A Shadow Falls

It's no secret that I am dying to go on an African safari but until I get there, I'm going to continue to gaze longingly at Nick Brandt's stunningly beautiful black and white photographs that I saw today on Luxury Culture. They are on exhibit at A.galerie in Paris until 24 December 2009 and are also compiled into a book A Shadow Falls that is definitely going on my Christmas list. The photos are like the gorgeous photographic love child of Peter Beard and Richard Avedon. You feel like you are looking into the souls of the animals and one could also say that Nick Brandt has also captured the soul of Africa with his photography. They will leave you moved and touched and perhaps compelled to book the next plane to Africa.

White tones interiors

Going through my files of interior images, I am always attracted by the images I filed of more or less "white tones interiors". Looking at them I feel a sort of calmness coming over me.
Although there can be used sometimes a lot of colourful decorative items and furniture, the white background catches all these and neutralizes the environment.

Do you notice the same experience looking at those images here below?

Even hanging these colourful paintings, the room radiates calmness.

Quilt gran estrella

Recientemente  fue el cumpleaños de Pilar  y  le preparé este quilt,  en tonos otoñales,  que ayer mismo le entregué en mano y con el que se llevó una buena sorpresa  . 


El centro lo  ocupa una gran estrella , muy sencilla de realizar por bloques de 8"x 8".

Puedes encontrar más patrones gratuitos como  centro de un quilt  aquí.
.......O combinarlos como te guste  con las medidas indicadas o adaptándolas a tus necesidades.





Estaba un poco preocupada con el montaje  en el centro , pero finalmente las puntas han quedado estupendas  y me encanta   cómo el acolchado le da textura a esta parte central que atrae la mirada cuando lo miras.








Para hacer juego con la gran estrella central , en vez de darle una terminación típica con el biés , le he añadido unos picos que lo hacen algo más diferente.
Ya lo hice en otro quilt anterior y quería repetir la ocasión. Ahí tienes un enlace de cómo hacerlos.




Así es la trasera. Se aprecia la estrella central gracias a los bordes rectos que he cosido utilizando uno de los accesorios de la máquina nueva con el que las rectas salen perfectas.Así, la estella adquiere cierto relieve y se destaca por encima del acolchado....... Otra oportunidad de seguir probando cosa nuevas con ella.




En este quilt también tiene otra novedad para mí , y es  que he  realizado el acolchado con hilo matizado en unos tonos degradados en beige y marrón que quedaban preciosos con los colores de las telas. Lo compré en la feria de Paris y estoy tan encantanda  con el resultado que en cuanto pueda probaré de nuevo esta  versión de hilo que se vende en pequeños conitos.







Como recuerdo de quién lo hizo y a quién va dirigido , le cosí este corazón en una esquina.




Otro quilt dobladito , esta vez con una apariencia diferente.
