<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">On Saturday we move. Finally. Last weeks were really exhausting - all this packing, cleaning, searching for new furniture, driving around, planning, and more packing and cleaning... and on top of this - work, home, cats and normal life. Sometimes I wish that day has more than 24 hours... </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But it slowly comes to an end. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Then will be just unpacking, cleaning, buying the rest which we didn't yet have time to buy and probably more cleaning and unpacking on top of everything. I look forward for the end of April... I hope till then life will be back to normal.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Although I almost forgot how a sewing machine looks like ;) (I didn't sew anything for at least 2 months), it's now time for two of my earlier projects to be published in:</span></div>

Moze wtedy udaloby mi sie zrobic wiecej. W sobote sie wreszcie przeprowadzamy. Mam juz powoli dosc tego calego sprzatania, pakowania, jezdzenia po sklepach w kazdej wolnej chwili bo tyle jest rzeczy do kupienia, znowu pakowania, bo pomimo, ze liczba wypelnionych kartonow rosnie, to ilosc rzeczy lezacych w szafach wcale nie chce zmalec, planowania wszystkiego, a dodatkowo normalne, codzienne obowiazki wcale nie chca poczekac az skonczymy z przeprowadza ;) </em></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>Po sobocie mam nadzieje bedzie juz z gorki i licze na to, ze do konca kwietnia nasze zycie wroci do jako takiego porzadku. </em></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Long time no see... Since my last project from before Christmas I didn't have any time for sewing. In January I started working almost full time (I have Fridays free), at the beginning of the year we were searching for a car for me (as I needed one to drive to work), we also planned to move out for quite a while from where we still live and started to search for a new appartment at the beginning of the year. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Car bought, appartment found and we are moving in in April (in addition, my MIL is also moving, so on top of everything what we planned, we are helping her). That's why there was no time (and no power...) for sewing for me. I know, I have Fridays free, but I use them to take care of the house a bit and weekends are spent on moving-related activities (there are more things to plan than before the wedding, LOL). </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">And no, I do not want to excuse myself ;) nor complain... just wanted to tell that it can be, that I will not write much untill we move and settle in new place (and that will be around end of April / beginning of May). </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I'm planning to pack my sewing room in the middle of March so if I want to sew anything, it has to be done by then. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">What is on the short to-do list before packing is one more PP pattern and a project for this year's Pantone Challenge (it's not really my colour, but I have to admit that I love <a href="http://www.pantone.de/pages/index.aspx?pg=21163&from=hp" target="_blank">THOSE</a> photos so much that I decided to sew something... they remind me of the scenes from Hannibal...)</span><br />

