Sampler

I'm working on this gorgeous sampler freebie. I'm not really a sampler person, but I just love this one ...it's so beautiful ...so I decided to stitch it. I just changed the colors.

Pracujem na tomto peknom free sampleri. Nie som velmi na samplere, ale tento sa mi strasne paci ...je nadherny ...tak som sa rozhodla, ze si ho vysijem. Pouzivam farby vlastneho vyberu.

Fevrier Biscornu

This is what I've been up to in between crocheting ... I chose a bigger project and felt like taking a brake from it for a while. So here it is, my february biscornu from Atalie. Looks like I'm still in Valentine mood ...lol. (I have a question: How do you call this kind of stitching in English? I just don't know how it's called and I'd like to put a correct label for this post. Your help is greatly appreciated).

Tak na tomto som pracovala medzi hackovanim ... vybrala som si totiz trochu vacsi projekt a citila som potrebu dat si malu prestavku. Takze tu je, moje februarove biscornu od Atalie. Vyzera to, ze som este stale vo valentinskej nalade ... :D

Scary Weather

We had definitely crazy weather over the weekend. If you heard about the strong windy storm close to NYC, that was it. It was really scary ... There are many fallen trees, branches and other debris all over ... many of them damaged the houses, cars, etc.... and there is also flood from too much rain. There were even a few causalities. We lost power for one day ... well, we consider ourselves to be those lucky ones, because there are still about half of the city without power and it is not expected to be fully restored until Wednesday, so, it's 5 days without electricity ...cannot even imagine that ... We also have 2 knocked down trees, one behind and one in front of our apartment building ...luckily, they didn't caused any real damage.
***
Cez vikend sme tu mali skutocne blaznive pocasie. Ak niekto pocul o silnej burke so silnym narazovym vetrom blizko NYC tak to bolo ono. Bolo to strasidelne ... vsade naokolo je plno povalanych stromov a konarov ktore poskodili domy, auta, atd... a tiez je tu pozaplavovanych vela oblasti zo silneho a husteho dazda. Bolo tu dokonca aj par umrti. Stratili sme elektrinu na jeden den ...ale povazujeme sa za tych stastlivejsich, pretoze pol mesta este stale nema prud ktory podla odhadov bude uplne obnoveny vo vsetkych domacnostiach az v stredu, takze to je 5 dni bez elektriny ...ani si to nedokazem predstavit... Tiez mame dva vyvratene stromy, jeden pred a jeden za panelakom ...nastastie ale nesposobili nijaku vaznu skodu.

Christmas Tree in March :)

Another one of my crochet creations. This time it's a Christmas tree. There is an outside border in the original pattern, but I didn't like it, so I left it out. Now, I'm not sure whether I should leave it the way it is now, or to look for another border.
***
Dalsia z mojich hackovanych vytvorov. Tentokrat je to vianocny stromcek. V original vzore je to este cele obhackovane dookola, ale mne sa ten ramcek nepacil, tak som ho vynechala. Teraz rozmyslam ci to mam nechat tak ako to je, alebo pohladat nejaky iny vzor na okrajovy ramcek.

A Little Heart

I think the cold I caught several days ago had a crocheting virus in it ... lol ... because it changed my mood and instead of stitching, I've been crocheting ... and there is more projects to come ;)
***
Myslim, ze nadcha ktoru som dostala pred niekolkymi dnami mala v sebe hackovaci virus :)) pretoze uplne zmenila moju naladu a namiesto vysivania hackujem ... viac projektov nasleduje ;)

Pinkeep

So, here it is ... promised photo of my finished pinkeep. I was waiting for the nice weather to take the photos, so I could capture the right colors of the fabric and the thread, but the weather has been crazy in the last couple of weeks ...either raining or even snowing ... Finally, the Sun has decided to show up today, so I took advantage of that :)
...more photos here ...
***
Tak tu je ...slubena fotka dokonceneho pinkeep. Cakala som na pekne pocasie aby som zachytit skutocne odtiene platna a bavlnky, pretoze pocasie bolo v poslednych dnoch dost blaznive ... prslalo alebo dokonca snezilo ... A ked sa dnes slniecko konecne rozhodlo ukazat, tak som to vyuzila :)
...viac fotiek tu ...
