Working / Zapracowana

So I've added some more quilting and it is much better now (at least in my opinion). Below is how it looked before:
No więc podpikowałam troszkę bardziej i (moim zdaniem) jest lepiej. Poniżej poprzednia wersja:
And here some close-ups of the new one.
A tu zbliżenia tej nowej.
Now I can start finishing touches with hand embroidery :)
I teraz mogę spokojnie sobie troszkę podhaftować :)

I don't post very often lately because I'm busy with other, non kitchen/food related projects. But I can show them to you to keep you updated. So here are "Sweet memories" - a small piece (23x23 cm) which took a few months to be done. I started it in January and planned to enter it to the show but somehow my plans has changed.
Ostatnio rzadko piszę, ponieważ jestem zajęta innymi, nie związanymi tematycznie z kuchnią/jedzeniem, pracami. Ale oczywiście mogę Wam je pokazywać, żebyście byli na bieżąco. No więc to są "Słodkie wspomnienia" - mała (23x23 cm) praca, której powstanie zajęło mi kilka miesięcy. Zaczęłam w styczniu, planowałam zgłosić to na wystawę, ale plany zmieniłam.
What is this piece about? Mostly about... the frame that we put in our mind to the sweet memories. Usually we remember just a feelling of something nice, with no attention to the details, and as time goes by we keep adding to this frame to preserve this moment for ever.
O czym jest ta praca? Głównie o... oprawie, w jaką nasze umysły wkładają miłe wspomnienia. Zazwyczaj pamiętamy tylko jakieś miłe odczucie, szczegóły nam umykają, a w miarę upływu czasu nasza pamięć "oprawia" to wspomnienie niczym drogocenny klejnot, aby zachować je na zawsze.
I finished also another piece - "Black Trees" (9 months!) but you have to go to my album to see it, it's too dark for this kitchen :)
Skończyłam jeszcze jedna pracę - "Czarne Drzewa" (9 miesięcy!), ale ją musicie zobaczyć sobie w moim albumie, zbyt mroczna do tej kuchni :)

The hen in troubles

Image
Sometimes things are simply overwhelming... I can only guess that keeping balance for this little hen is quite a challenge. But she keeps her face straight. The amount of dishes is truly impressive. To dive or not to dive? Maybe just looking will do the job? But the water seems so joyful and friendly... So maybe, just maybe, all the troubles will turn out to be manageable? Courage, little hen!

Old Garden collection / Ogrodowa kolekcja

Image
Do you remember my mysterious "Old Garden" ? Now I call it finished! Next time when I start something like this, please remind me that it is not the fastest kind of work :) Pamiętacie mój tajemniczy "Stary Ogród" ? Uważam go za skończony! A następnym razem, jak się wezmę za coś takiego, przypomnijcie mi proszę, że to nie jest ekspresowa robótka :) But I have to confess - I love it! And I'm really glad that I made it. Ale przyznaję - uwielbiam go! I bardzo się cieszę, że zrobiłam coś takiego. I'm going to frame it professionally and put on a honorable place on the wall. With the pieces like this it is impossible to sell it - there's no money I would prefer to keep instead of this magical garden. It's not just the matter of the amount of time spent on this. It is more about my thoughts, some ideas and their execution, it is so much "me". Mam zamiar dać go do oprawy, a potem powiesić na honorowym miejscu. Takie rzeczy nie nada...

Spring is coming to the kitchen

Image
With the sun going higher and the days getting longer gotta look for the signs of spring in the kitchen. Little birds say that "Spring is coming to the kitchen" is my newest kitchen portrait in stitches. It is 46 x 57 cm big and contains all kinds of spring surprises. Fresh milk and eggs with the promise of new life accompanied by colorful morning chorus. Clean plates are blooming and fresh water brings much needed vital energy. First greens appear everywhere slowly taking the kitchen space of. Even the old wooden floor can't resist as if trying to connect with sweet blooming memories... So good to see you back, dear Spring! Make yourself at home and stay as long as you wish.
