Hello !
I'm back or I think I'm back to this little space and I've missed it.
I know I've said that in the past. . . but life gets in the middle, doesn't it ?
Or 2020 gets in the middle . . . let's not talk about 2020, right ?
Let's talk about our creative life and how grateful I am to have the hobbies I have.
Since I wrote here last time I have evolved as a maker, a lot. . .
I now have discover also the love for embroidery, and increase my passion for patchwork.
but what I love the most is that I have so many crafts to fall into depending on my time availability,
depending on my mood and depending on where I am also.
Like knitting is very portable, but sewing isnt, but then patchwork can be portable too, right ?
Today I wanted to pop in to show you my latest creations which combine all of my passions at the moment,
I love Christmas, is that a secret ?
I know some people dont love it and to be honest I think what I love most is the run up to Christmas,
more than the week where all is concentrated.
I love October, November and December . . . I love the coziness of those months, I love it when is cold.
Then, I know, I live in Madrid where we have gorgeous winters . . . I just love winter in Madrid.
It is cold but we have blue skies and it is sunny for the most part.
But I love rainy days too. .. there is something very romantic about rain that I love.
I'm babbling . . .
Back to my creations.
I was saying they combine all my passions.
Xmas, embroidery, sewing, patchwork and knitting. . .
The knitting part is because the bags are made to be project bags for knitting projects.
But that is what I had in mind and what my moment of RELAX is. . . knitting.
These are now up on my Etsy shop.
Aren't they cute ?
I think they are adorable !
I'm working on more but this all the Xmas fabric I had left at the moment. . .
It was my dream to make my little Etsy shop and that dream stands now more than ever before.
My main job is in the tourism industry . . . so that is now . . . well, let's leave at quite quiet. . .
So back to my happy place.
I have enjoyed so much making these bags,
and
I hope someone loves them too and makes someone as happy as I have felt while making them.
By the way. . . while I was making them I was listening to Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong . . . .oh !
and dreaming of a better world, or a better future for all.
Well now, I better go pick up my son from soccer training. . .
I do hope you are all well and safe
and that you find solace in your crafting. . .
What has been your favourite thing to make this year ?
Take Care and Stay Safe,
