new bag finished

the bag from yesterday's post, i finished it today, and made a bit better photos.. :) here it is!

the exterior (i know that the stitches on the handles are crooked but i used the backstitching.. now i know it was a bad idea :) the circles are from an old bag my boy's mom gave me to destroy;d (in my oppinion - recycle;p) they are very usefull as you can see :)now, the linning! two pockets and a keyring. pockets are perfectly measured for my iPod and my phone;d and the keyring is for.. hmm keys or my lucky teddybear;d i love this material's pattern!
and here the decorative stitch.. let's say it was an experiment! but i like it :)

i like it a lot! i'm not sure if it is resistant (wytrzymały) cuz i sewed is quite quick (quick for my abilities)

isntead the pale blue fabric i'd take (if i had..) a intensive blue, green, purple fabric.. something with an intensive colour!! oh and now, when i'll earn some money i will buy eco leather! and i'll try to make a bag similar to the one i have for about 2 years and i use it all the time!

and here's a photo of little sunflowers we bought today for tomorrow. it's the day when we receive our certificates etc. the official day when we end his school!

why sunflowers? i think that people who read this blog longer than a week know :) (except the point i love those flowers) :)

now i have to get dressed and woke up my body cuz my boys is visiting me today :)

have a nice day!

new bag

a quite big bag for.. ME! i love it! but there is one thing i would like to change in it, but i can't: instead the pale blue fabric i'd use a intensive green or blue. and it's a bit careless.. cuz i wanted to do it very quick! and it wasn't a goo idea;p next time i'll do it slowly and i'll be more careful;d it has two perfect sizes pockets for my phone and my iPod, and a hanging something for keys or a teddybear ;d can't wait tomorrow when i'll definately finish it! i can't do it now cuz it's too late to use my sewing machine and.. i'm a bit tired also :) hope you like it!

pillow for my mom :)

my parents are going for a trip next Monday/Tuesday to Italy.. and my mom said that she needs a small pillow, cus they will spend a lot of time in the coach, and she doesn't like when her head is hitting at the window;p so i sewed one today:) i finished a moment ago, and she likes it! :) it's about 30x30cm, i don't have much fabrics, i used ones i have a lot. my first patchwork something! :)and here are some stamps i borrowed today from Ann, i like them aaaa loooot already!

and now? relax? computer games or something like that;d

tote for Ann

i finished a simple tote for Ann today. first time without any books or something like that. two pockets inside. Ann picked the materials and i did everything like she wanted. it looks better in reality :)

now i have to think about a bag for myself!

p.s. i hate my neighbour from the first floor (15/37) please kill him.

i visited a second-hand near my home on Monday, and i saw a great kinda heavy-weight fabric, perfect for a lining.. but it was too expansive for me (i borrowed so much money from my parents and my boy, and now i'm seriously broke and i need money to give them back.. i can't spend on anything). today.. i went to this second-hand again, i was crossing by.. i came in and the material was there all the time! and it's Friday today, so the shop has super low prices.. and i bought it for like 2.90zl haha;d and i got this extra big thread for free! cuz the lady who was selling knew i liked it, so she said that i can take it cuz it just takes place in the shop! haha now that was a good treasure hunt!

and now the sad part of the day: i just finished watching the final episodes of Grey's Anatomy sixth season.. the last two episodes ever.. and omg i cried for almost 2hours!! i was terrified cuz i thought that Derek will die.. and and everyone will die.. and eventually the main people, people that this serial wouldn't be so superextra great were saved and are alive! haha omg i hate myself because of my big love to Grey's Anatomy.. it's the most inteligent, funny, terryfiing.. etc. serial in the whole wide world! i'm so happy that there was (almost) a happy ending.. if it wouldn't be.. i'll probably couldn't sleep at night! haha;d ahh so happy right now. and omg i want to move out somewhere with my boy.. i think i have to play Lotto games or something.. it's the only way..

my godfather from Poznań arrived.. i'm happy cuz i like him very much but i can't sew! cuz i'm ashame! and i want to sew an apron for my mom or a new bag for myself! can't wait! ;d

hope you have a good day :)

after oral exams

i am sooooooooooooooooooo happy and excited! i'm after all my final exams! and i have soooo good results from all oral exams!! omg you can't imagine how happy i am! today's exam was great! the examinators (two super nice and cheerful ladies!) were great! and i'm soooo happy i was talking in english after a very long break! after i got out of the oral exam, and i was waiting for the result i was smilling all the time because of the super nice and funny conversation we had! ahh i'm soooo happy! now i'm just waiting for 4 results from written examinations. i hope i'll pass everything and that i'll have a good result from the written advanced english examination! omg i'm actually so excited! and my summer holidays started today after leaving the school! level of my excitation is soooo big! i don't know what can i do right now! haha!

