The past weekends I've been sewing curtains for my living room and it almost done. All there is left to do this weekends is french plate lace day curtain. Actually there are only two windows but the length is overwhelmed me... I'm very slow with measuring and cutting. I want it to be precised and perfect although the end result is not necessary perfect... :)Maybe I was trained that way. Things don't just happen, it has to be conceptualized, sketched, measured, dreamed a bit, put in drawings and plans, and executed. While I was cutting the fabric, I stepped back so many times... Sewing is a therapautic hobby that I want to savour yet I am concious of time I wasted... so I always stressed out that so many projects I wanted to do were not done as planned. That might be the reason I dislike taking sewing order from other people.
I planned to change the curtains five months ago during the semester break but had no idea what the color and design would be. When I first moved into my home six years ago, I went for cooling and calm effect for my living room to counter the scorching hot sun of the outside. Light apple green seemed to be the answer and I still love the color. However, this time I wanted to go for something edgy and clean yet still maintain the original concept. So a few months ago, I choose dark grey and white. I picked IKEA fabric which seems affordable to me compare to others.
I'm loving grey and yellow at the moment...
