V-am mai spus oare cit de bine e sa lucrezi impreuna ? sa cosi patchwork impreuna cu o prietena ??
am inceput un quilt de Craciun cu aceste benzi
at the beginning, on my Brother sewing machine , Beverley was quite... ( read on her lips :)) )
la inceput , cosind cu masina mea Brother, se pare ca Beverley era chiar.....( cititi-i pe buze :)) )
did I mention working together ? well, here I am, me too, sewing on my beloved old Bernina ( wow, what an antique sewing machine means! she sew just wonderful! )
am spus cumva sa lucrezi impreuna ?? ei bine, sunt si eu pe aici, cosind cu din nou indragita Bernina ( wow! ce inseamna o masina de cusut veche. Coase minunat! )
here's Beverleys' first finished block. Look what a proud big smile she has
aici este primul block terminat de Beverley. Uitati ce zimbet mindru si larg are
And here is having not quite so big smile, but more a tired and satisfied one . I believe her just because we manage to sew ALL the blocks in just 5 hours ( of course this included lunch, tea time and consequences of it ;), phones, sms and a lot of laughter and giggle)
Iar aici are un zimbet nu tocmai la fel de larg dar la fel de mindru si satisfacut pe deasupra. Si o cred pentru ca , impreuna, am reusit sa coasem in doar 5 ore TOATE acele blocuri ( bineee, 5 ore in care includem prinzul. ceaiurile si consecintele acestuia, telefoanele si sms-urile plus multe risete si chicoteli)
and I mean ALL of those 90 blocks. Yep.... A lot of sewing, some un-sew to do , too :)), ironing and all related stuff.
It will be a large and Christmas quilt !
si ma refer la TOATE cele 90 blocuri. Mda. O gramada de cusut, putin de des-cusut :)), calcat si tot restul....
Va fi un quilt de Craciun mare si minunat !
Next week we'll meet for the assemblage and perhaps sandwiching it....it was such a fun to sew beside a friend....a lot to learn ( english of course) a lot to laugh....
Meanwhile outside is summer....a capricious one.
Saptamina viitoare ne vom intilni din nou pentru a-l asambla si face sandwich-ul. A fost distractiv sa cos linga prietena mea....a multime de invatat ( engleza, desigur ) si multe risete....
Intre timp afara e vara. O vara capricioasa...
In the garden is quiet ...inside is quiet....
In gradina este liniste.....in interior este liniste....
outside is quiet...
afara e liniste....
I was caught without my knowing , while I talked to Goldie...teaching her all the stuff about weeds :))
Am fost surprinsa - fara stirea mea - intr-o poza , povestindu-i lui Goldie totul despre buruieni :))
and she seems to understand me...her personal way to deal this problem is to step right on them ;).
Si se pare ca ma intelege....oricum ea prefera un stil putin mai personal ca sa trateze aceasta problema : le calca, pur si simplu ;).
Quiet and green...my tomatoes are still green...a lot of them but still green...being green it's the "in-thing", you know ;)...
Liniste si verde....rosiile mele sunt totusi verzi....o multime de rosii verzi :))...sa fii "verde" in ziua de azi e la moda ;)...
a small and very organic garden...just compost and nothing else chemical...
o gradina micuta si foarte organica....doar compost si nimic altceva chimic in ea....
and the last picture...for today. I do hope that my bamboo will survive the following winter in this new spot....I'm in love with bamboo...I dream of having a bamboo forest.....
si ultima poza...pentru azi . Sper ca bambusul plantat in noul loc sa supravietuiasca iernii care vine....Ador bambusul....Visez la o padure de bambus...
Well, how's your garden ?
Si gradina voastra, cum este ?
