Fabric stamping

It's been a long time since I started the blog and so far I still haven't had the time to take pictures of my things! Let's see if the coming holiday changes that. In the meanwhile...
Fabric is the most important thing when we are quilting. Even the simplest pattern, let's say, the one with alternating squares like a chess board, turns out beautiful depending on the fabric (not that I think the pattern is ugly or anything, it's just simple, compared to other patterns). So exclusive prints can make all the difference. If you don't believe in the power of homemade fabric stamping, check these examples. Simple to make, and gorgeous!
You'll never look at a solid fabric again the same way: they can be blank canvas for your imagination!

Welcome!

Hello! Here I'll show things I do, like cross-stitching, sewing, crochet, knitting or anything that crosses my way. I enjoy many kinds of crafts, and even not being an expert in any of them (for now), it's always fun to see the results! Come back often. ;-)

P.S.: I'll try to keep the blog in English here, and in Portuguese (my native language) at http://medleydeagulhas.blogspot.com. By the way, excuse my English whenever needed...
