New project

Hello everybody!

I started a new project yesterday. SODA SO-3162 Love Forever.

It's a new couple for my wall. So far we have part of the landscape, floor and the bench but I plan to finish the legs today. I decided to post the progress of this project on the sidebar. 

Now it's time to find out who will be receiving the travelling pattern. It will travel from Brazil to...

FRANCE! Yes, congrats Valerie! I'm pretty sure that something wonderful is gonna come out! I'm very pleased to send you some goodies together with the pattern.

I want to thank so much for every comment on the last post. Thank you all for participating. Now I have to say the same thing Sarah said: keep tracking the travelling pattern..maybe you can be the one to get it next time!

XOXO, Isa.

Olá pessoal!

Ontem comecei um novo projeto. SODA SO-3162 Love Forever.

Mais um lindo casal para a minha parede. Até agora temos uma parte da paisagem, do chão e do banco mas até o final do dia eu pretendo finalizar as pernas também.Decidi colocar as fotos do progresso do projeto na barra ao lado.

Agora é hora de saber para quem vai o travelling pattern. Do Brasil direto para a França! Sim, parabéns para a amiga Valerie! Tenho absoluta certeza de que alguma coisa bem linda irá surgir em breve. Estou muito feliz em mandar esse gráfico junto com uns mimos bem legais para você.

Gostaria de agradecer a cada pessoa que comentou no meu post anterior. Obrigada a todos pela participação. Agora devo dizer o mesmo que a Sarah disse: continue a seguir o travelling pattern..você nunca sabe, talvez possa ser a próxima a recebe-lo.

Beijos, Isa.

The travelling Pattern.

Finally! I finished the Summer Garden project!

Summer Garden, by Little House Needleworks

Stitched on hand dyed aida
Started on October, 26th
Ended on November, 3rd

I used DMC color variations for the big flowers. It was the very first time using those flosses I've got from Nia. I used some marble Anchor colors I had too. I dyed a little piece of aida using black tea...never did that before.

Thanks a lot for all the help about stitching the flowers. I don't know if I did it right but I tried my best.

I decided not to stitch the frame because of the passe-partout I'm gonna use. 

Now I'm ready to pass it to another friend together with some goodies just as Sarah did with me. I can't wait to find out who will be the next one to have this Summer Garden project. If you're interested, all you have to do is comment on this post. I'll pick up the winner next weekend, so...hurry up!

XOXO, Isa.

---------------------------

Finalmente! Terminei o projeto Summer Garden!

Usei meadas color variations para as flores maiores. Foi a primeira vez que usei essas linhas que havia recebido da amiga Nia há algum tempo atrás. Também usei linhas matizadas da Anchor. Tingi um pedaço de etamine com chá preto, nunca havia feito isso antes.

Obrigada a todas pela ajuda com as flores. Não sei se está certo mas dei o meu melhor.

Decidi também não bordar a moldura de flores pois usarei um passe-partout para esse projeto.

Agora estou pronta para passar esse travelling pattern para uma amiga juntamente com alguns mimos assim como a Sarah fez comigo. Se você está interessado, tudo o que tem que fazer é deixar um comentário nesse post. Vou sortear a ganhadora na semana que vem então se apresse!

Beijos, Isa.

Onde more done!

Stitched on white Dohler Aida

Today I did something I was missing a lot..I sewed! I made the pillow case with no ruffles around 'cause the girls is 13 years old...so, I figured out it was gonna be better without it, less childish.

I'm not an expert on patchworking and I wanted something quick and simple for sewing. Now it is time to start with the travelling pattern!

I'm gonna choose the same fabric I used for "Kitchen Goods" I accept all kind of suggestions for the colors I'm gonna use ok?!?

I wish you all a blessed sunday!

---------------------------------------------
Mais um gráfico prontinho!
Hoje fiz uma coisa que há muito tempo não fazia, costurei! Optei por fazer a almofadinha sem os babados que costumo colocar pois a menina já tem 13 anos, achei que ficaria menos infantil sem os babadinhos.
Não sou expert em patchwork então fiz o mais simples que pude com apenas tirinhas de 9cm costuradas uma na outra. Agora é seguir para o próximo projeto, o travelling pattern!
Vou escolher o mesmo tecido que usei no "Kitchen Goods" e aceito todas as sugestões possíveis para escolher as cores certas ok?
Desejo um domingo abençoado a todas!

It's done, finally!

It is not framed yet 'cause I'm still recovering from the surgery. I can't go out and this is driving me crazy! It is so boring staying home with nothing to do and watching people doing things for me, I really hate.

Yesterday I received the travelling pattern from Sarah and she sent me some goodies too! So sweet! Thanks a lot my dear friend! I'll try to stitch this on linen or Jobelan but the thing is that I have no idea for the colors I'm going to use for this project. I'm not a creative person.

I like the colored floss she gave me and the card is lovely too!

I'm writting this post in english. I have to practice more. I used to speak and write perfectly in english 'cause I spent a while in the US but it was a long time ago. I'll try to write more posts...it's a way I found to learn again what I forgot during the past 15 years without speaking this language. Forgive me if I wrote something wrong :) I have been learning a lot with the new followers I've got and the new friendships I'm making in here.

XOXO. Isa.
