Oooh, what a glorious post, dear @sima369 !!

It is a joy to read about your passions - and brilliant clothing!! I too have an EPICO passion for clothes, and often repurpose and adjust things: there are markets locally where I live in Italy, with the most wonderful fabrics - often for as little as 50c - and I can fill a rucksack with wools and natural fibres, and change my wardrobe with the cycles of nature :-D

Did you ever follow the work of the beautiful Katwise O'Sullivan and her sweater coats? I am soooo inspired by her!! Here's her website: http://www.katwise.com/ in case you don't know it :-D

I've joined the Ladies of Hive Community - yey! Thank you for the push: I'd seen it before and thought to join! Blessings on your day, radiant soul! xxxx