thank you all! ;d

after the first oral english exam

i passed the exam quite good, i'm afraid of tomorrow's exam cuz it's an advanced level.. and i really don't remember a lot of stuff!! seriously.. i'm really terrified..

after i got back from school i started translating lotta's book, the chapter with the oven mitt tutorial.. and after i finished that.. i started to do it :) few hours with one break and i have done it! it's a gift for mother's day for my mom, i gave it today cuz she saw me doing it.. just a few days before mothers day :) i realised her's little dream.. she always wanted a oven mitt :) it was a weird experience working with wool batting and doing the spiral! hope you like it :) oh and it's very comfortable!

and what now? i think i'll go to bed cuz i'm seriously really tired..

and keep your fingers crossed tomorrow! and wish me luck! it always helps :)

:)

keep your fingers crossed tomorrow, we have an english oral exam :)

leather phone covers

today after little shopping (but not for me..) with my friend i started sewing :) my dad wanted a leather cover for his phone.. so i sewed it :) from some pieces my mom found somewhere in the closet.. i sewed two, because.. the first one is too small!! all the time i have no idea how i made it too small!! ;o now i have a break and i'm wondering what could i sew next.. hmm maybe another bag from lotta's book? it's the last bag tutorial in this book.. but i don't think i'll manage to sew it today, and i don't want to have anything to finish tomorrow, cuz after i'll be back from my boy i have to learn for my english oral exam :) and after 20th May.. THE LONGEST SUMMER HOLIDAYS IN MY SCHOOL YEARS!! ;O 4 MONTHS!! ;O

oh and i'm so sorry for people who live on the country side etc. and have problems with the rain.. floods.. here fortunately are just a lot of puddles..

continuation

continuation of the last post. omg i am soooo tired. i'm sewing about 13/14h with short breaks. and heres what i made after that simple tote bag.. (photos are awful cuz i was too tired after finishing it to make some nice photos;p next time;p)

i'm suprised that i i sewed it that good. like you know, i'm just starting to sew! and it's my first bag with a lining! all day tote - all day sewing ;o

the exterior is from black linen, the lining is from fine cotton.. i love the pattern! everything is good.. except one thing.. this bag, because of the fine fabricks.. is too flabby. most of my bags are flabby, but they're shape is different - vertical, and this one is level (?). when you hold it in your hands everything is ok, but when you put it on a table or something it falls and you can se almost everything inside;p

on the last photo you can see a stiffen plastik board. i sewed a cover for it, cuz it goes to the interior of the tote, and it isnt so flabby!! my mom gave me the idea to find something to stiffen the bottom of the bag.. and here it is! ;d

the bag's interior is a little bit different than in Lotta's book, i made two pockets, and one is with a flap on a velcro. maybe i'll take it today with me, but i'm not shure cuz it's raining all the time!!

hope you like it.. please give me your oppinions;p

a little accent of happines :)

ahh i love those flowers, the fragrance is beautiful.. oh and at last i made my handwriting signature on the computer :) yay!

hmm? a photo of me. i did it today. the reason why i took it is probably the fact that tomorrow i have an oral exam of polish and i even don't have a composition for it written. but as always, i'll problaby finish it today about 10p.m and i will panic tomorrow that i won't pass. i know it, and i'm still doing everything except it!! agrr! hate myself for doing every important school things in the last moment!!
and i have a stomach ache.. :(

anyway, please wish me luck and keep your fingers crossed tomorrow, it always helps :)

a walk

yesterday we went for a walk.. to Rabsztyn. we didn't go inside the ruins of the castle, cuz there was really nothin to see. we were walking around the castle, walking in a beautiful.. thick.. forest :) and doing photos. after that, we went to A.'s flat and what..? We were playing a game named Killzone on Playstation2, omg you can't believie it but it was my first time on a consol like this. and omg omg omg omg i'm sooo in love!! i love playing in shutter computer games, but omg it's so much fun when you play with someone on a multiplayer splitscreen.. and especially fun with my A. ;* (except the fact he was winning all the time!! ha!!;p). Well now you can suspect.. that Playstation3 is my new dream!! ahh;d maybe some of you have one at home, and doesn't want it;p haha, yeah.. SURE!!

