I told you that “grandma’s house” would be a recurring theme in the posts, but I didn’t imagine it would be so soon. Among the various things that emerged from the closets, still in their original box, I found this white linen double-size sheet. A gorgeous linen, or at least, the linen I immediately loved. […]
For a few months now, we’ve been clearing out my grandmother’s house. The house has been empty for years, but we hadn’t felt the need or desire to clear out the closets. It’s thanks to my grandmother that I started sewing; she owned the first machine I ever threaded and used, and hers were the […]
To be honest, this is a last year project, a Christmas present to be precise. I’ve read so much about all the features of silk (good for skin, hair, sleep…) that I’ve decided to make some pillowcase as present for my friends. It was not a tough project, even if sawing silk is not so […]

Because even though I’m in my forty I still love to write, I like to tell some of the things I do through texts and images, I like to think of this space as a sort of shared diary. A place where you can find some nice ideas for when you feel “stuck”, ideas that […]
This is an old project I found on a magazine long time ago, I work on it, changing something to finalize my personal version. +++ Trovate la versione in Italiano sotto 🇮🇹+++ It is a lovely part of our laundry room and could be a nice project for the home or a gift for a […]
As a promise is a promise. Here I am, posting again. And what a better subject for the first new post than one of my beloved baby blanket? +++ Trovate la versione in Italiano sotto 🇮🇹+++ This is something I really love to sew, this could be an easy project but also a challenging one […]
