			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">The tittle of this post is a bit tricky I think, because its called &#8220;Japanese embroidery&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&#8230;hmmm I´m not sure if what I did could be called japanese or even embroidery..hehe</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">But I sure was inspired by the cute japanese embroidery books out<a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/80398710/small-cute-embroidery-enjoy-my-handmade?ref=from_your_favorite_listings" target="_blank"> there</a> : )</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">EL título de este post es un poco curioso , porque se llama &#8220;bordado japonés&#8221;.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">mmmm no estoy segura de que lo que hice se pueda llamar japonés o ni siquiera bordado..jeje</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Pero sin duda alguna me inspiré en esos libros tan bonitos de bordado japonés que venden por <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/80398710/small-cute-embroidery-enjoy-my-handmade?ref=from_your_favorite_listings" target="_blank">ahí</a>.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/embroidery-065.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6637" title="embroidery 065" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/embroidery-065.jpg" alt="" width="538" height="806" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">These are the steps I followed&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #000000;">1.-draw with a pencil a little girl on the linnen fabric.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Éstos son los pasos que seguí:</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">1.Dibujar con lápiz una niña en la tela de lino</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/embroidery-01.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6638" title="embroidery 01" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/embroidery-01.jpg" alt="" width="522" height="783" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I was inspired by this stamp : )</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Me inspiró éste sello : )</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/embroidery-02.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6639" title="embroidery 02" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/embroidery-02.jpg" alt="" width="529" height="793" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">2.All I did next was stitch along the pencil line</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">2.-Lo que hice después fue coser con la puntada más sencilla encima del lápiz.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/mebroidery-03.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6640" title="mebroidery 03" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/mebroidery-03.jpg" alt="" width="522" height="783" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">3.- Sew the little dress on top,..</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">3.Coser el trocito de tela que será un vestidito encima..</span></p>

<p style="text-align: center;">4.-Embroider a ribbon on her hair : )</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">4. Bordar un lacito en su pelo : )</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/embroidery-06.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6642" title="embroidery 06" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/embroidery-06.jpg" alt="" width="538" height="806" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">5.-A small flower and some japanese words..like &#8220;konichiwa&#8221; ; )</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">5.-Una pequeña flor y algunas palabras japonesas como &#8220;konichiwa&#8221;: )</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/embroidery-07.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6643" title="embroidery 07" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/embroidery-07.jpg" alt="" width="523" height="784" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">Ever since I saw this apple cosy on the cover of <a href="http://molliemakes.themakingspot.com/" target="_blank">Mollie Makes</a>, I´ve been wanting to make one! they are so irresistibly cute!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">But I dont know how to crochet! not one single bit! So a very dear friend of mine made it for me! ♥</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Desde que ví una funda para manzana como ésta en la portada de la revista <a href="http://molliemakes.themakingspot.com/" target="_blank">Mollie Makes</a> he querido hacer una! son irresistiblemente bonitas!</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Pero el problema es que no tengo ni idea de hacer ganchillo! Así es que una amiga muy querida la hizo para mí! ♥</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/apple-cosy-04.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6446" title="apple cosy 04" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/apple-cosy-04.jpg" alt="" width="522" height="783" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">There are lots of patterns on the internet on how to make one.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">My friend didn´t need it because she said it was very simple.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">But <a href="http://issuu.com/futurepub/docs/molliemakes-issue1subssampler?mode=embed&amp;layout=http%3A%2F%2Fskin.issuu.com%2Fv%2Fdark%2Flayout.xml&amp;showFlipBtn=true." target="_blank">here´s</a> the link to the original pattern in case you want to make one : )</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">En internet hay muchos patrones que te dicen cómo hacerte una.