oh and P.S. -> can't wait the moment when i'll finish my final exams!! i'll be learning how to sew, sleep a lot and doing everything i love to do and i can't do it now - because if i'll try.. i'll probably won't stop!! what were you doing this weekend?? hope you had a great time!! :):)

oh and i wish Ann health! cuz she isn't in a very good shape lately. well Ann.. it's just our luck;p

some photos from today's photosession with Corinna. it was the first session like this for me.. i hope some of you like it :) and i hope that the photographed person likes it.. we were in Grodziec, walking around the old cement works..

i'm sooo tired.. after the little photosession.. and after yesterdays party.. we were soooo drunk! and after today's hangover.. i don't think i'll ever drink again!

rest.. lots and lots of rest.. bye :)

pogoria lake

whe had a little trip to Pogoria Lake in my town.. we were there about 16 months ago on our first randez-vous.. ahh :) here are some photos frm today, i know that you can see only me on them, but i didn't have a permission to upload others;p

have you a good day today? i hope so :)

ohh and i'll add photos which i did when i'll develope them.. because of course i was using my analogue camera today.. :):)

sewing day

another day of learning how to sew, i'm happy cuz i'm gettin better and better! slowly.. but better! ;d here is another coaster.. it's a simple thing but i think it's cute.. ;p (material found about a year ago in a second hand :) - it was a pillowcase before)

and here.. my first Simple Tote!!!! i'm soooo glad! you can't imagine! it looks simple, but it isn't that simple in reality.. well for me, an amateur in sewing.. it's a good job! and again: i'm soooooooo glaaaad of myself!!!!! ;d it doesn't look very pretty, but it's the material's fault.. i have only fabrics from old pillowcases or sheets.. but anyway.. she is sooo beautiful!! i love this cind of bags. big and simple. ahh.. so happy. i hav to go somewhere to celebrate this day. i realized one of my dreams!! ahh ;d

now like i said, i'm going out.. so bye bye and have a superextra happy evening!

xoxoxoxo

LO?

is it a LO? i don't really know;p anyway.. i used my self-portrait photo, and a W.Grzeszczyk's citation 'if all people suddenly took their's masks, which they wear every day, off - they would also be unrecognizable.'

little gloomy, isn't it?

p.s. i'm so happy you like the rock'n'roll tissue cover ann :):)

obsession

i'm obssesed with learning how to sew on my sewing machine! thanks to Simple Sewing book I did a simple coaster :):) i don't have any pretty fabrics, so i'm learning on linen (here) which i have left :)

and here a new case for tissues.. i named it.. a rock'n'roll red lipped miss ann's case.. haha ;d i wanted to give it to ann but it is soooo croocked!! haha;d thi black material is from my old tote bag.. which i destroyed today.. recycling old things is a good thing;d haha
good day for ya all :):)

badge

badge i finished a minute ago.. text is croocked.. i know;p
i never liked this bag for my camera it was so boring.. but now, with this badge (and with some other things i'll try to do in this comming days).. it will look better! maybe i'll use it finally!!

now.. sleep! :) night night everyone

:)

i think i can add this day to a list of almost perfect days :):) why almost? few moments with my boyfriend and my friends and it would be PERRRRFECT! :)

1.lots and lots of sleep (13h?)

2.nice weather (i really like rain sometimes.. it's so fresh today)

3.quick going out to Pogoria City Center to receive a package from abroad.. with..

Lotta Jansdotter's Simple Sewing book!! i dreamed about it for a while.. and now i have it!! (and omg couting money from euro to polish zloty is unreal!! people this book is dirt-cheap abroad, and here i paid a fortune for it!! it's just insane!! it isn't published in Poland, so it's in English, difficult but good for me, cuz i have in may a super hard exam of english, so translating it will help me a lot i think)

now continuation:

4.when i was coming back home, a funny locked guy made my mood even better

5.at home.. i started to sew!!

thanks to Moje Zielone Wzgórze's tutorial and my sewing machine I made 2 cases for tissues!

the first one is quite tight so it will be in my tote. and the second one is bigger, so it will stay on my desk :):) still learning how to use my sewing machine.. but i love it!!

