A few new designs and a resell

As I haven't shared properly any new recent design, I thought this could be a good opportunity to do that:)





While being in Italy, I just couldn't resist not buying some of this season's "must have" embellishments for making hair accessories, especially feathers and feathered butterflies.

















Some of these cuties are already available in the shop , and you can see other new accessories by browsing through my flickr album.



Also, I got the sweet notice yesterday from a dear customer about selling one of my designs , made for her beautiful DD, 2 years ago, in size 2T and you might check it out HERE .
It was the Ginger Blossom gaucho set , that was exhibited at The Museum of Applied Art and you can read more about that HERE.

Ginger Blossom goes on exhibition:o)

YAY!!!How great is that?????? I submited my Ginger Blossom set at the ULUPUDS 40th May exhibition and it was accepted!!!!






I was so thrilled even because this is the first time that I'm showing my sewn work, and not my drawings, collages or graphics, as since now......So, this was a big revealing for my recent field of creativity, hobby or love....however should it be called......and this was so propriate as the Revealing was the name of the Ehxibition;). Revealing, where one explores the inner world, the one` s own attitude, the personal in-depth knowledge. Along the spiral, it is a little bit shifted level which goes together with a thesis that `art is juxtaposed with science as the way of revealing, creating and spreading knowledge in the broader sense of deepening the knowledge`. Even more than the mentioned here, it is an affirmation of the attitude that art is avantguarde from which one could be taught, which can go forward, having advantage. Precisely in that sense, this year` s exhibition works of art should be observed. Especially because it is a question about the applied art, which by its character has always been actual, current and usable. Also, its artistic impression is potentially boundless, powerfull field of the entire creative expression, testified by the works of art of onehundred and one artist being exposed at this year` s exhibition.
















You got to check some amazing art works by clicking here.
There are exhibited many beautiful and different works in 9 applied arts categories or sections. Here are some works....




















I saved for last my favorite from this Exhibition, Danijela Golubovic's work.
She is very young, and was my mom's student. I just love this piece of art, ceramic (porcelain) and iron.....just worth the award she got!!!Congrats!!!





There is also another great ceramic exhibition, that you may check here .

Enjoy the weekend;) and those of you hanging around at the Market at the other part of the world, have fun and be sure to take some great pics;)

Aqua, sky and earth

Hi everyone and happy spring!!!!Tomorrow we are even adjusting our clocks for one hour further.....means one hour less sleeping!!:(
We have returned home from Italy just 2 days ago and I have a lot of "homework" to do, but somehow I've managed to list my new outfits on Ebay just a few hours ago for the special Ginger Blossom ebay launch.
I prepared 2 sister's sets, one with gaucho pants in shades of aqua(one of my favourite colors)





and the other one with skirt in earth colours....



I was even thinking to call them 4 elements, but the missing element was def fire, as I haven't used any warm color,LOL. So I called them using Italian names for water - aqua (I had in mind sea water, of course) and ginger - zenzero.



As this gorgeous fabric line was so inspiring, I also prepared some matching accessories, listed separately with 0.99$ as starting bid...so will see how they will go keeping my fingers crossed;)





I took the photos on my daughters while being in Italy, in the apartment, as outside was very cold, even being at the south of Italy.
It was the first time modelling for my youngest daughter, Bianka that will turn 1 on Thursday:) and it wasn't easy at all, taking the fact that my camera is not very professional, so just couldn't capture all the movements still without flash. But well, I think that some pics went pretty well and I specially like the first one on this post.
I have some new pics to share while being in Italy, just need a few days to catch with all my orders and boring house homework.
Stay tuned and have a wonderful weekend!!!

Ginger blossom fabrics

I'm in the middle of preparing my newest sets for upcoming Ginger Blossom launch on ebay, starting on 25 March, celebrating Sandi Henderson's debut fabric line.I'm so excited to be part of this launch, as Sandi's fabrics are just gorgeous and absolutely MUST HAVE, and than there are 75 extremely talented designers that will list theirs items made with this stunning fabric line.

I must say that firstly, I had in mind to create something different than the sets that you will be able to see in a few days;), but as the fabrics I ordered were backordered, I had to create with what I got from thefatquartershop and therefore to combine with some other designer's fabrics;) Hopefully I will have other Sandi's prints too;). We are going to Italy for our Easter holidays and will be there 20-28 March, so I'm in a rush to prepare everything till Thrsday.


The colors are just delicious and I've chosen the prints with my favourite colour-aqua and the crocheted and lace parts are going so good with the fabrics;)





These are hat and tops details




Happy Friday!
