Last Quilt for 2009: Table Runner

January 8, 2010 in BLOG, ENGLISH, Holidays, patchwork, quilt by domoshar | No comments

This is the last patchwork made in 2009.

A custom order for a table runner. Love the colours on it. It is Christmas like, but too much Christams in there. It could a nice Valentine or just a stylish red and white table addition.

I have made a few table runners with similar look – same pattern, different colours. This is the boldest. The contrast between red and and the whites is really strong and the red vivid. But the white/ecru combo softens it and adds style.

The back is burgundy deep red with ecru quilting on it.

More pictures on Flickr. A lot actually. I took 100+ pictures and changed most to “private” not to bother people on Flickr… The first time I do it.

The table runner will be added to my etsy shop as another custom table runner tomorrow.

Preparing for Christmas…

November 8, 2009 in BLOG, ENGLISH, Holidays, make it by domoshar | No comments

I had to admit that I have not sewn anything for this Christmas yet.

I have tried some ideas, sketched and tested… but I have nothing ready yet… Despite of starting making patterns in August…Yes, this picture of craft paper patterns in my kitchen was taken in August and I have only cut a few fabric pieces so far…

Today my studio received a new table. Not the one I wanted, but an old trusty stable table I like and I am planning some sewing pretty soon. With these same August patterns of course!

Wish me good luck. The flu school vacation was prolonged with one more week – the next one. Hopefully I will be sewing regularly despite of it. I am happy it took place actually, as it really helps keep children healthy and as the sun is shining, we have walks and play.. it is all okay..

Time for Gifts! Christmas is so close!

November 6, 2009 in BLOG, ENGLISH, Holidays, eshop, etsy, make it by domoshar | No comments

It is a warm sunny day today. Unlike the cold ones earlier this week. But Christmas is closer every day and I really love this.

Time to make some gifts and really feel the Holiday season. It started here actually. And I am happy it did!

Need to make some extra packaging aids next week. I love the look of crisp paper and fresh labels. I have no woven ones to attach to my creations, so printed ones are my labeling eye candy LOL

Swaps: SSCS Received in US

December 21, 2008 in BLOG, ENGLISH, Holidays, make it, swap by domoshar | 2 comments

It was not an easy decision what to send to someone I do not know. I read and kept reading the blog. Still I did not find too many clues… So I choose something useful, something red for Christmas, something blue to make it appropriate for every season, something Bulgarian and something crafty to play with. Seemed like a good present recipe…

Karen likes it, so it was!
Thank you Chookyblue! I would not experience the magic to be a Santa Clause assistant without you! Merry Christmas!

Boutique Update: Kitchen Accsessories

November 28, 2008 in BLOG, ENGLISH, Holidays, eshop, make it by domoshar | No comments

I love all the little details that make Christmas and December special. Spices, orange, apple and cinnamon scents, a fruit cake in the oven, red bows and candles, little red  details sparkling almost everywhere, these some of the things that create the Christmas magic.

This is the first Christmas of my online boutique, and its preparation was a bit delayed by some November issues. But I have some holiday-spirited items in it now. And they are made of fabric! Coasters in red ,red+blue and blue, and oven mitts in red & blue.

I do like the paper angels and the other cards that will make it to the shop soon, but nice oven mitts in red make head to the kitchen and bake a cake just because /though I bake only bread regularly for now/. So I am happy I added them to the shop.

PS: A bunch of these will go to the people I love, wrapped for Christmas. I hope they do not read the English posts here!
I actually started sewing these as gifts and them made some more for the boutique.

Boutique Update: Angel Christmas Cards

November 26, 2008 in BLOG, ENGLISH, cards, eshop by domoshar | No comments

You might remember my little give away. It was all made in attempt to bring the holiday season closer.
As it is officially holiday preparation time now, I started stocking my little boutique with Christmas items.

These lovely little angels made it to the online shop a couple of weeks ago. They are double folded iris paper folding cards. All hand made by me and accompanied by ecru envelopes /also hand made by me/.

I will soon add some new designs but this one is one of my favorite so it is the first one to shown in the cards section of the shop.

I am now adding some little fabric/quilted gifts too.

I can finally show you the cards, that will be send to one of the nice and kind visitors of my blog. They will have handmade envelopes in pale pink or ecru, depending what the recipient will prefer. Each card will be packed in a sealed plastic bag together with its envelop.

When I wrote that if there is only one commenter, he/she will get the cards… well, I really meant it – I was not sure I would have more than one comment. Although I am a positive person, I did not expect so many and warm comments. Thank you!!!

I promised to show you the cards in a couple of days after announcing the giveaway… It happened to be almost a week later, so I will extend the giveaway period for few more days – the lucky person will be announced here on October 20th, and the give away post and this post will be open for comments until October 19th, 19pm GMT.
In case you missed the giveaway rules, you can check them here.