continuation

6. and now, after sewing i think i'll eventually watch Twilight New Moon, i didn't saw it earlier :)

nice nice day. full of relax! wish you a full of relax day also :):)

sunflowers

they're finished! jupiee! heres a photo from the gallery in which i'll defend my diploma work. i love them so much! i'm glad! i didn't think that they will look so beautiful! over 300 elements, 3 months of technical work, lots of blood and pain in my neck and here they are! 100x50cm stained glass work "Sunflowers' by Agnieszka Pietras! ah now wish me good luck with the defending and with the exam of history of art (which i hate). xxxx

100x50cm stained glass work 'Sunflowers' by Agnieszka Pietras!! joupiiee;p

Photo found on my school's website :)

weekend

now this weekend wasn't a very happy time.. but there was some good things like spending good time with my family from Poznań, my parents and my boyfriend.. :) and i got a pretty package with the candy i won here. i was slowly learning how to sew also, thanks to freckled nest tutorial and the candy i won (materials!!) i did a super small pin cushion - just for excersize (nothing artistic o.O). and thanks to a book about sewing I bought last weekend, sewing on my sewing machine is easier o.O

candy i won :)

pin cushion i sewed :)

oh and i got back my computer from the service! i'm so happy! and now i'll be installing programmes all day.. :):)

i hav to go tho school now.. get over my diploma work!! joupiee!! wish you (and myself;p) a good start of this week! good luck!

good news and bad news

lets start with bad news.. whilst i was soldering (lutować) my stained glass work today my dad phoned. he told me bad news. my grandfather died.. you know, he was ill, week etc.., and i knew that this day will come.. but it still was an enormous shock. but thanks to ania and kamila this shock passed away quite quick, and i was able to get back to work. funeral on Saturday.. ehh.. :(

[*]

now better news.. i'm finishing my stained glass work.. and i love it so much! i really really didn't think that they will be so beautiful!

and in the end of this sad post i want to thank ann for 'helping' me with writing the inspiration.. i couldn't write it good. i was scared that i won't do it before Monday.. thank you once again!

Now this situation confirms that 'a friend in need is a friend indeed'.

On Monday we have to give over our diploma works.. that is all projects, a written work about our stained glass diploma work, board with our diploma work and our annexe works (the kaligraphy room in my case). I hope everything will be ok.

EVERYTHING WILL BE OK!

birthday card

simple birthday card. i tried to do something for a man.. but i have only bright colorful papers! anyway, it doesn't matter. what does matter is that he liked his present very very much! once again.. i wish that his dreams will come true!

1 week of school left. 1 week of seeing some of the most unpleasant and and not very wise teachers. 1 week of seeing some of the faces from my class i don't want to see. 1 week of hard work doing my stained glass work. 1 week.. and maybe a super nice weekend with my A. ;*

and after that.. super stresfull oral exam from history of art (i'm so fucked with this one. i do not know anything..), defence of my diploma work, lots and lots of extra lessons from english, polish and mathematics.. and finally high school finals..

and after all this stress.. i'm gonna relax.. and sew, scrapbook, read books, go on holidays.. and omg i'm gonna drink if i'll pass everything! i'm gonna dring and fly above this city under the influence of alcohol!!

self-portraits part 2

well here they are.. self-portraits from yeasterday.. i told you that they aren't that good.. some of them aren't sharp, but i think that it gives some weird.. interesting effect..

here you can see them bigger (something happened, and i can't do it on them o.O):

1. 2.

i hope you like at least one or two of them.. (from all yesterday's 181 photos, there are about 18 quite good ones..). it's hard to do photos without needed equipment.. isn't it?

self-portrait

semestral work from photography.. i'm disappointed a bit. it's not in 100% what I wanted! but you have to believe, that self-portraits with simple desk light are really difficult to do! I hope that my teacher will pick at least one! please!you won't probably see it, but it's a bit inspired by the new 3D film - Alice in Wonderland (by the way - i really liked it :))

i was doing nothing for school all weekend!! but i spent this 2 days with my A. and it was really nice.. I missed him ;*

and now, back to reality - i forgot about tomorrow's 2 tests! but.. my sleep is more important.. so.. goodnight!

everything

except learning HISTORY OF ART (o.O), polish, english and mathematics.. today's lame excuse: learning how to sew by my sewing machine - Kornelia ;p, and making a new cover for my calendar - Noname.

a dice. in reality it is very croocked! it's the first thing i sewed by my sewing machine!!!! it isn't artistic etc. i just wanted to sew on quick something 3D. for a try.. and it's not finished, i didn't do all the dots;p well i have to say, that me and Kornelia are getting closer and closer! slowly.. but closer;d

and the cover of my mini calendar, not complicated, small amount of work and very quick.

oh and i forgot to write, what i have heared on the last episode of Grey's Anatomy (sezon 6th, episode 16th - woohoo tomorrow 17th!), if you know and lovelovelovelove this serial (like meeee) it must be funny for you..

