Há muito tempo que não fazia um mini vestido destes... mas fui inspirada por um tecido lindo que a Rita me disponibilizou!
Ficou giro?
I haven't done one of these newborn baby dresses in a long time... but i was inspired by this wonderful fabric Rita let me have!

Cada ponto.... Each stitch...
A prayer... Uma prece...
uma lágrima, um sorriso... todos os meus pensamentos estão com o Manuel... e depois dia 7, quando tudo correu bem, eu respiro!a tear, a smile... all my thoughts are with Manuel... and after the 7th, when all went well, i breath!
Este quilt vai a caminho para ele, para que eu esteja junto a ele nos momentos mais difíceis...
This quilt is on it's way, so that i am with him... in hard times...

Spring panel...
In my mailbox
E do outro lado do mundo...
This week i received two lovely pacages... one from here, this wonderful woman, full of inner strength who still has time to be generous.... and from the other side of the world...
Este outro pacote de surpresas... daqui... Confesso que nunca tinha tido o prazer de desfolhar uma revista japonesa, e é fantástico... Esta tem muitas ideias e todas de um bom gosto indescritível... um destes tecidos já foi usado:) Já vos mostro!
This other pacage of surprises... from here... I confesse i had never seen a Japanese magazine... it's fantastic... full of great ideas with very good taste... One of these fabrics was already used... i will show you:)
Thank you so much... how sweet you both are!!!

Selvedge

Porque será... é cara... demais... ainda assim não lhe consigo resistir! Felizmente raramente aparece no quiosque da esquina.
Why is it i just can't resiste? Its expensive... and i am glad I can't always find it!
In a woven fabric, the selvage (or selvedge) is the uncut edge of the fabric which is on the right- and left-hand edges as it comes out of the loom. As such it is 'finished' and will not fray because the weft threads double back on themselves.
Very often fabric near the selvage is not usable as it may have a different weave pattern, or may lack pile or prints that are present on the rest of the fabric requiring that the selvage fabric be cut off or hidden in a hem.

Thirfting.... and my quilt!
Ok.... So, this is how my quilt is going... i have decided to leave my first "square" on stand by and try to do my first quilt like Rita recomended... Keep it simple. And guess what? It's working. I have the squares all in place, and am now stitching them together.

Shopping bag swap!!!
Vamos fazer uma troca de sacos de compras?
Eu faço dois para trocar com duas de vós... quem quer? Sacos de pano que podemos ter nas nossas malas e usar em vez dos sacos do super mercado... parece pouco, mas se todos fizessem isso, quantos sacos menos andariam por aí?
Quem alinha? Data limite do swap é 31/10/2007!
Lets make a shopping bag swap?
I will make two to trade with two of you? Who'is in? Fabric bags we can carry in our shoulder bag to use instead of the plastic you get in the supermarket? It seems so little, but imagine how much plastic we could keep away from the planet if everyone would carry his own?
Who's in? Due date for swap 31/10/2007

Autumn/Outono...
E lembra aconchego de bebés... (novo pouche) and remindes me of baby cuddling (new pouche)
Also, in autumn i need more calories... so there, 3 cheers for pancakes!
Também no Outono preciso de mais calorias... por isso, 3 vivas para panquecas!

Quando se tem Férias... when you're on Holidays...
Temos mais tempo para fazer coisas que gostamos... juntar coisas...
We have more time to do what you enjoy... getting things together...
E encontramos outras coisas que precisam ser feitas, como reparar esta boneca que fiz no nono ano:)
And we find other things that need to be done, like repairing this doll i made in grade 9.

Pay it forward...
I joined in a fun swap "Pay it Forward". Do you want to play ?
Rules are simple.No stress ( given the time frame!). Here's the "promise":
I will send a handmade gift to the first 3 people who leave a comment on my blog requesting to join this PIF exchange. I don't know what that gift will be yet and you may not receive it tomorrow or next week... ... but you will receive it within 365 days, that is my promise! The only thing you have to do in return is pay it forward by making the same promise on your blog.
Todos entenderam?