<span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Krotko i na temat... nie mam czasu. Zycie na razie prowadzi w wyscigu, zostawiajac szycie daleko w tyle. Duzo zmian od poczatku roku - duzo wiecej pracy, szukanie samochodu dla mnie (bo juz nie bylo mozliwe, zeby mnie TZ do pracy podwozil) i szukanie mieszkania (bo planowalismy przeprowadzke od jakiegos czasu). Samochod jest, mieszkanie tez juz znalezione (przeprowadzamy sie w kwietniu), teraz zostal czas na planowanie przeprowadzki (i do tego pomaganie w przeprowadzce tesciowej, bo tez zmienia mieszkanie). Co prawda piatki mam wolne od pracy, ale wtedy zajmuje sie kotami i mieszkaniem... wiecie jak to jest. W tygodniu po 12h dziennie mnie w domu nie ma, to kiedys trzeba odgruzowac ;) Niestety, czasu na szycie '0' (slownie: zero, nada, ani ciut ciut). Planuje spakowac pokoj szyciowy w polowie marca, wiec jesli cokolwiek ma powstac, to tylko do tego czasu (albo potem, ale to pewnie troche potrwa, zanim sie rozpakujemy i urzadzimy na nowym). </span></i></span><br />
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Nie, nie marudze ;) Tak tylko pisze, ze pewnie do maja niewiele sie u mnie na blogu pokaze. Z doskoku jestem czesciej na FB. </span></i></span><br />
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">A na krotkiej liscie przedprzeprowadzkowej jest wzor PP i maly projekt do tegorocznego Pantone Challenge. Kolorem roku 2015 wg Pantone jest marsala - taka troche ziemisty burgund, czy jak tam by to nazwal... Kolor niespecjalnie moj, ale jak popatrzylam na </span></i></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.pantone.de/pages/index.aspx?pg=21163&from=hp" target="_blank">TE</a> zdjecia (ktore z miejsca skojarzyly mi sie z Hannibalem :) ) to stwierdzilam, ze musze cos uszyc... projekt juz jest, teraz musze tylko wygospodarowac kilka godzin na szycie :)</span></i></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">2014 was a very busy year for me... work, wedding and planning incomming changes for 2015 (and some major changes in my personnal life are comming, oh my...). I didn't sew much, but I'm very happy that I finished one art quilt and started another, that I started designing PP patterns again after the wedding and I've prepared 4 projects for quilting magazines. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Quilting resolutions for 2015:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">- finishing second art quilt and submitting it to quilt show in Birmingham</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">- working on PP patterns</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">- preparing 2 or 3 projects for magazines</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">- starting working on a big quilt... I have the plan already, I just need to collect some low-volume fabrics for the background.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">- blogging more often and sewing more small projects </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Ostatni dzien w roku. Wiele z was pewnie szykuje sie gdzies na wyjscie, inne moze spedza ten czas przed telewizorem z kieliszkiem szampana i dobrym filmem... a moze przy maszynie? ;) My siedzimy w domu, bedziemy ogladac filmy i przytulac koty jak sie zaczna fajerwerki. </span></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">W 2014 nie szylam duzo. Plany byly wielkie, oj tak, ale kiedy one nie sa wielkie. Niestety, nie zawsze byl czas na szycie, a nawet jak czas sie znajdowal, to ochoty brakowalo. Duzo czasu pochlonelo organizowanie slubu i wesela, a potem musialo troche minac zanim znowu weszlam w rytm i zaczelam szyc. Ciesze sie, ze udalo mi sie skonczyc jeden art quilt i zaczac kolejny, ze zaczelam znowu po weselu projektowac wzory PP i ze przygotowalam 4 projekty do magazynow patchworkowych.</span></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Szyciowe plany na 2015? Na pewno szyc wiecej malych rzeczy i czesciej pisac na blogu, skonczyc art quilt i zglosic go na wystawe do Birmingham, przygotowac ze 2 czy 3 projekty do gazet i rozpoczac prace nad duza narzuta, ktorej pomysl w glowie mam juz od polowy 2014 (tylko musze troche materialow uzbierac):</span></i></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Last project to show in 2014 - fox bag which I've made about 2 months ago (I've submitted it to the contest, but without any luck). Matching mittens were made by amazing quilting friend of mine - <a href="http://cotopatchwork.blogspot.de/" target="_blank">Ania @ coto.patchwork</a> :) Thank you so much, you're the best and I'm so lucky to have you :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Many many hours spend on sewing those PP patterns and finally I'm done. In the last moment before driving to Poland to visit family for Christmas (the trip starts in the middle of the night today). For next two weeks I do not plan to even get close to the sewing machine (at least that's the plan and my back needs some rest). </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I used 3 blocks from <a href="http://jednoiglec.blogspot.de/2014/11/last-minute-christmas-sampler-qal.html" target="_blank">Last Minute Christmas Sampler </a>- christmas trees, deer (which I modified a bit) and the snowflake. The plan was to make a tablecloth in grey/blue/green, but I guess the batting which I used is tiny bit to thick... well, it can always be a bit thicker tablecloth or a kind of a Christmas tree skirt without a hole in the middle. Just to place the Christmas tree on it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Not sure yet, but I'm happy that I finished :)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Ostatni projekt do pokazania przed Swietami, skonczony na ostatnia chwile przed wyjazdem do Polski (wyjezdzamy dzisiaj w nocy).

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The biggest problem I had was to make photos. The weather outside is terrible - gray, cloudy, rainy and windy. Even in the middle of the day it's too dark at home to make any good photos, besides, as I do not prepare anything for Christmas in Germany, home looks as usual as always - no Christmas decorations here. I had to make photos outside, on the grass. I assure you, that the tablecloth/table runner is flat and round. I know it doesn't really look like on this photo:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I just finished first from two projects for <a href="http://jednoiglec.blogspot.de/2014/11/last-minute-christmas-sampler-qal.html">Julianna's Last Minute Christmas Sampler</a> - the Folk Snowflake. I don't know why, but from the first moment I saw this block on Julianna's blog I though about making a kind of a door wreath/hoop with it. I bought large embroidery hoop, quilted the block and here it is. I tried to add some decor to it on the top but nothing seemed to fit, so I guess this time simplicity wins:</span></div>

