Today's my last day in Holland. I stayed in Amsterdam, my colleague Radhika's home. We walked along the river and toured the town centre.
Amsterdam is a fascinating city with packed squares with quiet canals .
That's what I've never known and the new style of making dress seamless - without using thread and needle to make a wearable and the patterns can be so detailed ! This is the trial sample I made with silk chiffon plus wool.
What's more for my trip ? I have the chance to meet my good friends. Radhika is my colleague working in Amsterdam Headquarters. I stayed my last day with her. She prepared me the very delicious Indian meal and I made the simple Chinese fried rice.
My pleasure to meet my blogfriend Kim in Maastricht. She's a great felter whom we've the common interest.
have a nice journey back home Terriea!! It really was a pleasure meeting you and I hope we will once meet again...
ReplyDeletehugs,
Kim
Aww, time passes so fast and you're ready to go home. Glad you enjoyed the trip (and we enjoyed the photos too!). It's good to travel to see the world and relax your mind sometimes. Hoping to see more of your nuno felt crafts/ dresses!
ReplyDeleteSob, sniff, sniff...it's often sad to say goodbye to good friends. It is wonderful to travel and see the other side of the world and meeting new friends and learn new things. I look forward to seeing your new project soon. I love the intricate designs and the natural look. I imagine it would be lovely to make a wedding gown with this technique. Cheers
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy to hear that you had such fun on your trip (and learned so much!!)
ReplyDeleteNow you'll just have to start planning your trip to visit ME here in Philadelphia!! XXO-
What a wonderful bunch of posts!! Thank you for the view of Holland through your experiences and showing us a peek of your new felting pieces... the dress is so wonderful!! I love the tulip hanging as well, so colorful and soft looking :)
