Adventale ribbons collection with Renaissance ribbons


I am thrilled to introduce a brand-new extension of the Adventale world: the Adventale Ribbon Collection licensed with the Renaissance ribbons.


This beautifully curated line of ribbons brings the soft, wintry essence of Adventale to a new medium—perfect for adding a heartfelt, handcrafted touch to gift wrapping, sewing projects, journaling, and more.


Designed with the same attention to detail and aesthetic as the Adventale fabric collection, each ribbon carries the warmth, nostalgia, and storybook charm you've come to love.

🌿 Available June 2025
🎁 Ideal for makers, crafters, and gift-givers
💌 Limited release—once it’s gone, it’s gone



Designing it was such a joy, and using it on my first project (a little pouch!) truly felt like a dream come true.
I loved the idea of using these ribbons as the central accent of the pouch (it's a free video tutorial)
But they came handy to be used for/as handle, tabs and ribbon-sliders.















































I can’t wait to see how you use these delicate designs to embellish your projects and wrap your world in the magic of Adventale.

Mermaids

I finally managed to list something on eBay. Not the dress that could be seen in progress in the previous post, but some very interesting and unique pieces I made in collaboration with Rachel of MydeepblueC. Her work is just impecable and I'm so happy that I had the chance to work with her and purchase one pair of her beautifuly hand embellished jeans for Marta:).

The fabric line we used is the Mendocino line by
Heather Ross featuring mermaids, seahorses, squids, octopi large and small, and we choosed the gorgeous send and aqua palette in colors of earth, redwood forests, sand beaches, sky and sea. And for those reading my blog, it is well known how much I love that colour combo:)

Of course, my granny gave hers contribution to the versatibility of this small collection, by knitting the warmy/cozy necktie and hand warmers and I embellished them with the fabric buttons.
So cute!!!! I especially love this brooch pin

I started creating this set, inspired with gorgeous trims I found and of course the quilting squares;)






And must say that all that loveliness I ruined again with making the mistake on selecting the ISO on my camera...ughhhh!!!! I have placed my ISO to 1600 instead of auto, which is usually 200-400 at that type of light....So I got all that grainy pics...when I realized that, we went back to the garden to redo, but it was already 4.30 pm and getting already dark(2 weeks ago we had that changing of time in one hour forward).So many pics are dark and noisy:(

Also, I've relisted 2 Christmas listings, but you have all the links at the side bar.....

Enjoy the week,
