grandma is on

Kiki wrote about the hobby she is intensely ashamed of last week, and which I also feel guilty about. Take a look here if you're curious. But it turns out, according to Graziadaily.uk, we don't have to be ashamed of this at all. here Moreover, old-fashioned quaintness is very much in vogue. In England, there are sewing clubs (which are called Stitch 'n Bitch) and you were also enthusiastically watching Heel Holland Bakt and Heel Holland Naait (which I believe is actually called Through The Eye Of The Needle). Just admit it.

Anyway, quaintness knows no time and is hipper than ever. It must be due to the Iris Apfel documentary, the aging population in general, and the latest Gucci collection where grandma's clothing got a new twist in particular. Think big glasses, skirts that go over the knee, and a big bow around the collar of your blouse (pronounced bloe-suh). Grandma is on. Sewing clubs (with a sewing machine, of course), jam-making sessions,.

making sausages, and even pottery is experiencing a revival. Okay, I initially had my doubts about it too, but actually, it's quite nice to do something with your friends and create something tangible (or edible or wearable). The same as our grandmothers, but we have traded spooning advocaat for a strong gin and tonic, that we have. Iris Apfel certainly won't hold that against us.
