She/hermaker/sewist
I live in Belgium with my husband and 2 children. By day I work an office job helping freelancers with their administration. Many of them are makers themselves, and I love to help them out with their paperwork. By night I get to create myself. I cook, garden, thrift en repurpose,… basically make all sorts of things but I always return to sewing. I remember making attempts at sewing since I was a kid but the combination of having nobody around to teach me and being pretty impatient resulted in me making a lot of unwearable things. Only when a started following a sewing course in the evenings about 10 years ago I started to make things I could actually wear. I now only sew or thrift all of my clothing.
What influence does music have in your life as a creative?:
Confession time: I watch reality tv during sewing and rarely listen to music when I’m making something. Reality tv works the best for me to zone out. Music is reserved for moments when I get to listen more intentionally, when I want to feel a certain way, when I feel inspired or when I want to move my body.
Tell us about your playlist:
This playlist is composed out of songs I could listen to over and over again (hence the title of the playlist). I get in certain moods and frantically start looking for tracks to match that mood, but these songs work every time. A lot of them are tied to a memory or they are songs I obsessed over once and kept listening to on repeat, resulting in them transforming in a sort of soundtrack for that period in my life.