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Mi amiga no lo necesitó porque vió que era un proyecto muy sencillo</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Pero os dejo el </span><a href="http://issuu.com/futurepub/docs/molliemakes-issue1subssampler?mode=embed&amp;layout=http%3A%2F%2Fskin.issuu.com%2Fv%2Fdark%2Flayout.xml&amp;showFlipBtn=true." target="_blank"><span style="color: #333399;"> link  de la revista</span></a><span style="color: #333399;"> <a href="http://issuu.com/futurepub/docs/molliemakes-issue1subssampler?mode=embed&amp;layout=http%3A%2F%2Fskin.issuu.com%2Fv%2Fdark%2Flayout.xml&amp;showFlipBtn=true." target="_blank">aquí</a> por si acaso ; ) y otro en español </span><a href="http://www.amigurumis4you.com/article-patron-gratuito-funda-manzana-76477788.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #333399;">aquí </span></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/apple-cos7-o5.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6447" title="apple cos7 o5" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/apple-cos7-o5.jpg" alt="" width="504" height="756" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">What I would recommend is to make a few with different sizes, because not all the apples will fit in the same one.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">And if you use different yarn colors, you can have a set of  cosies as cute at<a href="http://www.chasingtheyarn.co.uk/2011/05/mollie-makes-magazine.html" target="_blank"> these!</a> ♥</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Lo que sí  os recomiendo  es que si podéis hagáis varios porque no todas las manzanas tienen el mismo tamaño. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Y si alternáis colores tendréis una serie de &#8220;abriguitos&#8221; monísimos como <a href="http://www.chasingtheyarn.co.uk/2011/05/mollie-makes-magazine.html" target="_blank">éstos</a> ♥</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/apple-cosy-01.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6444" title="apple cosy 01" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/apple-cosy-01.jpg" alt="" width="504" height="756" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Once finished just add a cute little button! I prefere the wooden ones : )</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Una vez listo sólo falta añadirle el botón!   A mí me gustan los de madera : )</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/apple-cosy-02.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6448" title="apple cosy 02" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/apple-cosy-02.jpg" alt="" width="522" height="783" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Oh I just love how we have the need to embellish everything in life&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Does an apple really need a cosy? not at all but it just looks so cute! ha! ; )</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Me encanta cómo los seres humanos tenemos la necesidad de embellecerlo todo ..</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">¿ Necesita una manzana realmente un abriguito? No.En absoluto.Pero queda TAN mona&#8230; ; )</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">Firts of all forgive me, because todays photos came out so bad.. But I still wanted to show you a little project I did some weeks ago that perhaps you like and want to try : )</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Antes que nada, perdonad las fotos de hoy porque salieron tan mal..Pero no he querido dejar de ponerlas porque seguro que os gusta el proyecto que vengo a compartiros y quizá os apetezca intentarlo después : )</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Picnik-collage.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5807" title="Picnik collage" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Picnik-collage.jpg" alt="" width="614" height="614" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">It ocurred to me to take a rubber stamp I liked and stamp it on a piece of white cotton fabric and then &#8220;embroider&#8221; or stitch on top of it.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">This is the  result:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Se me ocurrió un día estampar unos sellos de caucho que compré hace tiempo y me gustan mucho sobre un  retal de tela blanca de algodón.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Luego coser encima, siguiendo el dibujo del sello y éste fue el resultado:</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/IMG_6493.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5804" title="IMG_6493" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/IMG_6493.jpg" alt="" width="513" height="769" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Truth be told, i dont know how to embroider, so this flower is made with the simple stitch you use for sewing!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Oh and french knotts I learned how to make them <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ul8XT72oA68" target="_blank">on youtube</a>! They are very easy and fun!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">La verdad sea dicha no sé bordar! Esta flor está hecha con la puntada más sencilla de todas que se utilizan para coser!</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Los nudos franceses sí que quería aprenderlos, así es que busqué un <a href="http://www.hilosylanas.com/2007/10/26/%C2%BF-como-bordar-con-nudo-frances-video/" target="_blank">video en youtube</a>! son muy fáciles y entretenidos!</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/IMG_6495.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5805" title="IMG_6495" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/IMG_6495.jpg" alt="" width="513" height="769" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I just combined four diferent colors of thread to give it interest and contrast and turned the fabric into a pillow.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Combiné cuatro colores diferentes de hilos para dar constraste e interés y convertí la tela de algódón en una funda de almohada.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/IMG_6498.