And as you can see, I&#8217;m not alone. Jade was born as expected in February 2019. She&#8217;s a very interesting little girl. I&#8217;m still sewing just as much, including for her (we always find time for things\/people that are dear to us&#8230;) even if my sewing sessions are very segmented. For 2 years now my creative interests have expanded: I&#8217;m learning to decorate our home, I&#8217;m doing creative baking, and I&#8217;m sourcing second-hand clothing and furniture. Indeed, I&#8217;m increasingly aware of the impact of overconsumption on our environment, on people, and on a smaller scale: on our personal and family budget. I started sharing my new approach to these topics on Instagram, and from now on I&#8217;ll also talk about it here on this blog. Also in terms of news here: I&#8217;m launching my creative brand of textile applications with messages (labels) in a few weeks. I absolutely wanted to share this with you so that you don&#8217;t miss anything about this new adventure. In any case, I&#8217;m really happy to reconnect with you.

I don&#8217;t know how to express in this letter the mix of emotions I am feeling right now as I write these lines. It&#8217;s a bit confusing as I am moved, excited, happy, and at the same time super ashamed. Ashamed because, let&#8217;s say it clearly: I abandoned my blog during my pregnancy (even if I stayed active on social media). In my last blog posts, I was promising to show you my pregnancy looks. However soon after sharing one OOTD or two, I started feeling extremely tired and not at ease in my body. At that same time I was co-supervising renovations that were taking place in our new home.

Here I am and as you can see I am not alone. Jade was born in February 2019 and she is a very interesting little girl.

For 2 years now my creative interests have evolved: I&#8217;m very interested in home staging, I&#8217;ve started creative baking, and I source for second-hand clothing and furniture. I have been quite concerned lately about the impact of massive consumption on our environment, on its people, and on a lower scale: consequences on our personal finances. I lately started sharing some ideas on this topic on Instagram, and will now be able to share here as well. Also in other news: I am launching in a few days, an online creative brand of textile applications (labels) with positive messages and stylish vibes, designed specially for makers. I absolutely wanted to share this news with you so that you don&#8217;t miss anything and are able to take part in this new adventure as well.
