Remembering - Erinnerungen - Souvenirs - Recuerdos

After severals months I did once more a piece for my Etsy store. It's name is "Remembering" and talks about sunny scenes of childhood. 

It is done with the embellisher and other own techniques with fabric and wool an  all quilted by hand.

I used pieces of old cotton organzas, embroidered and with some old embellishments. I inherited them from my mother and I am beginning to work with them.

The piece is about 12"x14" (30x35 cm) and ist meant to be framed in a shadow box.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

One more square

...for my bed cover.

Spring

I love the view from my appartment at the moment. It is a green sea where the buildings look like islands... Buenos Aires is a real green city!

Finding time

Time is precious nowadays. It took me much effort to start the challenge but now it already happened and I can go back to my personal work.

My bed needs a summer cover and I began doing small appliqué squares, I already have two of them. The next one in another post.

I will sew them to a huge old blanket and who knows when I'll be finished. I'm ciming to an age where everything seems not that important at all... I take more time for things I like.

A little entertainment

I need a new cover for my bed in summer. Because of that I am kind of deconstructing a quilt... meaning I am working in an unusual way...

I decided to do small square scenes and sew/appliqué them all over a cotton sheet, perhaps not only squares but also  circles...

I will keep you informed, I intend to work on this project behind the scene...

Ce petit coussin est fait avec du feutre et brodé. J'ai appliqué le petit ange avec les colibris sur un hexagone fait au crochet. Le dos du coussin est fait avec un tissu ciré africain. J'ai fait des applications sur ceci et j'ai brodé mes initiales.
