O meu nome é Margarida e não há nenhum título que me possa definir. Sou feliz onde quer que esteja, especialmente se rodeada de milhentos materiais com os quais possa dar largas à imaginação.
Adoro livros de todas as espécies. Sou uma apaixonada pela cozinha e adoro experimentar novas receitas. Gosto do limoeiro que tenho à porta de casa e da nogueira que me viu crescer e me dá sombra durante o Verão. A família e os amigos são o que de melhor tenho!
Em 2005 comecei este blog para mostrar aquilo que ocupava as minhas horas livres e por aqui já passaram muitas técnicas de trabalhos manuais. Nos últimos anos dediquei-me aos texteis pela sua versatilidade e, sem dúvida, são os meus preferidos.
No início de 2012 mudei-me para Londres por tempo indefinido e se há objecto de que sinto falta é a minha máquina de costura, mas sem ela desenvolvi outras aptidões que não sabia ter como o tricot, o crochet e até o desenho. Gosto de vaguear por esta cidade que sinto minha e descobrir novos lugares, lojas bonitas sempre de máquina fotográfica na mão - minha inseparável amiga.
Espero que gostem tanto de ler o Pano p'ra Mangas, quanto eu o gosto de o viver.
Obrigada a todos quantos estão aí desde 2005. Obrigada a todos os que chegaram há menos tempo e que me acompanham todos os dias.

My name is Margarida and I cannot describe myself in one word only. I'm happy wherever I am, as long as I'm surrounded by hundreds of crafty materials that can ignite my imagination.
I love all kind of books. I love cooking and I adore trying new recipes. I like the lemon tree outside my doorstep and the nut tree which knows me since I was born and gives me shade throughout the Summer. My family and my friends are the best thing I have.
In 2005 I started this blog to show how I spent my free time and since then I made so many different things... For the last few years I've turned my attention to textiles, which are versatile and doubtless are my favourite.
At the beginning of 2012 I've moved to London and the object I miss the most is my sewing machine, but living without it made me discover and develop other skills I didn't know I had like crochet, knitting and drwaing. I love to wander around this city finding new places and shops always with my camera in my hand - my best friend around here.
I hope you enjoy reading Pano p'ra Mangas as much as I enjoy living it.
Thank you to all of you who've been there siice 2005. Thank you all who arrived later and are with me everyday.