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5806" title="IMG_6498" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/IMG_6498.jpg" alt="" width="513" height="769" /></a> Later on ,I found out the sale <a href="http://www.spottedcanary.com/Rubber_Stamp_Embroidery.htm" target="_blank">special ink </a>for this purpose!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I really, really love my new pillow cover! It did take time, but it couldnt be easier to &#8220;embroider&#8221; and I  enjoyed it so much!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Feel like giving it a try?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Más tarde me enteré que vendían <a href="http://www.spottedcanary.com/Rubber_Stamp_Embroidery.htm" target="_blank">tinta especial</a> para hacer ésto!</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Me gusta mucho cómo quedó la funda de almohada! Es cierto que llevó su tiempo, pero no pudo haber sido más fácil de &#8220;bordar&#8221; y lo disfrute tanto!</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Os apetecería intentarlo?</span></p>

<p style="text-align: center;">I wont be showing you anything &#8220;new &#8221; today, because this idea of framing fabric using embroidery hoops is very old, but I hadn´t tried it until now and I love it!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">No os enseñaré nada &#8220;nuevo&#8221; hoy,porque esta idea de enmarcar retales de tela con aros para bordar es muy vieja,pero no la había probado hasta ahora y me encanta!</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/o1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5632" title="o1" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/o1.jpg" alt="" width="513" height="769" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I used my two last pieces of favorite fabric to hang them on the wall using this method : )</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Aproveché los últimos dos trocitos que quedaban de mis telas favoritas para colgarlas de esta forma en la pared : )</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/IMG_2621.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5633" title="IMG_2621" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/IMG_2621.jpg" alt="" width="513" height="769" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Its a great way to display them, isn´t?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Es una manera fantástica de mostrarlas, no creéis?</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Picnik-collage.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5634" title="Picnik collage" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Picnik-collage.jpg" alt="" width="614" height="614" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Here are some examples of different swatches of fabric and different sizes of embroidery hoops.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">An easy , pretty and creative way to decorate a wall : )</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">By the way, <a href="http://lindsaychristensendesign.com/blog/2009/11/11/embroidery-hoop-la/" target="_blank">Likely design</a> wrote a great post showing ALL the different ways you can use an embroidery hoop! very inspiring ! check it out!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Así es como se ve con muchas telas distintas y aros de diferente tamaño </span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Una forma fácil, bonita y creativa de decorar una pared : )</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Por cierto <a href="http://lindsaychristensendesign.com/blog/2009/11/11/embroidery-hoop-la/" target="_blank">Likely design</a> escribió un post en su blog sobre TODAS las formas, o muchas maneras, de utilizar los aros para bordar!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">A few week ago I stumbled upon this great <a href="http://verypurpleperson.com/2010/04/making-reversible-bag.html" target="_blank">reversible bag tutorial</a> made by Novita ( who is by the way, an amazing seamstress ) from the blog <a href="http://verypurpleperson.com/" target="_blank">very purple person</a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">It was exactly what i was looking for! So I decided to give it a try <img src='http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Hace unas semanas me topé con </span><a href="http://verypurpleperson.com/2010/04/making-reversible-bag.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #333399;">éste tutorial </span></a><span style="color: #333399;">sobre cómo coser un bolso reversible por Novita ( que es por cierto una costurera maravillosa) ,del blog </span><a href="http://verypurpleperson.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #333399;">very purple person</span></a><span style="color: #333399;">.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Era exáctamente lo que estaba buscando , así es que decidí intentarlo : )</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/reversible.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5606" title="reversible" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/reversible.jpg" alt="" width="737" height="373" /></a><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/rb1.jpg"></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I even loved it more because it was reversible! So I chose for this purpose a white and blue cotton check fabric and linen.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Me gustó todavía más por ser reversible! Así es que escogí una tela de cuadritos azules y blancos y lino color crudo.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/rb1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5607" title="rb1" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/rb1.jpg" alt="" width="598" height="896" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">It was my first time sewing a bag  ( all by my self) and I had so much fun!