Russ Miles and David Dawson came to Skills Matter and gave a one day workshop on how to inject simplicity in software. Working in teams, delegates created their code to navigate a real world AR drone (without crashing it!), learning how to break down a problem and tradeoff for the right values in Architecture, Design and Code. How to create the right number of tests to build the right level of confidence and how to enable Real Application Agility through Simplicity.

ODC simplicity
"Je vous ai apporté des bonbons
Parce que les fleurs c'est périssable"
Jacques Brel
English :
"I brought you some candy
Because flowers are perishable"
Jacques Brel
This challenge brought this song to my head. It brought me back to the simplicity of my youth in the north of France, where Jacques Brel is the old fashion singer that everyone loves.
I wanted to be Gimp free but did not like my fingers, so I desaturated the picture a bit. Added a soft glow too. I am still looking for my style, for my balance.
I love the blue version. 5+ yards in plaid; 3 3/4 yards solid.
This was one of the first vintage patterns I bought.

"Frugality is one of the most beautiful and joyful words in the English language, and yet one that we are culturally cut off from understanding and enjoying. The consumption society has made us feel that happiness lies in having things, and has failed to teach us the happiness of not having things." ~Elise Boulding
Me-Made May made me inspired. Inspiration amassed daily by all the other amazingly talented, kind and like-minded peers. MMM reignited my passion for sewing projects, I was excited to sew, blog and post my pics (no matter how bad my selfies were). I thank everyone for such a wonderful experience.

When i stayed in Uganda this is how my friend kept her toothbrush and paste - tucked into the wood on her hut wall!
I used Simplicity 2959 as a base pattern to make my wedding dress. I made a number of modifications and changes in the process but am very happy with the end result.
