La filosofia è quella dell'imparare facendo. E' poi vero che bisogna essere "artisti" per ideare, progettare e realizzare? Ognuno di noi ha qualcosa da dire, basta lasciargli lo spazio di uscire. Sono poi vere le raccomandazioni delle nostre mamme, nonne, zie sull'importanza di essere precise? "Prima esercitati ad andare dritta, poi potrai pensare di cucire qualcosa". Nella casa-laboratorio di Unfreeze, è bastata l'idea di creare una propria borsa per percorrere tutte le fasi del processo: disegno, taglio, imbastitura e montaggio ... e c'è anche stato spazio per una merenda per grandi e piccini!
Alcune sono arrivate al semi-finito, altre sono addirittura andate oltre con applicazioni e decorazioni, altre ancora (come chi scrive) si sono fermate un po' prima ... ma non c'è problema, perché ci rivediamo sabato 26 giugno dalle 15 alle 19 per completare e rifinire i nostri progetti o per avviarne di nuovi. Ad ognuno i suoi tempi, i suoi desideri, le sue fantasie. Unfreeze è prima di tutto libertà!

Back to being little girls in just four hours! It's neither a beauty treatment, nor a midnight spell. It's what happened during last Saturday's session of "Sewing box", the creative course organised in the home-lab of Unfreeze in the hills near Lucca. Everything was ready at three o’clock, when all the participants arrived. Perhaps at first they were a bit nervous because of the unusual location (dining room, studio, home or laboratory?), but after a brief introduction, a lot of smiles and the creative inspirations offered by our stylist, Maria e Veronica, the atmosphere became relaxed and productive. The philosophy is “learn by doing”. Is it true that you have to be an “artist” to be able to think up something, design it and create it? Each of us has something to say: the important thing is to feel free to be creative. Is it true what our grannies, aunts, mums told us about being precise? “First learn to sew in a straight line, then you can think about making something”. In the home-lab of Unfreeze it was enough to simply have the idea of creating your own bag to go through all the phases of the process: drawing, cutting, tacking and sewing … and we found the time even to have a snack together with the kids! Some of us finished their bags, some managed even to decorate them, others (like me) stopped much earlier … but never mind! We are meeting again on Saturday 26th June from 3 to 7 pm, to complete and give the finishing touches to our bags or to start something new. Each in their own time, with desires and fantasies, because, first and foremost, Unfreeze is freedom! All the activities will be in Italian, but an English speaking teacher of Italian will be present for those in need. This is the perfect opportunity to learn or improve your Italian! And if you are looking for a "taylor-made" week end, Unfreeze is linked to a network of small B&Bs around Lucca. We will be pleased to help you find suitable accomodation.