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I think it took me about three hours to finish the bag. There were I couple of steps I had a hard time figuring out how to solve, but finally I did and It came out so nice : )</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Era la primera vez que cosía un bolso yo sola y me divertí mucho!</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Creo que me llevó unas tres horas terminarlo. Sí que hubo un par de pasos que me resultaron difíciles,por ser la primera vez,pero una vez resueltos cobraron sentido.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/IMG_6944.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5608" title="IMG_6944" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/IMG_6944.jpg" alt="" width="560" height="840" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I had a red flower fabric brooch I had made long time ago and I thought it would be perfect for the bag!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Tenía una flor de tela roja que había hecho hacía tiempo y fue un complemento contrastante perfecto para el bolso!</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Picnik-collage2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5609" title="Picnik collage2" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Picnik-collage2.jpg" alt="" width="717" height="362" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Now I cant wait to sew more! : )</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Ahora no puedo esperar a coser más! : )</span></p>

<p style="text-align: center;">See the pillow cover below? well, It took me about a year to finish it! LOL Not because it  was difficult to sew, but because I had completely forgotten about it!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I had cut the fabric pieces last april of 2010 and recently found them inside a box. So it was definitely time to sew it up!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">¿Véis la funda del cojín de abajo? Pues me tomó un año terminarla! jaja, no porque fuera dificil en realidad, sino porque la había olvidado!</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Tenía los cuadraditos de tela cortados desde Abril del 2010 y recientemente los encontré en un caja.!!</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/pw.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5577" title="pw" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/pw.jpg" alt="" width="605" height="907" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">They are a mix of japanese cotton and linen fabrics.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Son una mezcla de telas japonesas de algodón y lino.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/pillow2h.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5578" title="pillow2h" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/pillow2h.jpg" alt="" width="770" height="438" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Many of the fabric squares dont even match! But I still love it : )</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I really enjoyed sewing it ( except for the zipper part). In fact I enjoyed it so much that I went ahead and sewed two more for my sons. They chose the fabrics they liked and then I left some white cotton squares for them to paint with fabric markers.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Muchos de los cuadraditos ni siqueira concuerdan,pero no me importa porque aun así me encanta! : )Disfruté mucho cosiéndola  ( a excepción de la parte de la cremallera).</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;">Tanto que me animé e hice otras dos para mis hijos con telas que ellos mismos eligieron y dejando algunos cuadradritos en blanco ,para que con rotuladores de tela dibujasen lo que quisieran : ) </span></p>

<p>My crazy sewing weekend started on a lovely Friday afternoon while I was watching this video of <a href="http://www.jansdotter.com/" target="_blank">Lotta Jansdotter</a> &#8230;</p>
<p><span style="color: #333399;">Mi locura de coser este fin de semana horas y horas sin parar, comenzó el Viernes por la tarde. Tranquilamente miraba este video que <a href="http://www.jansdotter.com/" target="_blank">Lotta Jansdotter </a>hizo para Rowenta y esa fue mi &#8220;perdición &#8221; ; )</span></p>

<p><a href="http://vimeo.com/11310007">How to Make Patchwork Coasters w/ Lotta Jansdotter</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/rowentausa">Rowenta USA</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p>
<p>I loved this video- tutorial  because it explains in a very simple way, how to sew these pot holders or coasters in  patchwork style . The best thing  about it, is that you can use your remnants of fabric from other projects, so its a great way to recycle!  &#8230; love the idea! So after who knows how many hours of cutting fabric watching the video,sewing,watching  the video again, and more sewing &#8230; this was the result:</p>
<p><span style="color: #333399;">Este video-tutorial me encantó porque explica de manera muy  sencilla,cómo coser estos &#8220;agarra ollas&#8221; estilo patchwork  y aunque está en inglés, se entiende todo muy bien. Lo mejor es que es muy divertido elegir las telas que vas a combinar y que puedas utilizar los trocitos de tela de otros proyectos, aprovechas y reciclas!&#8230;todo en esta idea es genial!Por eso quién sabe cuántas horas después de cortar tela, ver el video,coser,ver el video otra vez, y más coser&#8230;este fue el resultado:</span></p>

