Can you imagine that this is NEON PINK irl?

Here you are something loud: a zebra skirt! Made out of African wax, the fabric looks almost waterproof, but the seams aren't sealed, so the skirt itself it's not really water resistant BUT! it's so freaking cool. On the back there's a black elastic waistband so it's suitable for both a size M and a size L. But I can make one made to measure just for you. 60€ plus shipping basically everywhere. More questions? Here I am!

Apple cake

My problem with cooking -expecially baking- is that when I start I never want to stop. But oh boy, these are quite some calories.
A little bit burnt at the bottom but so fluffy

I think during my whole life I've sewn for sure more than 1000 different pieces of clothing -maybe something like 1500, but I'm not sure- and sewing so many things left me with A LOT of scraps.

This was an attempt at using smaller fabric pieces: a patchwork cardigan which I imagined genderless. If you like it I can ship basically everywhere. The price is 90€ plus shipping. More questions? Here I am!

Lovely Fediverse, this is what I used to do for a living: sewing stuff, even upcycling fabrics before it was cool. Then, after a bad burnout, I started travelling, cultivating and, in the end, a totally different job, which right now I've lost -thank you capitalism-. So I'm slowly taking sewing back. These are some pictures of some scarves and neckwarmer I made two years ago: if you would like something similar I can do it! The one with the dalmatians is still available.

That's it, everything's already in the title.
But as a fun fact I can add that in the last two years I've become basically unable to eat fruit or vegetables if I don't know their origin.
And then there's marshmallow cream, yeah.

Some pictures I took yesterday. Finally away from home, in a place I've never been before. I always feel so much better exploring unknown places.

So, my father has died less than a month ago. I didn't have that much of a bond/relationship with him, so I could have never imagined that I would have been suffering this much (sorry for the consecutio temporum here, English is not my first language). I'm trying to mitigate my sadness creating clothes, and this jacket is black and white like my heart right now. I spent quite some time on it, trying to make it precious, taking care of my feelings.

Right now I've started making dresses that "look like me", just to tell a story. Something like a self-portrait, but made from fabric. Well, the first tattoo I got was a woman's head with a peacock on top, so when I saw these appliques I knew I had to have them.
This dress it's entirely handmade, you can wear it both with and without a belt (this particular belt doesn't come with the dress), it fits a L/XL size range. I can basically ship everywhere. More questions? I'm here!

After a whole lot of time, more #UnprofessionalPictures! Yeah, I know, you didn't miss them, but I kinda like these two, so here we are. I made this dress myself for the wedding of an old friend of mine: I was her one of her bridesmaids so I was supposed to dress nicely. While partying I found the "lightsaber" and the Stormtrooper's mask and I asked my husband to take some silly pictures of my and my dress.
I needed 4 days of work and 3mt of shantung silk in order to make this dress.
