Lazy saturday afternoon

I know I've promised something else, but, as I said, I'm in "lazy mood".
Therefore, I will just let you enjoy some laziness products (or should I say: this is what I do when I don't feel like doing anything?!)

Maybe I should do more lazy work, what do you think? :))))))

Ladies and gentelmen of the jury...

  ... let me defend myself!

I've been accused lately of showing little or no interest at all to the "textile matter", of "quitting the patches", of "running to a different hobby". Well, let me explain myself: I've always told that I have more than one focus, and that I like to do more than one thing :). In my defense, you can see the very motto of this blog (yes, look up, in the title, there you have it!).

Secondly, I didn't quit the patch world. At all. Just that I'm very busy, and the quilting projects tend to run a lot slower and to be much more time consuming than the others (aka jewelry, for now ;) ), that is why you get to see more of the quick products and less of the slower ones.

I have proof to sustain my afirmations:
Some quilt tops:
Boy one:

Boy two

Girl:

quilt sandwich to be quilted, for grandpa ;)

and, not quilts, but (who said it's not possible?) from patchwork fabric (oh, that yummy, tasty, mouth watering Kaffe Fasset....) two skirts for a young lady that requested "summery, colorful, twirling skirts)

aaaannnnnnddddd a preview of my insanity, side, back and front.

Why insanity, would you ask? well, that is a completely different story, that will be the subject of another post....
Till then, have fun and enjoy life!

Deep space nine ...

... or me just continuing exploring far away lands of jewelry making.

I have to admit: I like to play, and this time, I have a lot of new toys suddenly at my disposal.

Hence, I keep on playing and making these things, that just keep flowing.

Here, take a look!

These two were made to complete the previous post necklaces...
Then, I got a new idea! hanging stones on some wire... So, tried that out.

The shape was promising, so I had to try it again, with a little variation.

Then, I felt the urge of making something green... And I don't even like green!

Enough green! Time for some purple now!

 Worse part is that I just end one and the next one is already a work-in-progress... I already dream of red and black, of more purple, of gray silver and red..... and I can keep on going :))))

It cannot be two without three (old romanian saying)

...which means that if it happened twice, it will happen the third time as well.
Therefore, admire the third series :))))

Now, my only concern is: will I stop? But then, again, why should I?  :))))

It's growing and I can't help it :)

Help! I'm being taken over by a bead manic!!!!!

Look, there is proof:

I can't stop making these things, and I'm enjoying it tremendously!
I think I need professional help :))))

Pouch bags - continous mission :))

I've told you I'm mass producing. Here is proof:

I like them very  much, but these tiny pouches are a bit fiddly to make. I can't wait to start working on woman/mother/valentine's day models (yup, I'm planning a series. I have mirrors and Rhine stones and beads floating all over my dreams, and my working tables :D)
Do you like them?

Baby quilts - Christmas edition

Beside regular Christmas items, this year I've had a special order. Three baby quilts, two baby girls, twins, and a baby boy.
The rule was, as usual: to be the same but different. I guess I've reached my goal, I've received a lot of appreciations.

The first plan was to make them naked, but then, since it was a(n) (almost) Christmas gift, I've decided it had to be more festive, so I've sewn some decorative lines, I've added some other bling! elements, and there you have: three little baby blankets, all cotton, all soft, all warm...
