-of nearly nothing and the fact that I made it gives me joy.
I have to get better at it and try to be more patient as sometimes I tend to rush through it and the results aren't that satisfactory!




See ya & have a lovely week x

Day 45 Teddy Bear pattern

This teddy bear is intended for my baby and believe it or not I have had the paper pattern enlarged and cut-out & all necessary material when I was still pregnant. My baby is now past 10 months and I am finally working on the teddy bear. This is just the fabric - sort of fleecy - cut out from the pattern... so yet another WIP. I'll continue working on it till I finish it, cause I'm really looking forward :-)


More tomorrow... xxx

Day 36 High-chair Cushion Pattern

The changing of the clock to summer time not only brought an hour less (yep I overslept ;-P) but also an incredibly beautiful day calling you outside to get a dose of Vitamin D! So I didn't have much time to be creative. Time... always less and less.

I need to do a cushion for my son's high-chair. The one supplied isn't exactly what I expected. I sat down and sketched a pattern.


The pieces in blue is where the harness goes. Now, I need to get the measurements right and accurate, some material and buckles for the harness. I have not decided on the material yet - if I'll buy the Dacron separate or get some proper quilted material. Maybe I'll opt for the latter option, seems more practical.

Night and sweet dreams x