Myslalam zeby dodac jakas swiateczna dekoracje u gory ale nic mi nie pasowalo i w koncu zostawilam tamborek taki jaki jest:</span></i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">* I'm preparing a PP pattern for the next issue of <a href="http://www.fatquarterly.com/" target="_blank">Fat Quarterly</a>, which will be all about paper piecing. Thanks to <a href="http://lilysquilts.blogspot.de/" target="_blank">Lynne</a> and <a href="http://modalissa.blogspot.de/" target="_blank">Lissa Alexander from Moda Fabrics</a>, I got a pretty bundle of fabrics from <a href="http://www.fatquartershop.com/passport-yardage" target="_blank">Passport collection by 3 Sisters</a>. It hits the stores in January 2015. The fabrics are wonderful, in the style of 3 Sisters, which I like very much (especially the map of Paris):</span><br />

<b><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Sew Sweet QAL linky: </span></b><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Just to remind you, the linky for the Sew Sweet QAL contest is open and running (<a href="http://www.shape-moth.blogspot.de/2014/11/hot-chocolate-pp-block-5-in-sew-sweet.html" target="_blank">at the end of THIS post</a>). Until now, there is one project submitted, but I hope more will follow (in case of too few submissions I will have to reconsider the number of prizes). <a href="http://www.shape-moth.blogspot.de/2014/09/sew-sweet-qal-details.html" target="_blank">HERE are the rules</a> for the contest (remember, only finished projects with at least one Sew Sweet QAL PP block can be submitted).</span></div>

Mam nadzieje, ze zglosicie swoje prace do konkursu (na razie jest tylko jedna; niestety, w przypadku zbyt malej liczby zgloszonych prac, bede musiala zmienic liczbe nagrod). Zasady uczestnictwa w konkursie sa w <a href="http://www.shape-moth.blogspot.de/2014/09/sew-sweet-qal-details.html" target="_blank">TYM poscie</a> (dodalam polska wersje; najwazniejsza zasada to ta, ze projekty musza byc skonczone /nie same uszyte bloki PP/ i musza byc uszyte z co najmniej jednym blokiem z QALu).</span></i></span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">* First is an easier pattern (for confident beginners and beyond). A 10" x 17" PP block which I once used to make this 'Koi pond' wallhanging (and since then several people were asking me about the pattern so it's finally time to prepare one). </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">In adition to the pattern, you can use the free tutorial for the water lilies to make your own version of the wallhanging. You can find the tutorial <a href="http://www.shape-moth.blogspot.de/2012/01/fabric-water-lilies-tutorial.html">HERE</a>.</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Dzisiaj dwa wzory PP karpia koi. Pierwszy, latwiejszy, dla tych, ktorzy nie czuja sie ekspertami w szyciu PP. Blok ma wymiary 10" x 17" i niewiele czesci do zszycia razem. Moze niektorzy jeszcze pamietaja, jak kiedys uszylam makatke z karpiem koi i liliami. To wlasnie wzor do tego karpia, w tym samym rozmiarze. Jedyne, co trzeba dodac, zeby uszyc taka makatke, to lilie wodne z materialu, do ktorych tutorial jest <a href="http://www.shape-moth.blogspot.de/2012/01/fabric-water-lilies-tutorial.html">TUTAJ</a>.</span></i></span></span></div>

