on the road again

it is once more workshop time for me! i am going to the same cute small city that i went last year, hubby, students and all. i know, i know! gotta see some images! they are-a coming, don't worry...

beware

agg! my scraps are becoming visible slowly. please wait, some pictures are coming soon! workshop craziness all over:)

i am no good

i can't believe i have not been blogging for 11 days. 11 days! i am preparing the workshop, though. slowly. what can i say, everything is kind of crazy currently. the rollercoaster spring weather is not helping too much, either. does it help you?

it's not a sewing machine commercial, either

these days you can't take a photo of an object without getting the logo in the viewer. so, this guy is the crazy machine that helps me to and sometimes prevents me from sewing my stuff! hehe, you might say 'what is so fancy about this thing? it's an ordinary sewing machine, that's it!' no, it's not. never in my life would i imagine to have one of these, much less use one. and i don't plan to sew my own trousers in the near future.

i must warn you, though. the guy sometimes eats fabric... lots of it.

this is not a bank commercial

so... slowly i am getting there. i will try to find some fancy fabric from the stores around here. i hate the 'scrappy' look so far. will i ever be able to make this look professional? although... i'm not annoyed by the stripes that much. now how to fit a bag in this thing...i am not sure how to get the curved stitch, either. i'll tell you when i'm done experimenting.

i can't quite pinpoint why this is taking me so long.

hehe next i will talk about the hero (and sometimes villain) behind all this needlework.

tippy tips...

look what i found as i was surfing around: a shattering tutorial! i was amazed by the quality of the cube shattering. the free version of the plugin doesn't work, though.

sorry, non-cg folks:) tune in soon for more babblings...
