Walk Through Walls Cheat

Innovating: knitting with crochet cross

At school I learned the basics of crochet, later, at the University I took up the hook and made a purse that pleased with my friends and I had knit a couple more .... It's been ten years approx. since the last time I knitted and still I have my chopsticks and magazines.
But on Thursday I went downtown and found a book fair. At a local craft magazines had bought a crochet hook, then I had to buy the thread, I had no need to make these cute little table mats for my Stevedores ...
This is the first, very old magazine design work, I have since high school ... like 15 years??


new magazine design and already released ... I think my involvement ends here and I tried to do a larger and more difficult, but it turned out, had to weave in pieces and had more than 160 lines, I got frustrated. Although I must admit that I had difficulty apprentice to expert and well, it seems that I overestimated jijijijiji.
rest the hook, until I reconciled with the design of the magazine.

Vero.

Smelling My Moms Feet

Point: LHN


Winter decided to come and today in Iquique toooda has rained in the afternoon. For the city is a disaster because the ceilings are not prepared for the water and the streets either. There are blackouts in several areas and people are not seen on the streets. Security news tomorrow will say the number of victims.

Thank God, I am well protected and warm. I love the rain, the aroma that leaves, I opened the windows of the dept to let in moisture, not cold and sat down to hear the wheels of the cars in the water. When I prepared some tasty work threads and poured myself a few uan cup with some tea ... for me it was magic, my moment of relaxation.
Now I show my embroidery.


This is the "Plant Kindness", maybe the third LHN that board ... I had forgotten and organizing my studio I found it all crumpled, now if I did justice and is hosted by the living the dept.

The "Watermelon", and had his days, is very fast and I loved the result. Still waiting a frame, I have not found the right size. Finally

"Strawberry House" for the second time the board as the former Christian asked me to give it to her cousin. Now I did it in a rather rustic linen. It is also waiting for a nice frame.

A BIG HUG to all, thanks for your company through text messages.

Rockstar Grille Chevy Silverado

table runner patchwork and stitchery



I have really wanted to show them my first table runner.

I've spent the afternoon at embroidery houses.

Step show mi tesoro...

Recuerdan cuando les conté en el post anterior que elegí la combinación de telas? En Chile estamos en otoño por tanto buscaba la gama de cafés, amarillos y cremas.
El papel bajo la tela es el diseño del camino en tamaño real. Así calculé la tela y el número de cuadraditos que necesitaba, además pude adaptar las medidas a mi gusto desde el diseño original (camino de mesa de la diseñadora Annaka del 2007).



again I used a design of the book Bronwyn Hayes Cotton Country Quilt proponent in red, but I used a tinted yellow.


pad it !!!!!!!! Now
Phew, I hope not to mess ....
Greetings to all, Vero
