Pattern: simplicity 3835
Fabric: Black & Aubergine check from Tessuti
The fabric is not too good. I've worn it twice and it has pilled all over. Looks about 5 years old all ready. Such a shame...
I was going to add pockets and take it in around the chest but probably won't now the fabric has pilled.
But I still love it!!
Date: 1949

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.

Le soleil a légèrement pointé le bout de son nez aujourd'hui, alors j'ai pu reprendre ma demoiselle en photo, ça faisait longtemps!
