Foxes' pillowcases and new tatting project

Hello dear readers!
These New Year holidays were very busy. My mother in law were with us here and we were traveling a lot and I didn't have enough time to sew. In spite of this hot time I could complete my  pillowcases, so here they are

I love them a lot because I like the orange color. The foxes' personage for these pillowcases came to my mind when I saw my friends' dog, I love this dog so much and she looks and behaves like a fox.
When we were in the eastern part of Sydney I found an interesting fabric shop, prices there were reasonable and I bought fabric for tunic and dress for my daughter. As decorative element for the tunic I decided to make tatted lace. So I've started the process and made one element.

The pattern for this element I took here. This blog belongs to a very talented  woman. Thanks her a lot for this pattern. I couldn't say that it's very easy pattern, it's necessary to know how to make a cluny leaf. I specially took a lesson for it last week. So it's not difficult when someone explain. I've got a good explanation, many thanks Lyall, my teacher.

Thank you for your visit. I'll appreciate your comments. See you soon. 

Some pleasant stuffs

Hello dear readers!
Yesterday I completed  two  small projects: decor for my daughter's dress and small bracelet.

I used for this stuffs cotton threads and Gutterman beads.

And in conclusion I want to show you a smaaall bag. I made it long time ago just for fun. The size of this bag is 3,5x3,5 cm.

Enjoy your day. Thank you for your visit. See you soon.

My progress and process

Hello dear readers!
Hope you are well. After my tatting class I've had a hard practice with shuttle and here it is a result.

I used these details to a new umbrella brooch with a  hydrangea flower.

Thank you for your visit and comments. See you soon.

Case for tattinng needle and hooks and stitched heart

Hello dear readers!
This days were not very sunny and it impacts on my winter mood a lot so I brought back to memory the old file cover with a winter style heart which I made more than year ago. The stitched heart on this cover is very interesting, I trained new ways to stitch. So here it is.

 The bags shown earlier are still in process  and I decided to apply my new tatted stuffs for the case  where I can keep my tatting needle and hooks.

So I'm still training to tat. I'm appointed the class  to learn how to tat with shuttle. So tomorrow I'm going to be enlighted :-) And now new stuffs I made with needle.

Thank you for your visit. See you soon.

Clover bag and tatting rose

Hello!
My studying is in progress but I've already applied the tatted lace for new bag. This bag is for my tatting supplies. I'm still trying to get friends with the shuttle and it's unsuccessful so all the tatting lace for this bag was made with needle.  Please meet:

This is the rose from Japanese book. It's very easy to make.

Thank you for your visit. See you soon. Enjoy your day.

Rose bag

Hello!
As I've announced in the previous post I made a new bag. It's unusual project for me because of  shape and the ways of decoration. I used hand quilting  here and I don't use it very often in my projects, I made fabric roses using the rococo way for ribbons and created the report (tutorial) how I made them. For the front side of the bag where is hexagons' panel I implemented the English paper piecing  way. So here the photos:

The bag has a pocket and key keeper inside.

And promised tutorial for roses

Thank for your visit. Enjoy your day.

Make my new home cozy

      So we found a new place for living. This is a beautiful area in the Hills District, Sydney. There are many lovely houses and plants around here. I think everyone who lives here is happy to see this scenery every day. There are orange trees near roads, vivid gardens everywhere and I decided to reflect all my impressions on the pillow.

     I used here many things which were new for me. Usually I make a picture with painting or cross stitching but I've wanted to try Rococo method of stitching in this case. It was really interesting experience. When I looked for a Rococo style description the Internet I  met  many photos with vintage Rococo and was so impressed how popular it is. I joined fans.  Here it is my result that I've got.

May be my experience will be useful. Thanks for reading. See you soon in Cozzyland.
