It will definitely take a while to adjust once we have to go back. Those roses are gorgeous!! The vest made of individual crocheted flowers sewn together is really cool - too bad the instructions are so complicated.Forest City Fashionistahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04428940427287921203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6475787762104502863.post-32213315947516305102020-05-27T08:39:13.372+02:002020-05-27T08:39:13.372+02:00I also meant to say that like you i'm in no hu...I also meant to say that like you i'm in no hurry,to get to a terrace, I'm quite happy having my coffee and food at home, it just feels safer somehow.

Y un par de ellas las he comprado: Una es de 1973 y muy parecida a la que nos muestras, la encontré en un mercadillo de segunda mano en Murcia. La otra de 1948 la encontré en una cafetería-tienda de segunda mano el verano pasado en Edimburgo.<br />Respecto a los chalecos creo que fijándote en las fotos puedes sacar el patrón. En cualquier caso puedes encontrar gráficos de flores parecidos a esos en internet y darle un toque aún más personal.<br />Saludos.ANA MARIAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17780901272817446489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6475787762104502863.post-17900966860371131112020-05-25T10:12:25.712+02:002020-05-25T10:12:25.712+02:00My Mum's wardrobe is a neverending source of i...My Mum's wardrobe is a neverending source of incredible stuff!, I'd love to raid it even if my size is so much bigger than hers!.<br />Glad you liked roses, I'm happy that city gardens are so well-kept, we have massive parks but also small flower beds in every square. <br />And your comment on my homemade tapas is making me feel proud!Señora Allnuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01403540346998939207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6475787762104502863.post-72796333786777220622020-05-25T10:05:01.267+02:002020-05-25T10:05:01.267+02:00Glad you like these crochet outfits and totally ag...Glad you like these crochet outfits and totally agree that detailed tutorials and videos have spoilt us!, the instruction booklets were really annoying!<br />My 'gangster coat' always receives some comments, even if my coworkers are used to me looking 'slightly different'. ;DDD<br />Thank you for your comment!Señora Allnuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01403540346998939207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6475787762104502863.post-77668061959370502802020-05-25T09:53:12.004+02:002020-05-25T09:53:12.004+02:00It has been lovely to see people again, even if we...It has been lovely to see people again, even if we're talking each other at a safe distance.

And totally agree about the hand sanitizing and desingfecting keyboards, mouses and knobs, which makes me feel I'm a paranoid.<br />Pubs and restaurants are still closed, but some terraces are allowed to open and people have run to have a coffee/beer as if it was a matter of life or death. I think it's too early for these activities but tourism is such an important industry here!. And pubs and restaurants will open soon, but also swimming pools and beaches!. Not really sensible!<br />besosSeñora Allnuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01403540346998939207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6475787762104502863.post-81799942782393267042020-05-24T12:50:47.102+02:002020-05-24T12:50:47.102+02:00I love the crochet patterns, seriously groovy!

Your Mum must have some incredible stuff stashed away!<br />You look amazing in that pinstriped coat, such a great contrast with the jungle trousers.<br />Those roses are beautiful, English municipal planting is never that lovely.

That's the kind of stuff I'm working on now in my office. However, seeing people again? Ah, I can't wait! I miss people so much! It'll be a month before my office is open to people coming back, and my island (Victoria is on the tip of Vancouver Island, off the west coast of Canada) has ONE active case of COVID, and has had only 5 deaths total - we are nearly ready to re-open here. <br /><br />I love your bright outfit (that's one of my favourite coats of yours), and I can practically smell those roses! I am in love with those funky vests! I bet I could wing that pattern...it doesn't look too hard. I should dig out my wool box and crochet hooks! Thanks for the inspiration!

I'm usually on my own on my two office days, but saw my colleague on Wednesday, as she came in that day instead of Thursday which was a public holiday. No problems with social distancing but the constant hand sanitizing is driving me crazy sometimes. As is disinfecting door knobs Etc. after a courier has been to the office. Even though all our shops have opened, all pubs and restaurants remain closed. Have they opened at all in Spain? Love your outfit, the city roses and your Mum's vintage magazines! Those crochet vests are divine! Besos xxxPolyester Princesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05602613792584925087noreply@blogger.com
