🇪🇸 ~ ¡Feliz NeedleworkMonday queridos artistas textiles de Hive! 🪡 💕

Este fin de semana estuve atendiendo un pedido de maxi-lazos, ¿la curiosidad?, todos estan hechos con tela reciclada de viejos uniformes de una amiga doctora ('• ω • `) ♡

Siempre es lindo darle una segunda oportunidad a las cosas en lugar de tirarlas a la basura, especialmente si se trata de tela de buena calidad.

🇺🇸 ~ Happy NeedleworkMonday dear textile artists of Hive! 🪡 💕

This weekend I was attending to an order of maxi bows, the curiosity? they are all made with recycled fabric from old uniforms of a doctor friend ('• ω • `) ♡

It's always nice to give things a second chance instead of throwing them away, especially if it's good quality fabric.

✦ The fabric used to make these uniforms is highly durable and retains its beautiful colors even with frequent laundering ✦

✦ From the top of one of the uniforms, I was able to extract enough material to make 3 accessories ✦

✦ To achieve this armed result, I resorted to the always reliable "apply iron at high temperature" ✦

✦ It took me a whole day to make all these loops. When you are working with recycled fabric, you have to think very carefully about which direction to cut the fabric in order to get the rectangles with the right dimensions ✦

✦ The truth is that it can take a long time to decide how you are going to cut the fabric, it is the most difficult part of the process, sewing them is another story, that takes a few minutes ✦

✦ They are very, very beautiful! I made them late at night and I was very tired; I didn't have time to do a proper photo shoot because the next morning my client had to take them to work for a person who was going on a trip ✦

✦ Later that day, a very nice neighbor, who always helps me with materials for my handicrafts, gave me a small batch of fabric scraps ✦

✦ To thank her for being so kind to me, I took some of the fabric she gave me and sewed this bow as a gift ✦

✦ I really had a very productive weekend but also a very relaxing one, I finished season 6 of "The Crown"! ✦

_{✦ Today I feel full of energy and it was a great Monday. Later tonight I want to start a tote bag project with soft and fuzzy blanket fabric! ✦}

Espero todos estén pasando un lindo mes de Octubre, yo estoy muy feliz cumpliendo muchos y diferentes proyectos de costura diferentes 🐑 🧶

Estos días estaré elaborando más totebags y unas pequeñas bolsas para cartas de tarot; tambien vi una propuesta muy interesante en Pinterest que quiero intentar, si puedes visita el link adjunto y dime lo que opinas, ¿sabes cómo se llama esa prenda tipo bolsillo individual? ┬┴┬┴┤ · ω ·) ノ

I hope everyone is having a nice month of October, I am very happy fulfilling many different sewing projects 🐑 🧶

These days I will be making more tote bags and some small tarot card bags; I also saw a very interesting suggestion on Pinterest that I want to try, if you can visit the attached link and tell me what you think, do you know what that single pocket type garment is called? | ω ·) ノ

Wow they are so pretty. You sewed them inside out and turned them? They are three layers right? From the last one which is the biggest to to the two bows on top. And there’s a clip at the back. I’m definitely making these soon.
I really like them. Great job Tesmoforia🥰

[tesmoforia]

That's right, honey! The principle of these bows is to make small rectangular pillowcases of different sizes and then flip them over, you got it! I'm currently using 8cm French clips, they work great for both people with very straight hair and people with a lot of wavy hair; it's always a pleasure to read you beautiful! Thank you so much! 🩷 🩷 🩷

Oh alright
You’re welcome ☺️

[medemausi]

I thought I'm the only that finds it hard to let go of leftovers of quality materials, but now have found a partner in crime, lol😁
The bow is so demure and giving the aura of cutesy. Nice work! @tesmoforia

[tesmoforia]

You understand me! Give me your hand friend hahaha OMG you SAID DEMURE, I think it's the best compliment I've received this month about my bows 💝 thank you so much! 💝

[medemausi]

They're so so pretty. I love their designs. This is something I really look forward to making for myself

I encourage you to try! Almost any size will work, and all the measurements I used for these bows were improvised, I'm so glad you liked my bows! 💘
