Belt

This belt is my latest project. I thought of it during one sleepless night, when my mind was rushing through ideas, then when I decided to go to sleep I quickly sketched it in my book to not forget. Does this happens with you too? Once in a while this happens to me. The other thoughts of that night are still in progress, but I was so glad to complete this one, even though I don't have a leather foot for my machine. I looked online and find out that if you put baby powder on the leather it run much easier through the machine. Awesome! It worked for me - well, I still want to get a leather foot for my machine (called Roller foot, because it has two wheels that run through the leather so it won't stick), but until I can afford one (because Husqvarna accessories are super expensive) I will use this baby powder technique.

Fall Fest - Oct, 3rd 2009

Just some pictures of my items at the Fall Festival at the Children's Center in Columbus, OH.

Independent's Day - Event

This was my first event in Columbus, OH and I loved it!

It was a beautiful day, and there were a lot of people enjoying the Saturday, the music, and the event. Unfortunately, I forgot to take a picture of my tent this time, which means I was really busy the whole day. We stayed until a little bit before 10 pm. It was great! I wanted to thank everyone that stopped by and also thank the organizers.

Go crafters!

Let's enjoy some Picnic time!

I am so excited to introduce my new project!

It just looks so adorable, I am already attached to it.

I made a place mat set and napkins set, a table runner, and I am finishing the picnic blanket.

I myself hand printed the pink cupcakes on the fabric using silk screen - with the hubby's help, of course! His printmaking skills were very useful!

What I am loving is that you can take the place mats to the picnic as they roll in a easy way to carry. Also, it has a pocket for the silverware, so no worries about loose forks and knives.

The blanket still is in process, and I am interlining it with light polyester batting for some softness. You know how sometimes you lay a blanket and it is still hard to sit and if the grass is a little wet it goes though - horrible! - so, I am making sure it is nice and soft, and because of the poly batting, moisture will have a little trouble going through.

I hope to post it on my Etsy soon, so keep checking because this is the only one with this combination of tan linen/pink details.
