Late Summer Little Bag

Do you remember the last post?
Well, one piece of the painted fabrics became the new member of my Colibri bags family. I called it Late Summer.

Looking for something to match the painted fabrics, I discovered pieces of denim, cloth, corduroy and others, forgotten in the hidden nooks of the cabinet. When I saw them I was very happy because they were just right for the Autumn bags.
I was happy too working again after a long time, with combinations of fabrics having different compositions, thicknesses and textures. 
For this bag I chose a thin blue corduroy fabric because it seemed to me that the painted fabric needs it as a still but not quiet companion.

It turned out a cheerful and handy little bag, big enough to host the essential things and small enough to wear it as a chic accessory.

Have a beautiful day, my dears!

Between Summer and Autumn

I'm still making Colibri little bags. I'm trying to fit the shape with the fabric print.

Because I didn't have fabric suitable for making bags, I tried my hand on two pieces of white fabric.

I painted one thinking about summer:

I like how the puffy paint gives a 3D layout.

 

 

and the other one thinking about autumn:

Nothing spectacular, but now I have what I need in no time and without spending any money.

Back to work!

Have a beautiful day!

...and on...

In the last post I said I don't know how will turn out my gift-to be.
Well, I didn't manage to bound things together. They didn't match up.Time spent for nothing.
Pure and simple.

But  don't forget: today is International Women's Day (8 March), a global day celebrating the economic, political and social achievements of women past, present and future.

Let's party, then!

Have a beautiful weekend, my dears!

Moving on

A new gift on my work table. No, not for me. I'm making it for someone born in...February. Well, that's it! I'm late. And above that not sure how this will turn out.
For now sneak a peek:

July 15

Si uite-asa, am ajuns la jumatatea verii.
Cu arsita cu tot.
39 de grade Celsius, acum, in Marele Oras.
Dar lui Iulie nu-i putem reprosa nimic; degeaba i se spune "luna lui cuptor"?

Simt nevoia unor imprimeuri colorate, vesele, usoare, vii, florale, geometrice, nu stiu cum, dar ...altfel....sa le transform in tot felul de lucruri utile si frumoase.
N-am, asa ca ce-ar fi sa-mi amintesc cum se manuiesc vopselele. Dar nu pe hartie, ci pe panza.
Caut prin cutiile cu bucati de materiale si gasesc cateva de doc alb.
Deschid cutia cu vopsele si pensule si dau sa incep. E alba panza, alb e si in capul meu. A trecut atata timp decand n-am mai folosit vopselele, ca mi-e frica sa nu stric panza.
Imi vine sa renunt.
Pana la urma  imi iau inima in dinti si incep sa-mi imaginez ba una, ba alta....

Desi nu-mi plac dulciurile, simt nevoia de ceva dulce.
Tai o felie de paine adevarata si pun pe ea un pic din gem adevarat de caise (adica facute acasa).

Mananc incet (asa cum nu fac de obicei) si dupa ce termin ma intorc la bucatile de panza.

Mi se mai limpezesc gandurile si trec la cusut.

.....Si gata pentru primele poze:

Cam asta a iesit pana acum.
Sa vedem mai departe.

Sa aveti o saptamana frumoasa!
Have a beautiful week!