<p style="text-align: center;">A friend of mine just celebrated her birthday and of course I wanted to give her something made by hand, so I sewed this little rain cloud with white cotton fabric and turquoise felt for the rain drops <img src='http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff9900;">Una amiga mia acaba de celebrar su cumpleaños y por supuesto le quería regalar algo hecho por mí; así es que cosí esta nubecita de lluvia con algodón blanco y fieltro azul-turquesa para las gotas: )</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/IMG_3596.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4697" title="IMG_3596" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/IMG_3596.jpg" alt="" width="518" height="781" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">She just had a little baby boy, so this rain cloud will be hanged up in his room : )</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff9900;">Ha tenido un bebito, así es que esta nubecita adornará su habitación : )</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/IMG_3607.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4698" title="IMG_3607" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/IMG_3607.jpg" alt="" width="533" height="583" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I wonder who came up with the first idea of making a cloud mobile..they are all over the internet with different variations, such as the type of fabric or even diferent things hanging from it. You can find some examples<a href="http://www.smallable.com/en/1435/" target="_blank"> here,</a><a href="http://www.notonthehighstreet.com/sewsew/product/rain-cloud-mobile" target="_blank">here</a> and<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/therainbowroom/5197713467/" target="_blank"> here</a>. and whole lot more on <a href="http://www.etsy.com/search/handmade?q=cloud+mobile" target="_blank">Etsy</a> in case you want to buy one.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">It´s very easy to sew and I just love how it looks.<span style="color: #33cccc;">♥</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff9900;">Me pregunto quién tuvo la ide por primera vez de hacer un movil de nubecita..Están por todo internet ahora con diferentes variaciones, como el tipo de tela que utilizan, colores o incluso distintas cositas colgando. Podéis ver algunos ejemplos </span><a href="http://www.smallable.com/en/1435/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ff9900;">aquí </span></a><span style="color: #ff9900;">,</span><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/therainbowroom/5197713467/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ff9900;">aquí </span></a><span style="color: #ff9900;">y</span><a href="http://www.notonthehighstreet.com/sewsew/product/rain-cloud-mobile" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ff9900;"> aquí</span></a><span style="color: #ff9900;"> y en </span><a href="http://www.etsy.com/search/handmade?q=cloud+mobile" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ff9900;">Etsy</span></a><span style="color: #ff9900;">..muchisimos más! en caso de que os apetezca comprar una.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff9900;">Es muy fácil de coser y me encanta cómo se ve </span><span style="color: #33cccc;">♥</span></p>

<p style="text-align: center;">Hello Friends! how was your weekend? how are you?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I wont be able to post everyday, for two weeks! My kids have holidays so we will be spending more time outside and doing more things with them,like crafts! ; )</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Today though, I wanted to share a simple sewing project:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">inspired by a popular character from a book&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Hola amig@s!</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Qué tal vuestro fin de semana? cómo estáis?</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">No podré escribir todos los días durante dos semanas,porque mis hijos ya tienen vacaciones de Pascua  y pasaremos mucho tiempo fuera y haciendo otras cosas, como manualidades ; )</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Hoy sin embargo ,pensé en mostraros este sencillo proyecto de costura:</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Inspirado por un personaje de un cuento popular..</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/IMG_12532.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4602" title="IMG_1253" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/IMG_12532.jpg" alt="" width="538" height="806" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">It´s the first plush I´ve sewn since my <a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/2010/05/owl-softies/" target="_blank">owls!</a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Es el primer peluchito que coso desde los <a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/2010/05/owl-softies/" target="_blank">buhos!</a></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/IMG_12551.jpg"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4603" title="IMG_1255" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/IMG_12551.jpg" alt="" width="538" height="806" /></span></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Since I love so much japanese things ( including their cartoon face expressions)  I made her eyes and nose in that style.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">COmo me gustan mucho las cosas japonesas,( inclusive las esxpresiones faciales de los dibujos)hice sus ojos y nariz en ese estilo .</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/IMG_12651.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4604" title="IMG_1265" src="http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/IMG_12651.jpg" alt="" width="538" height="806" /></a> oh..and two red hearts on the back ♥</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">This little red was made with remnants of fabric, some new some old <img src='http://www.ishtarolivera.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I made one for me and one for my sister : )</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">So what do you think? want to give it a try?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">ah, ..y dos corazoncitos rojos detrás : )</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Este pequeña caperuza roja la hice con restos de telas que tenía. Algunos nuevos, otros viejos : )</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">cosí una para mí y otra para mi hermana : )</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Os animáis a hacer alguna?</span></p>
