Today we’re going to the Roskilde festival, will be back next monday I think. Say hi if you recognize me!
I don’t have much else to say so I’m leaving you with this picture I just found when my friend Carl made me think about Elin Wägner.
Elin Wägner (swedish feminist writer) in front of the 350.000 signatures gathered in 1913-1914 to support the womans right to vote.
The sun top I made.
The pattern is a couple in a horse carriage.
Frej and I are making wine for Roskilde, from beets and lemons, haha!
I predict it will not be a very classy wine.
Yesterday Johanna & I had beer in a park.
Then we went to Johannas place and met up with Åsa who gave us matching sisterhood rings.
I finally had time to look at and edit the pictures from midsummer. We celebrated in Gränna at Becka and Josefs place, it looks like this.
Josef.
Becka.
Making food. I somehow forgot to take pictures of the food table later in the day but never mind. All the food was great though, I had about five full plates and was so full for a while I could hadly walk.
Evelina and Becka.
Christina looking at Beckas latest tattoos.
Maya & Martin making food.
Becka, Peppe & Evelina.
Josef
Peppe & Frej are quite alike!
Becka cheering on Frej eating a pear that had been in a bottle of Hungarian booze for flavouring.
I cheered too, he ate it all.
Ellen! Ellen and I used to celebrate our midsummers together when we were kids.
Making a maypole.
A flower utero.
Very Swedish.
Maypole finished!
A little dancing.
Sneaky Females inc.
Interpretive dancing or something
Josso & Emelie.
Some drumming.
Sweden commercial..
Then the maypole ended up on the barbecue.
More drumming and stuff in the night, I forgot to take a lot of pictures and the ones I did take I’m not sure I’d be allowed to post on the internet.
Day after. Miranda, Josef & Beckas daughter. She fell in love with Frej.
But Frej ate her cat.
This was the sky today.
I was in bed until three today with the worst headache in a long time. Then it passed and we had icecream on a blanket.
Found a video by Klimax from World Business Summit on Climate Change in Copenhagen a few weeks ago, check it out!
A lot of people liked my idea ( I asked on facebook too) so I’ve made a symbol to use for vegan textiles/clothes/shoes etc on the site but it seems it was a bit trickier than I thought to put it in the item description on the product listings. So I will put them by the top right corner of every item picture that is vegan instead. I can’t do that on all the products already up on the site because it will take forever to edit it in to all the pictures but in time everything I am completely sure is 100% vegan will be marked so that you can find them from the first page. So just look for the heart and you’ll find the stuff!
Today I woke up from the sound of someone throwing stuff and looked out the window. Outside they were cleaning out some storage room and were going to drive lots of amazing things to the city dump! Linnea and I ran down and got a fantastic yellow couch for her room, the part that has been missing from our kitchen couch and lots of other stuff! They told us the stuff had belonged to a guy that worked at a dumping ground!
All this stuff was thrown on the ground but I didn’t take a picture until they had gathered it all up to go throw what we couldn’t take….
Couch is complete! We’ll change the green fabric though, it’s a bit too worn out.
What is this called in english? Harmonica? I love it! 
We’ll plant something in this:
And now I can do my drinking ~*classy*~
So many great vinyls!!! Bowie!!!! Dolly Parton!!!!!!!
Hello and welcome to Karins fashion blog. You might find this amazing Malibu Barbie nailpolish in any dumpster near you.
Cook book!
My fave!
I was going to list all of these today but then internet was completely down between 9 in the morning and a few minutes ago so I got effective instead and have sewn a tanning top and a skirt, mended my longjohns and decorated a hatbox I use as a suitcase. Sadly I made the skirt on guessing my waist measurement so nowit’s way too small.Which is sad for me because I made it out of my favourite fabric that I’ve been saving forever. Good for you though because that means I’ll sell it instead.
Anyway lots of pattern coming tonight/tomorrow!
I’ve been celebrating midsummer in Jönköping at Becka & Josefs place with my friends, it was wonderful and pictures are coming! Now I’m back, right now with henna in my hair & making dinner at the same time.
Peppe & Evelina sang this song and played drums on midsummer.
Absolutely wonderful.