I also didn't manage yet to prepare the pattern for the writing 'Sew Sweet'. It will follow soon. I promise. </span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">*3 shades of the same color for icing (I used various pink fabrics) - bigger scraps or layer cake squares</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">*two shades of yellow for the cupcake liner - at least the size of a layer cake square (I used Grunge and some yellow from my stash)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">*fabric for the cupcake itself (charm square size) - I used chocolate brown</span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">A little tip for ironing PP blocks (it's how I always do it). When you're done with removing the paper, fold some layers of cotton batting and iron the block dry on top of it: </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">A tu mala podpowiedz odnosnie prasowania gotowego bloku PP. Gdy juz wyrwe wszystkie papierki z tyl<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">u</span>, przygotowuje sobie podklad do prasowania w postaci zlozonej kilkukrotnie bawelnianej ociepliny (to <span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">m</span>usi byc cos miekkiego, gladkiego i odpornego na temperature):</span></i></span> </span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIG34CvD1ypQ_ZVT6DEIURJoMsVbFHdnCMWWY1BrRqsWD_wbhA7Xp5uXncH4rN7tOSNtR3I7Vvke-rEmMA5-NjDNvhLLNmT6DW-EIYc0tr_0xpJXQUR1IIP6PQyf-5TGRuvuMMY_5M4_l5/s1600/cupcake+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIG34CvD1ypQ_ZVT6DEIURJoMsVbFHdnCMWWY1BrRqsWD_wbhA7Xp5uXncH4rN7tOSNtR3I7Vvke-rEmMA5-NjDNvhLLNmT6DW-EIYc0tr_0xpJXQUR1IIP6PQyf-5TGRuvuMMY_5M4_l5/s1600/cupcake+1.jpg" height="640" width="425" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">After the first round of dry ironing (when you pressed all the seam the way they should be), spray a generous amount of spray starch on the block and iron till dry (I use the cheapest spray starch available in the local supermarket; you can also make one on your own, there are plenty of tutorials online):</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Najpier prasuje blok na sucho, ukladajac przy tym szwy pod spodem w odpowiednich kierunkach, a potem dosc obficie spryskuje blok krochmalem w sprayu i znowu prasuje do sucha (uzywam takiego najtanszego z supermarketu):</span></i></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">As you can see, all the bulky seams which are difficult to iron when you do it on a hard surface press down into the soft batting, leaving you with perfectly smooth and crisp PP block:</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Szwy w PP czesto sa dosc grube i prasujac na twardej powierzchni zelazko slizga sie po nich, zostawiajac pomarszczony material pomiedzy nimi. Gdy prasujemy na czyms miekkim, szwy wciskaja sie w 'to cos' (w moim prz<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">y</span>p<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">ad</span>ku w ociepline), a my mamy idealnie wyprasowany, usztywniony krochmalem blok.</span></i></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Although I have still some WIPs to finish (the last pictorial quilt needs quilting and there is Sew Sweet QAL which starts on Wednesday) I've already planned </span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">new projects </span> for the end of this and I guess the whole next year (a series of 4 wall hangings and a pictorial quilt). </span><br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">As this post will be mostly about fabric, I need to give you some background for the story... For the flower girl quilt I used mostly <a href="http://northcott.net/?sid=2&layout=1col&content=fabric&fabid=17">Stonehenge fabrics from Northcott</a>, the next pictorial quilt will be also made using mostly Stonehenge and I thought I could get even more Stonehenge for the walhangings. Browsing through <a href="http://fatquartershop.com/">Fat Quarter Shop</a>, I just realised, that ther are so many similar Stonehenge shades, that it would be difficult for me to choose the exact ones looking just on the photos in the online shop. </span><br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Probably every one of you out there had a situation, when fabric which you've ordered looked a bit different than the one shown on the picture online (I had at least few times). It's difficult to get a perfect color correct photo, and in addition, the monitors are callibrated differently, so the only way to be 100% sure about the color of the fabric would be shopping in a stationary shop of having a color card. </span><br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">And there starts a story of a color card... I thought, that it would be pretty amazing to have a color card of Stonehenge fabrics, and as I didn't find anything online, I decided to contact Northcott directly. After few days of exchanging emails with Jennifer, the Marketing Manager of <a href="http://northcott.net/">Northcott</a> Canada, I got an info, that she packed me some Stonehenge fabrics, color cards and catalogues from the Northcott fabric lines to help me with my future projects (ther is no color card for Stonehenge, but I got a color correct catalogue, which I'm very grateful for :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">As I came back from work yesterday evening I found the package, which has just arrived from Northcott. Now you can just imagine, how suprised I was by the size and weight of the box!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><i>Zanosi sie na dlugi post, bo i historia dluga... </i></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><i>Jako, ze u mnie jest zawsze kilka projektow rozpoczetych w tym samym czasie (niektore nie sa nigdy konczone, niestety), tak i teraz mam juz plany na praktycznie caly nastepny rok choc ostatni quilt nadal wisi na scianie bez pikowania. </i></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><i>Czemu bedzie o materialach? Pare slow wstepu... Do szycia dziewczyny z kwiatami uzylam glownie materialow z kolekcji Stonehenge firmy Northcott. Ten quilt, ktory teraz wisi na scianie jest z mieszanych batikow, Stonehenge'ow i recznie farbowanego materialu, a nastepne, ktore planuje tez bede szyc uzywajac Stonehenge'ow. No straszliwie mi sie te materialy podobaja. Kolory, wzory, zlocenia (jesli sa), jakosc... No wiec przymierzalam sie do zamowienia kilku metrow na tlo do nastepnych quiltow i przegladajac Stonehenge w sklepie okazalo sie, ze wiele jest takich, ktore sa bardzo do siebie podobne i przez internet nie jestem w stanie ocenic, ktory by mi bardziej pasowal. Zaczelam wiec szukac karty kolorow, zeby ulatwic sobie zakupy w przyszlosci (wiadomo, jak sie zamawia przez neta w Stanach, czeka kilka tygodni na material, a potem sie okazuje, ze jednak kolor wcale nie jest taki, jak byl na zdjeciu i pewnie inny material by lepiej pasowal, to juz do smiechu nie jest... stracony czas i pieniadze... duzo czasu i duzo pieniedzy). </i></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><i>Poszukiwania karty kolorow Stonehenge nie przyniosly niestety rezultatu, wiec postanowilam zapytac bezposrednio producenta (zdarza sie, ze maja probniki na potrzeby patchworkowych wystaw, czy targow). Po kilku dniach wymiany maili ustalo na tym, ze Northcott przysle mi kilka katalogow i kart kolorow materialow i troche materialow Stonehenge (karty kolorow Stonehenge niestety nie ma, dostalam za to katalog ze zdjeciami materialow, ktore kolorystycznie odpowiadaja prawdziwym materialom). </i></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><br /></i></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Jakie bylo moje zdziewienie, gdy wczoraj po powrocie z pracy zobaczylam paczke od firmy <a href="http://northcott.net/">Northcott</a>. To znaczy sama paczka mnie nie zdziwila, tylko jej wielkosc i waga! No spodziewalam sie kilku katalogow i moze charm-packow z kolorami Stonehenge'ow. Otworzylam pudlo drzacymi rekami i widze papier... Mysle 'upakowali pewnie wszystko z kilogramami papieru, dlatego takie ciezkie...'. Oj, jak sie mylilam. Papieru byl tylko kawaleczek na wierzchu...</span></span></span></i></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I finished preparing the Tarantula PP pattern and as Halloween comes really soon, I decided to pair it with a Jack O'Lantern PP pattern which I've made last year but didn't have the chance to publish it (I was sewing the block and ran out of tangerine fabric; by the time I got one from Etsy seller (that was the only place it was still available; no chance to buy this particular in Germany), the Halloween was long gone). </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The Tarantula PP pattern is a very difficult block, I'd say for those who have their share of experience with paper piecing. There are many small part to sew together, but the effect is worth all the work put in it: </span></div>

