Woollen pouch 013

Well... I can't say I'm exactly satisfied 

with the way this one looks...
I am not fond of green. 
I just wanted to try these colours...
Anyway... what do you think???

Embossed roses

This is embroidery with ribbon. 

This is my very first effort to make embroidery. 

I've never made any kind of embroidery before. 

I found the tutorial picture in Pinterest and 

I had that lovely little pouch so I thought to give it a try. 

I know it could be done better, 

but still it's much better that what I thought it would be. 

Next time would be even better. 

So... what do you think???

night in our souls

Sea owl

I really like this yarn's colour.
And i really like owls.
So this creation combines two of my favorite things :-)
I made a couple of owls before, 

but i never made one like this.
It could have been done better. 

I'll be more careful next time.
So... what do you think???

Woollen pouch 012

I know, 

I do not often use these colours anymore. 

These are strong colours and 

they do not fit with everything. 

Yet, it's good to have at least 

a few accessories of these colours :-) 

What do you think??? 

"My philosophy is: 

It's not of my business 

what people say of me and think of me. 

I am what I am and I do what I do. 

I expect nothing and accept everything. 

And it makes life so much easier."

Golden Sunset

My cousin gave me this canvas a while ago. 

He said he wanted a painting :-)
I could have called this painting " Greek sunset", 

but i believe that blue and lilac tones 

would fit better for such a title. 

After all, my country is known for her infinite blue!
I tried to paint a boat in this painting. 

As you can see, i have no idea how to paint boats :-P

So... what do you think???

"Hope is the little voice 

you hear whisper 'maybe' 

when it seems the entire world 

is shouting 'no'."

Woollen pouch 011

If i had to name this woollen pouch, 

i would call it 'footprints in the sunlight'.
I really like this shiny, 

nearly fluorescent yellow. 
What do you think???

"Art is the only way 

to run away 

without leaving home."

Ianthine

I made a little search and i found that 'Ianthine' 

means 'frail flower'... 

I think it fits this little doll. 

What do you think???

"You're not going to please everyone. 

Stop agonizing over perfection and 

open yourself to creativity."

Woollen pouch 010

Pink and white!!!
This woollen pouch was a request by my cousin Irine 

(the Greek form of the name is Ειρήνη) . 

The pouch has her monogram as a decoration :-) 

What do you think???

This is a pouch made for an Iphone. 

It's much bigger than the others I've made so far.

Mia

Let me introduce you Mia.
Mia is a rabbit.
She is a plush or a doll, call it whatever.
She gives the sense of a pillow.
I really, really like her! 

What do you think???

Below there is Mia's pattern  :-)
Off course, Mia is a little different than
the rabbits in the photo :-P
