Valentýnkový....

Jen tak jsem spíchla manželovi srdíčkový polštářek. Když bude ten Valentýn...tak proč ne?  On polštářky rád a já je zase ráda šiju. 

Šila jsem podle Blue Susan Makes ale trochu jsem si to zjednodušila. Látky jsem nezyhýbala dospod jen jsem je naaplikovala (pomocí nažehlovacího papíru) na látku a pak dvakrát v krajíčku prošila kolem dokola. Mám tuto techniku ráda. Po vyprání vypadá pořád dobře a netřepí se.

Prozatím je schovaný ve skříni a já už se moc těším na 14.2 až ho budu moct ukázat :)

Děkuji za návštevu a milé komentáře k předešlým příspěvkům!

Mějte se moc krásně.

Nove polstare / New pillows

Bylo na case prevlect do noveho kabatku. Polstare v obyvaku se mi okoukaly a tak vznikla nova sada. Postup jak usit hexagony najdete tady 

Mam z nich velkou radost :)

It was a time for new pillows. I wanted some change in my living room so I made a new set. As I mentioned in my last post I love hexagons if you want to know how to make them look here

 

Prikoupila jsme motylkove rezne platno a vnikly tyhle obri polstare, ktere jsou super pohodlne.

I bought some butterfly linen and made these huge pillows. I love them. They are so comfy.

Nedavno jsem na netu narazila na techniku "Disappearing 9 patch" tak jsem ji vyzkousela je to 9 sesitych ctvercu, ktere se roztrihaji a poskladaji jak je libo a znovu se sesijou. Opravdu dobra vychytavka :) a jak jednoduche!

Vypadaji takhle.

I came across this new technique "Disappearing 9 patch" I wanted to try. It is 9 square blocks from different fabrics sew together, then cut into 4 pieces rearranged and sew back together. Wow what a fun!

And it is fast and easy!

Mejte se krasne!

Have a lovely day!

Laskyplne polstarky / Made with love

Tak trochu jsem zase polstarkovala. Manzel mel narozeniny, tak jsem mu usila laskovy polstarek, ktery rika jednim slovem vse.... :) Takove male zbytkove siti me docela bavi :)

I have been making pillows again. My husband had a birthday so I made him this Love pillow. It was fun using my leftovers and scrappy binding is my favorite.

Ponevadz mi zbyly latky ze srdickoveho quiltu, vznikl tenhle polstarek, ktery jsem si opravdu zamilovala. Na quilt se muzete mrknout  tady.

Because I had some leftover fabrics from my wall hanging quilt I made this pillow. You can see the quilt here.

Malem bych zapomela na tyhle dva, ktere jsem sila uz davno na prani.

I almost forgot about these two pillows, I made for request. I had to use a combination of green, old-pink and brown colours.

Dekuji Vam za navstevu a preji krasny vikend! Hanka

Thank you for stopping by and have a great weekend! Hanka

Dareckova vymena / Gift exchange

V unoru jsem se prihlasila do me prvni akce, kterou poradala skvela Ajka "Vymena pro radost".
Mely jsme vyrobit darek jakoukoliv technikou, ale nevedely jsme pro koho tvorime!
Pani a jake to bylo dnes prekvapeni kdyz u nas zazvonil postak a predal mi balicek!
A co jsem dostala? Tenhle nadherny polstar! Z kazde strany je uplne jiny a je nadherne prosity!
Mockrat dekuji Marketo, udelala jsi mi obrovskou radost :)


In February I participated in my first "gift exchange" organized by awesome Ajka. We could use any technique to make a handmade gift. The challenging part was that we didn't know our swap partners until the gift was made!
Today my postman brought me a package and inside I found this beautiful pillow! Each side of the pillow is different and is beautifully quilted in the corners.

Tak uz i ja muzu prozradit co jsem usila pro svou partnerku. 
Po dlouhem premysleni co udelat jsem usila dve barevne chnapky a jahelnicek.

Finally I can tell you what I have made for my swap partner. After some thinking what to create I made two colorful potholders and pincushion.

 

Na zaver bych rada podekovala Ajce za jeji cas a zorganizovani akce "vymena pro radost". Ajko, bylo to fajn a tesim se na dalsi!

Great Granny Pillows / Polstare

Ach, zase ty polstare! Kdyz ja je tak rada siju :) Cerveny jsem usila pro maminku a tyrkysovy tatinkovi.  Je to blok znamy pod nazvem Great Granny. Stredni ctverecek symbolizuje dite, druha rada kolem nej (zluta) maminku, treti rada (cerno-bila) babicku a ctvrta rada (tyrkysova) symbolizuje skvelou babicku :) Vedeli jste to?

Mrknete TADY Lori udelala skvely navod jak na to. 

Pillows again! I know but I just love to make them. These ones I made for my mom and dad. This simple block is well known as a "Great Granny". Block consists of a centre square and 3 surrounding rows. Center square is "The baby", second round is "The mama" next round with 8 squares surrounding the mama is "The Granny" and the final round is "The Great Granny".  Did you know that? :)

If you want to play along visit Bee in my bonnet Lori made great tutorial and Great Granny Group on Flickr!

Leafy Pillows / Listeckove polstare

Sometimes I buy fabrics just because I love the color or print without any planed project ahead. 

I made these two pillows for my bedroom they match my linen and I love these light colors. The leaf is applique with small zigzag stitch.

Nedavno jsem si koupila par latecek jen tak, protoze se mi libily ani jsem nevedela na co je pouziju. 

Usila jsem z nich dva polstarky do loznice at mi to tam pekne ladi. Mam moc rada tyhle svetle barvy. List jsem naaplikovala drobnym zigzagem.

You can download free leaf template from Larissa Holland HERE there is also great tutorial.

Pillows/Polstarky

Vzdycky kdyz kupuji latky tak beru extra at mi zbyde. Rada siju se zbytku latek a rada se prehrabuji v te sve zbytkove krabici a prohlizim latky a vzpominam co jsem z nich usila. Krabice se mi nejak rychle naplnila a tak byl cas ji trochu odlehcit. Kdyz jsem tak brouzdala blogy narazila jsem na Cluck Cluck Sew a padl mi do oka tenhle nadherny polstar sity ze zbytku latek. Je tam i perfektni navod jak ho usit a tak jsem se hned plna nadseni pustila do prace a takhle to dopadlo :)

Every time I buy fabric I always take extra as I like to have leftovers for something. I love to go through my scrappy box and look at all these gorgeous prints and they remind me what I have made. My scrappy box got full and was screaming "use me please". So one day I came across Cluck Cluck Sew and this great tutorial and gorgeous appliqued fall pillow was perfect project to use my scraps. So here is my creation :)

Chevron pillow

 I have been busy making pillows lately. I was inspired by www.thejanellewindcollection.typepad.com  I love Chevron pattern it is very trendy easy and fun to make. Using half square triangles to form the zigzag pattern.

First I made just one but I just couldn't stop and made few more plus some different patterns.  I wanted them to be very colorful so fabrics are mish-mash.
