This is one of the things I have been busy with this past weekend, with my mum's help (I am not very good with the sewing machine yet). My mum, tired of seeing when she ever came to my house, the cutting mat and the 60 cm patchwork rulers on the table, told me to look for some big spare fabrics and we started with it. I think it turned out great though the colour combination is not too fancy, but it very useful to carry them around and also to have them kept in a tidy way. We made it just with the measurements of the cutting mat, that you cannot see because it is inside, so that it cannot move too much inside, and with the spare fabrics we made a pocket in each side for each of the rulers (cm and inches). How do you like it?

Bolsa para la base y las reglas de patchwork...

Intercambio A la Carta...
And I just realised by uploading the picture of Najma¡s exchange that I never uploaded the one of what I sent to Verónica in Peru in the swap organised by Emilia! What a memory that of mine, though with the month I just had...
Pues aqui lo teneis, le hice un bolsito de patchwork (el primero que hago buf!) y le envie tambien alguna cosilla más: una revista de punto, unas cintas y unos botones... Me hubiera gustado enviarle mas cosillas pero la verdad no tuve mucho tiempo este mes... asi tengo todo atrasadisimo... ¿Que os parece el bolso?
So here it is, I made a patchwork tote (my first one, buf!), and I also sent some more things: a knitting magazine, some ribbons and buttons... I would have liked to send something more but to be honest I had not much time this month... that is how I have all so delayed... But what do you think of the bag?

De Lily...
And the other package, not such a surprise because I knew what was inside, but I was so eager to see them in real and touch them with my own hands that I felt like a little girl with new shoes while opening it. How beautiful!!
Son los dos preciosos bolsos que le encargue a Lily, del blog Entrelazos, de tela y amistad, que hace unas cosas maravillosas! Uno (el azul) es para mi, hecho a medida para que me quepa una carpeta en el para ir a trabajar, y el otro, para mi madre, en sus colores preferidos. Tambien me ha enviado un broche a juego con el bolso, un detalle de cariño, muchas gracias Lily!

¡Mi primer SAL!
I am really busy with my job and other stuff but I just could not help it and I have enlisted my first SAL!!! Organised by Isabel in her blog TILDAPATCH, it is a beautiful country bag and it will be a challenge to do it.
Mientras tanto sigo preparando los intercambios que tengo pendientes (el de Najma y el de Emilia), y hoy he terminado mi primer bloque del Dear Jane!!! Le sacaré mañana por la tarde una foto con luz diurna y lo subiré al blog de Mi Baby Jane.
In the mean time I am preparing the swaps I have pending (Najma's and Emilia's), and today I have finished my first Dear Jane block!!! I will take a picture of it tomorrow afternoon at daylight and will upload it to My Baby Jane blog.
