Garden of Patches: January 2010
http://gardenofpatches.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
A little bit of everything handmade. Saturday, January 30, 2010. After a long week, I give you the answers for your question: "what the heck did she do for the sewing circle anyway? A paper piecing of the Eiffel Tower! I was going to choose completely different fabrics for that, but my dear teacher gave me those - isn't she adorable? It's basically the same color choice the book I used suggests, and I thought of changing them. But I guess it turned out really good using plain colors for the tower. Right:...

A little bit of everything handmade. Thursday, December 31, 2009. Sewing circle in January! Block January 13th on your calendar. Katherine, from the blog I've been thinking of you.

It seems simple, you just need a piece of fabric measuring 20 x 20 cm and sew it on Jan 13th between midday and midnight (I've already sent her an email asking about the time zone! The young...

Garden of Patches: June 2010

A little bit of everything handmade. Saturday, June 19, 2010. A WIP almost in the end. In the meantime I didn't write here, I've been working in one of the WIPs I showed you in the previous series: the shrug. But this post is not about it. It happens that I was really excited with the shrug, because, as I said before, I've started it with my friend S., and even though she gave it up later (but she has already made dozens of hats for donation, a beautiful vest and she's almost done with another shrug!

Garden of Patches: October 2010
http://gardenofpatches.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
A little bit of everything handmade. Wednesday, October 13, 2010. But just like Lewis Carroll's white rabbit, I'm getting there! Behold the first part of Paisley des Quatre Saisons:. I loved embroidering these stitches! I've made the first part yesterday, during the holiday, and today I've made the second one:. I think it's looking nice, but I had to make a few changes. It's been a long time since I got this mad when embroidering! Do you know why? Um azul muito bonito! For the flowers stems, I used regul...

A little bit of everything handmade. Sunday, January 16, 2011. I'm posting with my cell phone for the first time. For this test, I'll show you what I've worked on today:. The picture should be here. This little program seems to have a mind of its own. I don't even know where the graphic signs are here! Not that it matters too much for the English version. I thought I'd lost everything after I wrote that. Ah, the technology.). Anyway, today I fixed a pair of jeans (shortening the legs, what's that called?

A little bit of everything handmade. Sunday, November 29, 2009. After a long time, I'll do as I promised: behold the passport wallet tutorial! Before anything, remember I've done it a few days before traveling, and I was DYING to do something on my sewing machine. So the fun was in making it, and not worrying if it was perfect. And having only made one purse with my machine before this project, imagine my skills with it. The drawing I've made before starting cutting fabrics was sort of like this:. I've c...
