Accro au SODA

...mais au SODA stitch biensur :)
Isabella en a contaminé plus d'une avec ces petites broderies Nippones, mais il faut avouer qu'elles sont trop craquantes...
L'an dernier je me suis lancée et j'en ai fait 3 !
C'est plus que craquer, c'est devenue une vraie addiction...
Je sais, ce n'est qu'aujourd'hui que je les dévoile...mais mieux vaut tard que jamais =)
La première était I'll protect you


Ces deux compères en costume de dinosaure ont terminé sur une boite que Super Moitié a peinte à l'aérographe.
Quelques chutes de feutrine à l'intérieur et elle renferme  maintenant les boutons que j'appelle 'à thème'. (fleurs, papillons...)


La seconde c'est  A date with a wolf.
Trop craquante non ? =)
Les demi-points et le point arrière sur de la toile aïda c'est touffu mais je m'en suis finalement bien sortie.


Je crois même que c'est ma préférée pour le moment.
Celle là je la voulais dans mon coin couture, alors Super moitié m'en a fait une pendouille en feutrine...en forme de pomme...histoire de bien suivre avec la broderie. Il a ajouté un petit bouton en bois qu'il a peint lui même =)


La 3ème s'appelle A flying pony, et a été faite en cadeau de Noël pour petite Anna qui avait fait dans l'automne sa lettre à Santa Cross (j'adore toujours autant le jeu de mot Juju =D) en précisant qu'elle souhaitait un petit coussin pour mettre à sa porte ou à sa fenêtre de chambre...


...mais c'est un peu comme les sachets senteur qui finissent en sacoche de portable, le petit coussin de porte a terminé ce jour là en sac à main...je sais maintenant ce qu'il me reste à faire pour le prochain cadeau à cette adorable enfant =)
Quoiqu'il en soit, je sens qu'en 2014 il y aura d'autre SODA...
A bientôt pour la suite
xxxx


I'm now addicted to SODA..but SODA stitch of course =)
Isabella contaminated many of us with those adorable Japanese designs and I'm one of them...
But we must admit that they are really adorable, easy & quick to stitch...perfect then !
I made 3 last year (I know, I'm only showing them to you today, but better late than never...) so I think I'm really addicted =)
The first one was I'll protect you, 2 cute fellows in dino costumes who ended on a wooden box that Super Half painted for me. He added some felt losses in the compartments and I'm now storing my 'special buttons' in it (flowers, butterflies, charms...)


I'm absolutely in love with this box =)
The second one was A date with a wolf, I think that for the moment, it's my favourite !
As I wanted it in my craft room too, Super Half acted again and as you surely saw it above, made me a felt ornament that perfectly suits with the stitching ... an apple =D
He added a small wooden button he also painted.
Isn't it cute ?


And the third was A flying pony that I made for Baby Anna as her Christmas gift.
During Autumn she wrote her letter to Santa Cross (so funny) saying she wanted a little pillow to hang at her bedroom door or window...

 
But it seems that doorknob pillows are like scented bags which end in phone case ... as Anna hold it almost the whole day as a handbag !
I guess it means 'Auntie, you know what I want for my next gift' =D
Anyway, I'm sure now that there will be more SODA pieces this year...I already have an idea for the Summer seasonal shelf...
See you very soon here

      all SODA are so cute ! it's really hard to choose one !
      beware, once you start you can't stop =)
      but they are really quick & easy to stitch. Isabella kindly offered me some charts and I have bought some others on Ebay. I now have an online shop in France but they don't send overseas :-/
      I give you the link towards the catalogue anyway, just for for the eyes =D

  13. I had never heard of SODA either, until now! Thank you so much, Valerie, for the great ideas and I'm so happy that your little niece can love her little 'purse' and such a cute toy box. SODA is adorable and Im sure just from people seeing your wonderful stitching there will be much more sales of SODA.. LOL :) Are these designs ever in cross stitch mags?? Where do I buy?? :)
