10 Years Ago: Machina Nostalgica

Fashion Show Machina Nostalgica
Ten years ago I was allowed to be part of the Machina Nostalgica, the first German steampunk exhibition in the Kreismuseum Prinzeßhof in Itzehoe!
I got to meet so many wonderful, creative and talented people and host my first opening weekend fashion show.
At this point a big thank you again to my great, beautiful models Raja, Jasmin, Josepha, Lea and Swenja, and of course also to the hairdresser Marlies and for the invisible but indispensable help in the background to my dear friend Sandra!

The small film contribution to the opening weekend can still be found at: Steampunk Exhibition Machina Nostalgica.

It was a wonderful time and I like to think back on it often :-)

Reminiscing… yours

A New Crochet Shawl: Victorian Mermaid Lace Shawl

Victorian Mermaid Lace Shawl
And again crochet stuff, but a work from this year: The Victorian Mermaid Lace Shawl, which I made to match my great new boots :-)

My sewing projects are progressing slowly – I don’t have the right fabric and I’m running out of time until Anno 1900…

But the next big crochet project is already in the starting blocks ;-)

Let’s see what I have to show next…
Yours,
JessiCat

A New Outfit: Archer Vest with Wrist Warmers

Archer Vest
It’s hard to believe, but today I actually have something sewn to show and nothing crocheted ;-)

However, it is a quick & dirty work that was created in 2021, the Archer Vest with the matching Archer Wrist Warmers.

And no – I haven’t forgotten how to sew, it’s just all going a little slower than I’d like.
I hope I can make another update soon and show more :-)

Yours,
JessiCat
