About Me

My photo
My blog's main subjects are sewing, the thing in which I am experienced the most, and beadwork, which is, in fact, pushed me into blogging. I am also engaged in knitting and crocheting. All together they are the set of skills which I use to make my wardrobe my whole life. These are not my only interests, I also like the English language (that's one of the reasons that my blog is bilingual), try to travel around my country and abroad (when can afford it), am interested in art (to the degree of a dilettante but nevertheless) and adore the people who can create anything beautiful or useful whatever it is :-) So welcome to a needlecrafter diary!

Iris Brooch

 




The last brooch made as a present this year is this Iris Brooch. It is very decorative and ornate, and seems to belong to a baroque style:-) A burst of colour among winter that cannot but attract attention. I liked it because of plenty of both light and dark as well as matte and shining lilac hues, and variety of the used materials including 15.0 seed beads, twin, and pip beads. The rhinestone chain adds it delicacy. My friend chose it herself and it is clear she wasn't mistaken :-). The  brooch is very beautiful indeed!



Брошка "Ірис"



Остання брошка створена в подарунок цього року - цей "Ірис". Вона дуже декоративна і нарядна, здається належить до стилю бароко:-) Вибух кольору серед зими який не може не привернути увагу. Мені вона сподобалася через велику кількість світлих і темних, матових і сяючих бузкових відтінків, а ще розмаїттям використаних матеріалів включно з бісером №15, твінами та "pip" намистинами. Ланцюжок зі стразами додає виробу витонченості. Моя подруга сама її обрала і, як бачимо, не помилилася:-) Брошка справді дуже гарна!

The main trouble here was a lot of work with French wires and the piece of it made me think it would be not enough for all those petals' curves so it was stretched more than I had done it before. The outcome is worth of  those efforts:-)





Головною проблемою тут було багато роботи з канителлю її відрізок якось примушував думати, що її буде не достатньо для вигинів усіх цих пелюсток тож довелося розтягувати її більше ніж робила це раніше. Результат вартий тих зусиль:-)