Recently, <a href="http://www.aurifil.com/SiteAurifil/HOME.html" target="_blank">Aurifil</a> joined Shape Moth as one of the sponsors. I guess you know the brand from other blogs already and some of you have probably used it for your projects.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I started using Aurifil for quilting when I encountered some problems with breaking thread in my Janome. It was especially present while quilting pictorial quilts, with few layers of fabric, very often combined with a stabiliser and batting. I guess you can understand my frustration... few inches of quilting, frying thread which finaly breaks. Starting again, same story. On and on and on. And at the end you have a piec of some pretty nasty quilting which so or so have to be unpicked. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I tried every trick with the sewing machine, changed settings, needles and finally I've changed thread (I had some Aurifil spools which I got for a sewalong in the past). And that was it! All the frying and breaking stopped. The Aurifil thread was same thick as the other thread I was using. The quality was just way better (and no, I wasn't using a no-name brand). Since then I use Aurifil for quilting and that will probably not change :) </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="color: #a64d79;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><i>Do grona sponsorow dolaczyla firma <a href="http://www.aurifil.com/SiteAurifil/HOME.html" target="_blank">Aurifil</a>. Mysle, ze nazwa sie juz wam gdzies obila o uszy. Marka dosc czesto jest wspominana na zagranicznych blogach, bo i nici tej firmy sa duzo latwiej dostepne za granica niz w Europie (choc to powoli sie juz zmienia). Niestety, nici nie sa tanie ale jak to mowia jakosc kosztuje i w przypadku Aurifil to jest 100% prawda. Nie uzywam tylko i wylacznie nici Aurifil do szycia, bo sa po prostu za drogie ale do pikowania do tej pory nie znalazlam lepszych (sa jeszcze firmy, ktorych nici nie testowalam, wiem... jakby co to jestem otwarta na wspolprace ;) ). </i></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><i>Zaczelam ich uzywac kiedy zmienilam maszyne. Janomka jakos nie chciala wspolpracowac z nicmi, ktorymi do tej pory pikowalam i co chwila zrywala nitke (zwlaszcza przy pikowaniu duzych quiltow, gdzie bylo duzo warstw materialu, ocieplina, fizelina z klejem, etc). Probowalam zmiany ustawien, naprezenia nici, igiel roznych firm, a udalo sie zapanowac nad zrywaniem wlasnie zmieniajac nitke. Akurat mialam kilka szpulek nici Aurifil, ktore kiedys dostalam z okazji blogowego wydarzenia i tak lezaly i czekaly... </i></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #a64d79;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><i>Jak sie spojrzy pod swiatlo na nici roznych firm, to widac jakiej sa jakosci. Im bardziej posiepana, tym gorszej jakosci i latwiej sie bedzie zrywac podczas pikowania (tu pisze o nitkach poliestrowych czy bawelnianych, nie jakichs specjalnych).

