¡Hola! ¿que tal va todo?
Volvemos a escribir después de unos días de frenética actividad. Nos ha dado por la manufactura, nos hemos pasado horas jugando. Para que no haya quejas, os enseñamos las novedades:
1.- ILUSTRACIÓN:
Últimamente Miguel está en plan creativo, a tope, lo que se traduce en unos dibujitos la mar de majos. Quiere hacer un librito para niños con ilustraciones, una historia tierna. Pinta con acuarela y rotuladores. Y esto es lo que le ha salido por ahora:
Hello! How is it going?
We finally can come back to write another post. These last days have been full of frenzied activity. We have been dedicating ourselves to manufacture, and spent many many hours doing it :) . Since we've been away for so long we can show you some really nice new stuff.
1. - ILLUSTRATION:
Lately Miguel is being very creative. He is illustrating for a children's book- a very sweet story we will show you soon enough. He's been painting with water colors and markers. Above is some of the material he has come out with so far.

2.- BOLSO NUEVO:
Ayer cogí la máquina de nuevo porque había una tela que desde hacía tiempo quería utilizar. La compramos tiempo atrás en Barcelona, en una tienda de lo más molona llamada Nunoya (seguro que los que viven allí la conocen porque está en el Gòtic, en pleno centro guirístico).
Se trata de un patrón japonés con líneas geométricas formando estrellas en azul oscuro y blanco. El resultado final fue un bolso, que he subido a La Tienda para los más curiosos :)
Para contrastar los tonos, elegimos como forro una tela amarilla a puntitos. Es uno de mis bolsos favoritos ¡espero que os guste!.
2. - NEW BAG:
Yesterday I brought the sewing machine back home. There was a textile I wanted to use for a long time now. We bought it in Barcelona some time ago, in a shop called Nunoya (surely those who live there know it. It's in the Quarter, in the heart of the turists' land :) ).
It has a Japanese geometric pattern in which the lines form blue and white stars. I finally made a bag out of it, which is uploaded in The Shop... for the curious :)
I used a yellow lining textile inside to match the tones. This is one of my favorite bags so far...I hope you like it!

3.- COJÍN DE FLORES:
Ya que tenía la máquina delante y hacía sol en la habitación decidí aprovechar el momento y hacer un conjín de flores con una tela que ya conocéis (reciclada de una camiseta del mercadillo). Se que es repetirme... pero este motivo me parece precioso y me sobraba un poquito, ji, ji.
3. - FLOWER CUSHION:
I had the machine in front of me and it was a sunny day...so I decided to seize the moment and make a flowered pillow with a very nice textile. I think you may already know it -it's a recycled shirt from a flea market- I repeated the pattern, I know... but it is sooo beautiful ...and I still had a small piece of this textile around the house...
4.- BORDADO REGALO DE TATI:
Tenemos una amiga que le encanta experimentar con materiales y técnicas diferentes. No le asusta nada, cuando le interesa algo aprende y ya está. Hace un tiempo empezó con el bordado. Un día fui a su casa y me enseñó un par de diseños que había hecho. Como es tan majeta me regaló uno, pero con una condición: que lo hiciera cojín de semillas (de esos que metes en el microondas y se calienta), nada de colgarlo o enmarcarlo. La verdad es que me hubiera molado ponerlo en la pared con un bastidor... pero la artista decide. Como ya no hace frío no me veía rellenando el saquito de arroz o lino, pero por no traicionar la voluntad de Tati ha terminado siendo cojín.
Su creación podría titularse "Pin-up Barbacue" (es una mujerzuela de dudosa reputación aventando una barbacoa). ¡Se sale!
4. - EMBROIDERY GIFT OF TATI:
We have a friend who loves to try out anything with different types of materials and techniques. She is not afraid of doing stuff and if she is interested in learning something...she does it! Some time ago she started with embroidery. One day I went to her house and she showed me a couple of designs she was working on. She gave me one :) with one condition: that I stuffed it with seeds (the kind of pillows you put in the microwave and heat up). I was specifically forbidden to make something to hang or framed with her gift. The truth is that I would have loved to put it on the wall ... but the artist decides. I ended up doing a small pillow.
His creation might be entitled "Pin-up Barbacue".Great!

5.- ERIZOS MOLONES:
¡Ya tenemos listos los broches del Sr. Erizo! Al final han quedado muy divertidos.
Si queréis ver más fotos de nuestros nuevos animalicos también los podéis encontrar en La Tienda y aquí.
5. - THE GROOVY HEDGEHOGS:
We finally have the Mr. Hedgehog clips ready! In the end they turned out very funny.

6.- EL SEÑOR ZORRO CON PELAJE DE PRIMAVERA:
Por otro lado, para estrenar esta nueva estación también hemos ampliado la colección de broches del Sr. Zorro con colores nuevos: blanco, gris claro, gris oscuro y verde oliva. Quedan muy bien sobre ropas de colores sobrios.
Lo cierto es que nos ha sorprendido el resultado (ya sabéis, un zorro verde oliva, como que no lo ves claro...).
¡Estamos muy contentos con estos broches!
Y cómo no, al igual que el bolso y los erizos, también están en La Tienda.
6. - THE SPRINGTIME FURRED RUNNING FOX:
To kick off the season we expanded the collection of the running Fox with some new colors: white, light gray, dark gray and olive green. They match perfectly on top of sober clothes. The truth is that the result has surprised us (you know, an olive green fox...it's not exactly clear ...).
They are also at The Shop, if you want to take a peak.

¡Bueno pues esto es todo por ahora! ¿Que os parecen las cosicas? Nos hace mucha ilusión mostrarlas, además nos hemos divertido a tope haciéndolas.
Para despedirnos, un par de videos resultones.
¡¡¡Que tengáis un buen día!!!
Well, that's all for now! What do you think about the new stuff??? We are very happy to show them....and specially to create them!
To say goodbye, here are a couple of great videos.
