Last December,
Patricia from the blog Pequeno Mundo a 3 had the greatest idea ever: she
decided to ask several Portuguese bloggers if they would like to make a Christmas
gifts for the kids living in a Charity named Mum's & Kids
, a nonprofit association that helps and shelters mothers
and their kids. This was the kind of thing I was willing to do for long time so
I immediately said yes.
Patricia created a spreadsheet for us to choose the kid we were going to
sew for but, as usually, I was late signing in and all children were already
taken. So I thought their mothers would also be glad to receive a Christmas
gift and I made infinity scarf. Who doesn't like a soft and colorful infinity scarf?!
PATTERN: Infinity Scarf by Imagine Gnats. I love infinity scarfs! And Rachel
has put together such a great tutorial with all the tips there is to easily
make them. I love that these scarfs are all sewn from the wrong side so there
are no raw edges showing on the finished garment. Perfect easy and fast project
to sew and perfect piece of garment to wear!
(I had lost my dummy's "neck cover" when I took the photos but I am glad I have already found it. So sorry for the photos!)
FABRIC: Solid knits from my local shop (Feira dos Tecidos). I went
fabric shopping with my blogging friends Ines and Rita and we all thought these
fabrics were perfect for infinity scarfs. They are soft and have a beautiful drape.
Plus, I had lots of fun matching the colors…
The Christmas cards were made with a helpful hand from my daughter
Teresa. She was really fund of this project! And so was I!
Marta, até calhou bem teres chegado "tarde", de outra forma talvez as minhas tivessem ficado de fora, e incluí-las nas prendas foi um lindo gesto. Estão lindas as tuas golas.
ResponderEliminarAdoro. As mães também merecem um gesto de carinho <3
ResponderEliminarAs tuas infinity scarfs são mesmo giras e com um aspecto tão confortável. Certamente irão ser usadas e apreciadas :-)
ResponderEliminarTenho a certeza que as mães adoraram! Também merecem uns (muitos) miminhos! Ficaram lindos e adoro o jogo de cores! Parabéns Marta!
ResponderEliminarGostei muito de fazer parte deste “projecto” com todas voces!
ResponderEliminarEstavam maravilhosas Marta! :-) Obrigada!
ResponderEliminarOh, what a great idea, and these are perfect for it! They look so comfy and soft, love the colors you chose!
ResponderEliminarWow how lovely! Such a great way to make someone feel special!
ResponderEliminarAdorei terem pensado nas mães, que também precisam tanto de um miminho! Parabéns quero entrar na próxima! Bjs
ResponderEliminarEu fiquei com imensa pena de não ter trazido também este tecido cá para casa - as golas ficaram fantásticas! As mães devem ter ficado mesmo contentes ;)
