Last week on Monday, our neighbor on this floor came over in a frantic and tried to tell me about a leak that we had under our apartment that has made damage to the apartment below us. He only speaks German and I had a hard time understanding the whole issue. So we went to a lady who I know speaks English and she translated for us. The people below us are not living in the apartment and have been gone somewhere for awhile so I don't know how long this might have been happening with the leak. There is someone else who occasionally comes over to check on the apartment and found the problem. He took me to the apartment on the lower floor and there was damage clearly from our place. Our apartment had no signs anywhere of a leak. I contacted the landlord via email but with no response from her, our neighbor was nice enough to find some workmen who could diagnose and fix the problem on Wednesday. It was the shower drain pipe, it had become separated from the drain and was cracked. Now that is fixed and all is OK up here but I have no idea what will happen for the apartment below us and our landlord. She did show up on Friday and was furious that I had allowed people into our apartment to repair the problem without her approval. So with all that going on I only did a little sewing and mending. I hemmed 4 pair of pants, repaired the seat of a pair of pants and just got in today a skirt to alter and two dresses to hem. I have been learning quilting on-line and I'm planning a quilt to make now. Tomorrow is the Stoffmarkt so I will go get some supplies. I also made this pillow this week.
