Hope and Dreams (5)

 (click on image to enlarge)


In Poetry in blue I promised to tell you all about this piece and earlier this week I showed you the pictures in this collage.  I have to admit this is not way I'm gonna use Hope and dreams, as you might have guessed because of the name. The inspiration for this piece came from the work of two special ladies. The first one is ms Karen Ruane, who makes the most exquiste pockets in her very special pieces. The second lady is the one and only Julie, who on the 9th of September 2009 wrote for the first time line: Writing is the new praying. 



Hope and dreams will be used as a throw while I'm in my favorite chair jotting down ideas, writing down thoughts and some magic might happen when I slip a note into one of the special pockets.


“Somewhere over the rainbow,
 skies are blue, and the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true”  

 Lyman Frank Baum


Have a great weekend forfilling all your own dreams.

Hope and Dreams (4)

Today's post is about the fruits of unseaming. In Celebrating my love for blue I already showed you some of the gifts. The holes made by the previous threads are still visible. Unseaming is like digging deep in and revealing the beauty of what once was. 

What kind of excavation would you like to be on?

Hope and Dreams (3)

The collage of today shows you some special features. The top picture on the left shows you a part of the back. On the waistband of the Levi's with the red button was a pocket, which I used to write on my initials, here you can also see the fantastic red lining of that waistband too. The rest of the pictures more or less speak for themselves.

Have a wonderful day filled with beautiful details.

Hope and Dreams (2)

In the collage you can see that not a single part of a denim is wasted. These four waist bands together are the border of Hope and dreams. My favorite button is the red one of an old pair of Levi's.

What is yours?

Monday's music

Blue, blue and a little bit more blue. My days and nights are filled with this color and while working I hear this song over and over again.





Have a fantastic start of your blue monday.
