Dancing Tote

Since Alana started her dancing classes I wanted to give her a tote so she could store all her dancing things there. then I came with and idea to make one on my own. I had all the fabric I just had to buy the zipper. I also wanted to use piping and because I just had done it once before I decided to look on the internet (my greatest teacher). I found this group of video tutorials very helpful. I also quilt all the bag.
Desde que Ala empezo sus clases de Balet he querido darle una bolsa para sus cosas y me llego la inspiracion de hacerle este bolso con zapatillas en aplique y usando piping, como solamente otra vez he hecho piping decidi reenforzar mis conocimientos y buscando en el Internet escontre este grupo de videotutoriales muy bueno. Ademas lo acolche todo.

Happy sewing

Nice celebration

Last night we celebrated Hubby's birthday. The girls help me to make him his favorite cake, German Chocolate. The Girls help daddy to set the candles, blow them and cutting the cake. I think they had more fun than daddy.
Ayer por la noche celebramos el cumpleanos de mi esposo. Las ninas me ayudaron a hacer su pastel favorito, Chocolate Aleman. Las ninas ayudaron a papa a poner las velitas, apagar las velitas y a cortar el pastel. Creo que las ninas se divirtieron mas que el papa.

Happy Thursday

Learning to Stitch

Last summer I ask my 5 years old to take a video of me showing how to do back stitch to somebody.
She did it and I send the video to my friend, an hour after that I found this...

El verano pasado le pedi a mi hija de 5 anos que me ayudara a tomar un video de mi ensenando como hace back stitch para una amiga.
Ella lo hizo y yo mande el video a mi amiga, una hora despues me encontre con esto...

So she decided to keep going and I made some more pictures for her. After some blocks done I decided to do something to preserve this wonderful job so I make a quilt.

Entonces ella decidio segir adelante asi que hice mas dibujos para ella. Despues de algunas figuras terminadas decidi hacer algo para preservar el magnifico trabajo de mi hija asi que hice un acolchado.
Basically she use a rainbow of colors.
Basicamente ella uso un arcoiris de colores.
And this is de final Quilt
Y este fue el resultado final
If any one wants to teach her little one how to stitch with this pattern or you want it just for fun let me know and I can send you a PDF with the fruits.

Si a alguien le interesa ensenarle a sus pequenas como bordar con este patron o simplemente ustedes lo quieren para si solo pidanmelo y les enviare un PDF con los dibujos de las frutas.

Aprons

Last Summer Mom ask me to make an apron for her friend, but because we move I just get done with it.
El verano pasado mi Mama me pidio que le hiciera un delantal para su amiga pero como me cambie de casa apenas lo pude hacer.

I use a Gobble Gobble Charm Pack by Sandy Gervais for moda fabrics, one fat quart and one yard of the same line for the back. This material let me make 2 Aprons one for mom and one for her friend.

She said she loves it.

Use un Charm Pack de la linea Gobble Gobble de Moda, un fat quart y una yarda de la misma tela para la parte de atras. Toda esta tela me alcanzo para hacer dos delantales, uno para mamay otro para su amiga.

Se lo ensene y dice que le gustaron mucho.