Oczywiscie nadal bede uzywac innych nici do szycia czy PP (glownie ze wzgledu na cene), ale do pikowania wybiore juz tylko te z gornej polki. Szkoda mi pracy, czasu, siepania i zrywania nitki, wypruwania tego, co przepikowalam, suplenia i niszczenia quiltu.</i></span></span></div>

Tarantula PP block.<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I know, it's not usual to see such PP block... I've made it for my friend's birthday. She has spiders. And no, I'm no friend to them. The spiders, I mean. But still I decided to suprise her with a pillow made just for her. I used plain beige background so that the spider pops out more. For the orange details I used amazing orange-golen fabric from Arstisan Spirit collection which I got from <a href="http://www.robinspatchwork.eu/artisan,n.html" target="_blank">Robin's Patchwork</a>. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">BTW, I guess the block would look cool as part of some Halloween projects. In few days I will prepare the pattern if you would like to make yourself some big scary spider ;)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I'm really struggling to start sewing on a regular basis lately. Last
week was much better and I hope I will manage that pace as I have some
projects to share with you including some free PP patterns.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Today I wanted to show you the latest PP pattern: Gecko. I've made the draft at the very beginning of my PP journey, about 2 years ago and thought back then, that it would be to complicated for me to sew. Now, with a bit of experience with PP, I can see that it's not more complicated then my other patterns:</span></div>

