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 :))))

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?

Bags - reloaded

First one of a new series: jewelery wrappers this time. Same pattern, same execution, different size than the ones made for presents last summer. Off course, different fabric :))

And this is just the beginning "of a new era", meaning I am mass-producing the things. What, is it not mass production when you make 10 of the same kind? Well, for me is close enough to any regular assembly line: I am working in production phases, therefore I am very productive :D. I've produced so far three more assortments. And I'm thinking of more :PPPP

The Chinese brocades came from far, far away: I've got them In San Francisco, in China town, during last summer's visit. Not all of them, but the prettiest :). Well, now they have found their purpose. We are all happy.

Thank you for visiting, thank you for reading along, and may you have a wonderful Day!
