Reassuming...

all

Last week here was very chaotic, too many events and too much customs,LOL. I had some DUH moments, like after some sewing, setting to my computer to check the e-mails and desperately searching for the foot control pedal....instead of ENTER key on the keyboard...lol. Just when I thought that eBay was gone on vacation, I got so many orders, and the same on etsy....and I the same strange thing happened on my flickr ...had so many comments on where and how to buy some of my creations....

I had my loyal customer who became an awesome friend from UK, that will be going at Crieff CRAFT handmade FAIR in Scotland this weekend and be selling some of my designs, as well. So excited for her!!!!

brooches

I also finished and sent my latest custom Gaucho sets for one adorable US customer.



She was so sweet giving me the possibility to create the 3 pc set upon my judgements, choosing Summer in the city line by Moda ...and those 3 pieces-top, gaucho pants and ruffled dress were made( + sash + headband;):














Her DD has the same measurements as Marta, so I had the chance to make her see the set modeled this way;).

Must say, I'm in loved!!!!Especially in the patchwork top:) Will have to make some more of these!!!


Ok, I will now share my family events too-or better say Marta's recitals....

...in nursery.....

and English class final lesson....




I've uploaded this clip in way to share how the kids learn and play in English here.

Enjoy the rest of the week!!!

Summer in the city




Ahhhhhh, today I got in my mail some Summer in the city charm packs!!!This fabric line by Moda was so popular last summer and I was such a dork not to buy it in time, but lately managed to get some prints and yesterday, finally, won a few yards of my favourite one.





The birdies!!!!They are so beautiful, aren't they????





Marta was so happy that I allowed her playing with some charms and she was so excited, and so was I...well still am!!!I think that there is something about us, fabric addicted people that when are aware of some line being discontinued and Hard To Find, we want it even more, even that the prices are up....I remember when I discovered Amy Butler's Sunbloom collection, I've tried to buy some prints and search everywhere without any luck:( and it was like 30$ for yard.




And here are some pics of what I did with these(LOVE it):












This photo here is just a mountin of our wardrobe waiting to be ironed, LOL, and my hubby took this pic laughing while I was sewing something, telling me why don't you blog this and let people see something really interesting and incredible, LMAO!!!!!
So, well, I did it. Today, (thanks to the girl who is helping me with the house work;)) all this is in the closet, ironed and I can happily think about my next project....
