Nashville Needlework market sera en febrero 25 y 26, desafortunadamente no podre ir, pero estor lanzando tres piezas al mercado en esta ocasion

My three samplers celebrate love, not only love to your couple or to your children, Love in general, the most wonderful feeling in the world!
Mis tres Sampler celebran Amor, no solo el amor a tu pareja o a tus hijos, Amor en general, el sentimiento mas maravilloso del mundo!

This is the first one “Our first 20 years” and as you can imagine I dedicated to my hubby on our 20th anniversary.
Este el el primer Sampler “Our first 20 Years” Nuestros primeros 20 anyos, y como se pueden imaginar se lo dedico a mi costillo en nuestro 20 aniversario.

233 x 233 Stitches
Model stitched on 32 ct Belfast Smokey White with DMC and Valdani Threads

I love my hubby even more today than when we got married 20 years ago, he is my better half, I just can not conceived my life without him. This is a picture of us a couple of weeks ago
Yo amo a mi costillo aun mas que cuando nos casamos 20 anyos atras, el es mi mejor mitad, sinceramente no concibo la vida sin el. esta es una foto de nosotros tomada un par de semanas atras.

In addition to the house I put in this sampler a lot of symbols that represent good things that we are grateful for in these first 20 years together
Ademas de la casa coloque en el sampler simbolos que representan las cosas por las que estamos agradecidos en estos primeros 20 anyos juntos.

Pomegranates surrounding the sampler since they represent fertility and abundance, Dove wishing a peaceful life, Duck because to have a long marriage you need to be a resourceful  person, flowers in general because the represent hope and Joy. Deers that represent unconditional love.
Granadas rodeando el marco del sampler dado que representan fertilidad y abundancia, Palomas que son deseos de una vida pacifica, Patos porque para estar casado por tanto tiempo necesitas ser una persona ingeniosa, flores en general porque representan amor y alegria. Venados que representan amor incondicional.

The sampler also includes one of my favorites phrases from a poem of Elizabeth Barret Browning and that will be used at the renewal of our vows.
El sampler incluye una de mis frases favoritas de un poema de Elizabeth Barret Browning y que la estare usando en nuestra renovacion de votos matrimoniales.

My second Sampler is dedicated to my family, I named “Spanish Tiles”
El segundo sampler se lo dedico a mi familia y se llama “Azulejos Españoles”

165 x 212 stitches
Model Stitched on 28 ct White Cashel with DMC Threads

Bands inspired on different Spaniard embroidery  styles are combined on this sampler, I transformed them into cross stitch  and colored with a Spanish flare.
Bandas inspiradas en distintos tipos de bordado español son combinadas en este sampler, transforme los motivos en punto de cruz y los coloree con un toque español.

The third sampler is dedicated to Love. It’s black like the Indian ink because love is indelible, with touches of red like the passion that love must have, enough to be noticed but not that much that blind the rest of your feelings. The word LOVE in Gold because is the must precious emotion in the world!
El tercer sampler esta dedicado al amor. Es negro com la tinta china porque el amor es indeleble, con toques de rojo como la pasion que el amor debe tener, suficiente para que de note, pero no tanto que ciegue tus otros sentimientos. La palabra AMOR en color oro porque es la emocion mas preciada del mundo!

268 x 225 Stitches

Because this is a huge project, and I want to have it done in a reasonable time, I spoke with my friend Yaydik and we decided to stitch it as a SAL. I started last year but we committed ourselves to starting this month and to stitch one block per week. That way, it will be finished by the end of the year.

Desde que vi por primera vez Gran Marquoir de Isabelle Vautier, supe que me encantaria tenerlo bordado en mi cuartito de bordado. Dado que es una pieza de tamano considerable y quisiera tenerlo listo en un tiempo rasonable hable con mi amiga Yaydik y decidimos bordarlo como SAL. Ya habia empezado el anyo anterior pero nos comprometimos a bordar un bloque por semana, de esta manera lo tendremos listo antes que finalice el 2012

The original chart was intended to be stitched almost as a monochromatic on red with a few shades on ecru. We are giving it our personal touch, Yaydik is stitching it in Lilac and green tones over Fairy Dust Lugana.
El esquema original fue disenado con la idea de ser bordado en rojo con algunos pocos toques en ecru. Nosotras estamos dandole nuestro toque personal. Yaydik lo esta bordando en tonos lilas y verdes sobre Lugana  “fairy Dust”

Mine is a multicolor version with my favorite palette of DMC flosses over Antique White Jobelan.

Mi version es multicolor con mi paleta favorita de colores en DMC en Jobelan Blanco Antiguo.

See you next Friday with a new update!

Nos vemos el viernes con un nuevo avance!

Todas las luna llena mostraremos un envase con los hilos que nos han ido sobrando de las labores. Al final del anyo rellenaremos un biscornu disenado especialemente para la ocasion.

Como veran mi frasco esta completamente vacio, este ultimo mes no he bordado absolutamente nada ( verguenza…) entre las fiestas, viajes para visitar a familiares del costillo  y la celebracion de mi aniversario de bodas numero 20 (del que hablare en un post aparte) el bordado se vio resentido.

Ya he puesto manos a la obra y retornado mis labores el dia de hoy, ayuda que uno de mis grupos de bordado se reune en Crafty Ewe esta noche y seguro entre galletas, cafe y risas algunas puntadas extras dare, ya veremos la proxima luna como me fue!!!

The holidays are here, it’s time to share presents and gifts but even better it’s time to be with family and friends.

El fin de semana pasado una de las fiestas de navidad del trabajo del costillo fue en Boston, asi que me “sacrifique” y vole para ir con el

The party was on Friday, so Saturday morning we went to Salem.

La fiesta fue el viernes, el sabado en la manana fuimos a Salem.

Like the tourist that we were, we walked following the red line that is on the street and surrounds all the historic points  that were in the map.

Como turistas que eramos caminamos siguiendo la linea roja que esta en la calle y que marca los sitios historicos en el mapa

that also includes a needlework store…

aunque tambien incluia una tienda de bordado…

after lunch we drove South and went to Plymouth

Despues de la comida manejamos hacia el sur y llegamos a Plymouth

It’s such a feeling see this big little rock.

Que sensacion tan grande se siente cuando se ve esta pequena gran roca

Sunday  morning we walked through the beach that was in front of the hotel that we stayed at in Nantasket Beach

El domingo en la manana caminamos por la playa que estaba en frente del hotel donde nos quedamos en Nantasket

and drove back to the airport but not without stopping at the Museum of Fine Arts of Boston, where they have an exhibition of Embroideries of Colonial Boston.

Y manejamos ya regreso al aeropuerto, no sin antes parar en el museo de finas artes de Boston donde tienen una exhibicion de Bordado del Boston Colonial

it is a small exhibition but the pieces were so beautiful! before I left the Museum i stopped at the gift shop and found this book!!
Es una muestra pequena, pero las piezas eran tan bonitas!! antes de dejar el museo pare en la tienda del mismo y mira lo que consegui

I came back home completely energized and full of new ideas for more designs! See you soon with news about the forum
Regrese a casa completamente energizada y llena de nuevas ideas para mas disenos!!
Nos vemos pronto con noticias acerca del foro!