Zawsze jest cos innego, cos wazniejszego do zrobienia w domu niz szycie, ale sie nie daje... musze po prostu znowu wpasc w rutyne. Ostatni tydzien byl dosc pracowity, uszylam kilka blokow PP - jeden na poduszke urodzinowa kolezanki, kilka skonczylam do projektu do magazynu i rzutem na tasme uszylam jeszcze gekona. Wstepny szkic przygotowalam chyba ze 2 lata temu, tylko ze wtedy wydawalo mi sie, ze blok jest zbyt skomplikowany, zebym go uszyla. Teraz widze, ze poziom trudnosci jest taki sam jak w przypadku innych blokow, ktore szyje, wiec jak to mowia, trening czyni mistrza ;) <b> </b></span></i></span></span></span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">As you know, my pictorial quilt 'She's a Wildflower' was accepted as a
part of 'In full bloom' exhibition during International Quilt
Festival in Houston. I've sent the quilt on 9th of August as priority
mail with tracking to be sure that it's coming on time (priority
shipping was never taking longer than 2 weeks from Germany, and DHL
states that the parcel should arrive no later than in 6-10 days), but
the package arrived to Houston yesterday... so last days, or better to
say last 2 weeks, I was contacting DHL and USPS asking about the parcel
and wondering if the quilt was still somewhere there or was it maybe
lost. Gladly, everythig ended good and now just keeping fingers crossed
for the quilt show. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I guess this is the last block in Pape-ARRR! Piecing adventures. I designed also some more but after a time I'm not convinced I like them so I will stop on shark </span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">(in case I will later come up with better versions of them I will include them in the series)</span>. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The winners of last week's giveaway are listed under the last post. The rules for
this giveaway are the same as previously (details below).</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Besided paper piecing I'm preparing my flower girl quilt for the trip to Houston (I have to send her this weekend as next week I'm flying to Poland for 2 weeks and then it would be too late for shipping) and considering to enter 2 or 3 quilts to the QuiltCon this year (I was thinking to enter 2 quilts which I already have and possibly sew one more - a new version of my older design). Do any of you plan to enter your quilts to QuiltCon this year?</span>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Ostatni blok PP z tej serii - rekin. W poczatkowej wersji byly jeszcze 2 bloki, ale po dluzszym czasie przestaly mi sie podobac i zdecydowalam, ze nie beda pasowac do reszty, wiec koncze na rekinie. Jesli mnie kiedys wena najdzie na nowe wersje tych blokow, to je dolacze do pozostalych. </span></i></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Lista osob, ktore wygraly wzor z delfinem jest w poprzednim poscie. </span></i></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Jesli jest ktos chetny na rekina, to zapraszam do wpisania sie w komentarzach. Zasady takie same jak zawsze :)</span></i></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Poza PP musze jutro przygotowac dziewczyne z kwiatami do podrozy do Houston. W nastepnym tygodniu lece na 2 tygodnie do Polski, a quilt musze wyslac przed wylotem, bo potem moze nie dojsc na czas. W sumie nie wiem, czy quilty na tej wystawie tematycznej ('In full bloom') beda oceniane przez sedziow, czy tylko beda sobie tam wisialy, bo jesli beda oceniane, to juz sie boje. Moje szycie jednak nie jest na tyle perfekcyjne na ile wystawy amerykanskie tego wymagaja (dlugosc sciegu, naprezenie nici, supelki po lewej stronie... etc). Zobaczymy...</span></i></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Mysle tez nad poslaniem kilku quiltow na wystawe patchworku nowoczesnego - QuilCon w USA. W sumie bardziej dla zabawy niz w jakims konkretnym celu, ale musialabym sie zastanowic co tam zglosic. Pomysle po powrocie z Polski (po przekalkulowaniu wszystkich 'za' i 'przeciw' bo opinie o wystawie w tamyt roku byly, ze tak to delikatnie ujme, dosc srednie).</span></i></span></span></div>

Seria o piratach prawie juz pajeczynami zarosla, ale wlasnie zrobilam generalne porzadki i wypedzilam pajaki z szafy ;) Zostaly 2 bloki do konca.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Well, here I am. After a long break I'm back and will start to sort things out (and write a long to-do list, but this time it will not focus on the planning of a wedding but on sewing).</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Some of you already know. I got married to the most amazing and the hottest ;) guy I know (I know you read my blog, my Dear, *kisses*). We spent last 10 days in Greece and now are back in a real life.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Our wedding photos were done by <a href="http://aleahorst.de/" target="_blank">Alea Horst</a>. </span></div>

<span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Juz wrocilam i zostane. Zbyt dlugo mnie nie bylo w 'szyciowym' swiatku. Jeszcze troche i zapomne jak sie uzywa maszyny ;) </span></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Dla tych, co nie wiedza to niedawno wyszlam za maz za cudownego faceta, z ktorym spedzilam ostatnich kilka lat mojego zycia. Jak ten czas szybko mija... tyle miesiecy planowania i przygotowan, rach ciach i po wszystkim. </span></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><i><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Quiltu, ktory planowalam zglosic do Francji w koncu nie udalo mi sie przepikowac. Nie mialam ani czasu ani sily na szycie po weselu. Niedlugo po imprezie wylecielismy na wakacje, a zgloszenia byly tylko do 26go czerwca, wiec sie nie udalo. Nic to, moze zglosze go na jakas inna wystawe. </span></i></span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I didn't manage to quilt my pictorial quilt which I planned to submit to a quilt show in France before flying to Greece (the deadline was on 26th of June). Unfortunately there were too many things to do and too little time those last days before holidays and I was simply too tired to sew. Well, I will keep the quilt for some next show. </span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">What I also wanted to show you is the suprise wedding gift (or better to say a whole bunch of gifts) which I got from sewing friends from Polish sewing forum: two bundles of beautiful batiks packed in an awesome bag and so many quilted postcards. That was the best gift ever! Thank you Ladies, you rock!</span></div>