Meredith and Cristina to Little Grey: 'Your heart lives in your vagina!!' (she is sleeping with Carev!!)

ok, enough of my stupidoooo writing..

and if i'll disappear suddenly from the internet.. don't be suprised, my computer hates me.. or at least it's gettin revenge on me beacuse of it's 18h a day work;p forgive me! and don't leave me before the exam of history of art!! i need you!!

can't wait ttyl Saturday..

remember

the Word Wide Pin Cushion Swap? i can show my (all)handmade pillow, cuz from few days it's in Kami's house :)

hope you like it, i'm quite glad i did it. it was the first thing like this i have made.. and it was fun doing it. hope someone will organise a similar Word Wide swap soon.. :):)

hello Kornelia

i love you - already

stained glass

winter holidays.. and i'm in school! doing my diploma work from stained glass, here are some photos i did today during cutting the glass! on the right, part of my stained glass work. sunflowers - i love you! glass i sooo sooo beautiful.

ok. and now i'm going to relax watching 'according to jim' at comedy central. one of the best serial films ever (second place after Grey's Anatomy on my list!). i'm going to relax.. and relax.. after an unpleasant situation with a cry-baby girl from my class.. who raises such people..?!

wish you a nice day (yay! spring is almost here!) without foolish cry-babies!

dreaming about a sewing machine.. aggr no money and such an occasion!!
someone has 300zł to borrow? yeah.. sure.

tutururututuu..

When i came back home after school today.. i saw a package on my desk.. and what was in it?! Pin cushion from Kami, from the PIN CUSHION WORDWIDE SWAP which FRECKLEDNEST organised! It's really beautiful, and quite big! The robot killed me - soooo sweet! And the back of it also gorgeus - colorful and springy (?). Beautiful!! Hope my pin cushion will arrive soon at her's house! It was nice to meet you and thank you!

xoxoxoxo

help -> enormous headache lasting now third day..

have a nice weekend and winter holidays - unfortunately my class has to be in school..

i won

in malflu's candy. when i got back today from my private lessons of Polish i was suprised seeing so soon a small, misterious package. i checked from who, opened and wow! beautiful things malfu sewed and cute buttons! i love buttons, unfortunately i've had just few, now i can do something from them.. colorful and loads of shapes. notice the teddy bead shape! so pretty! thank you malflu so much!!

p.s. oh and i forgot to mention, that i sent a package with the pin cushion to Kami yesterday! hope she'll have it in her hands very soon. and i hope her's pin cushion will arrive here any day!

xoxoxoxo

prom album

sneakpeak

sneakpeak of the pin cushion i'm doing for Kami :) i started it on Sunday, hope i'll finish it this week!

warm up!

i'm participating in a WORDWIDE SWAP PIN CUSHION. i'm terrified and excited! terrified cuz i never did a pin cushion, and that my partner will create something beautiful and i'll do a crap! but i'll try! i tried to sew it from a material i have left from my curtains. well as you see it isn't that bad for the first time. i need a sewing machine! sewing material by hands is difficult. thats why i'll do it from.. felt! now i need a good idea!

my partner Kami, seem to be a very nice and inspiring person.. from CANDA! wow! :)and now in response to FreckledNest post, here are my favourite nail polishes. number 1 - violet from Inglot. Love it because of the colour and because it doesnt bright, it's matt/dull (?)! lo-ve-ly!

old stained glass works

this one from 3rd class

below, works from 2nd class

drawings

here are my two not finished drawings from our drawing classes. 100cm x 70cm. they're not so bad, i didn't draw from september, and i'm not very good in drawing people so i'm glad of them.. or maybe i'll be when i'll finish them up! on the first one Sybilla (similar here) and on the second Ann (less similar..) have to finish them really fast, cuz we hav to do 6 like this one's!!

and here is my (at least!!!!) beautiful! new! red! perfum sample case with 160 perfums! ah now i feel like a buissnes woman! haa! joking. hope my little buissnes will grow up!
nice Tuesday! few hours of relaxing and after that learning hated mathematics..
