made for tingles made for tingles tuesday august 30 2011 how do you say no now that the conference last month is over for work its back to focusing on other work tasks that have been waiting for my attention when work is not crazy busy i feel that i have the energy mentally and physically to spend time on my other interests outside of work but the problem is that sometimes i say yes to too many things and then my collection of interests almost becomes a full time job in itself gah that s the sound i make when i m feeling overwhelmed my most recent editing has actually been for a recruitment ad for my dragon boat team cysm sea dragons its on our facebook group page if you re interested in watching 30 seconds of awesomeness http www facebook com groups 66473525448 last tues did a shoot for the 20th anniversary international chinese festival variety concert at melbourne town hall it was a great mix of performers and the lion dance martial arts theatre story was a great idea but had way too many things going on and was a bit hard to follow the operatic finale was the highlight they ve got heaps of events happening over the next few months check out their website for the full program http www icaf com au coming up there are more stage shows to shoot sat 17 aug is a diablo group performance at dallas brooks hall melbourne 2pm and then sat 24 is the celebration of the roc centenary cysm variety concert also at dallas brooks hall which is going to be specatular with many well known performance groups including cysm s special glow in the dark dragon which will look like the dragon is alive they don t perform this one often because it requires a lot of training in ninja blacks and practising in the dark with purple lights to bring out the fluroscent colours on the dragon then theres dr sun yat sen s memorial statue in october in melbourne s china town a project 10 years in the making the committee held their last fund raising dinner on the weekend so hopefully we raised enough to finish the project and of course theres the long list in my head of all the craft projects that i ve got for family and friends and myself i ve got fabrics and ideas for a lot of them too that i m itching to get started i m also humbled and excited to have been asked by a very talented friend to assist with her creative project all i can say so far is that modelling is hard mentally and physically it requires a lot of energy whoever says modelling is easy has never done it before and painting has come to a stand still in the third room its completely painted in stark white prep paint begging for us to paint the colour our excuse has been that its too cold but once the weather warms up we gotta get a wriggle on and then only one more room my happy craft room which will be painted in yellow spark and decorated with pink and jade green tones so close yet so far planning to take some time off in sep oct to try and make some more progress on this front posted by made for tingles at 12 03 am no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels atvaa craft creative dragon boat home saturday july 30 2011 one woman crew at the icaf launch just over a week ago i went along to shoot the launch of the international chinese arts festival at the acmi centre where there was a premiere of a documentary about a chinese russian australian artist one woman crew tonight with the camera to do the interviewing and reporting it was funny trying to frame myself and do the piece to camera first one was really good but then realised that half of me was off camera sections of the artists mural painting was on exhibit and it was absolutely exquisite the detail and the beauty was extraordinary check out the website for more info www icaf com

now recruiting and have a number of open days so we ve shot a 30s tvc airing tomorrow on atvaa on c31 a community tv station in melbourne its all so wonderfully cheesy it s gonna be on during the

evies quilt the journey of garden gazing what a wonderful feeling of satisfaction when something precious and special that you ve been pouring your heart into is so warmly accepted and enjoyed the quilt made it for my god daughter evie s first birthday and has now travelled to its new home in the us i was sad to part with it as i d only had a day to enjoy it when it was completely finished but so happy to see the joy that it brought such squeals of delight i couldn t find the initial sketch that i did for the pattern but my aim was to try doing some pin wheels and puffy squares it pretty much looked as i had imagined so i was very pleased outside border of puffy squares and pinwheels laying out some of the pieced squares and cut pieces the yellow blob of fabric is for the tiger i probably did these first parts a year ago i think and then it went into a long period of hibernation but then with the news of them coming to australia i got my arse into gear no more procrastinating i used a teddy bear pattern from a craft magazine as reference and changed it to a tiger it took me a couple of goes before i was finally happy that it looked like a tiger and not a mouse or a dog embroidery with wool to give the tiger stripes some texture tiger cut out ready for some interfacing webbing stuff although in hindsight i realised that i should have done the embroidery after i had appliqued it onto the quilt because you can see bits of the wool under the light coloured fabric experimenting with the tiger placement originally it was going to be looking at a bee and a flower but then changed to the swallow evie s chinese name means little swallow and she is born in the year of the tiger for the chinese horoscope sketch of swallow with envelope from a pic reference original swallow that i made in pink feather material but then i lost it and totally chucked a hissy fit poor alex and had a little cry but just as well because i think it looks better in the light yellow finished applique with hand embroidery evelyn printed via iron transfer paper thanks to lauren for printing for me cos my computer couldn t reverse the text another hissy fit averted although i realised that next time i can print out the text scan it back into the computer and then reverse it because the program now recognises it as an image rather than text finished centrepiece with machine applique on the tiger originally i was going to name the quilt evelyn s animal adventures but then i changed my mind to garden gazing as its more of a spring afternoon in the garden looking at flowers and birds and garden creatures polyester wadding affixed with spray adhesive to make the puffy squares more puffy hard at work on the machine quilting in my pyjamas pieced back iron transfer photos and left over fabrics inherited from a quilt that my mother in law made for her grand daughter with some fabrics from my own cache putting it next to each other to see what would complement how i wanted the photos to be arranged pieced back with evelyn s name in english and chinese finishing touches the binding makes all the difference as it frames the quilt when evie and family touched down in australia it meant that i had a deadline i had to meet her first birthday party i got the piecing done in time but needed few more days to do the quilting and binding always forget how long binding can take finished at 3am evelyn s garden gazing some close ups of the squares and fabrics evie loves the colours and even her older brother loved it even though he s already got he s own quilt she s very smart and recognised herself in the photos and was pointing to them and her mum asked her to kiss mummy and she kissed the photo of her mum such a cute darling her cousins enjoyed it too when i asked them to look for all the animals and objects i can t wait to have my own bundle of joy to make a quilt for but considering that evie s quilt took more than a year to make then maybe i should start now hehehe posted by made for tingles at 9 48 pm 1 comment email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels craft thursday february 3 2011 something but nothing well proof that sometimes the silent guilt trip rather than constant nagging will get me to get the job done i finally edited a script for an atvaa program and did the audio voice over its a program about scouts in victoria and the producer and editor did a great chinese version the guy who did the chinese voice over has a calming soothing voice like someone who would be narrating a scenic travel doco piece anyways at least thats something done this week plus also got a surprise in the post today of our first order of threadless t shirts awesome posted by made for tingles at 4 12 am no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels atvaa sunday january 23 2011 previous craft work well while we all wait patiently for me to finish my next masterpiece here are some photos from my previous craft work some baby bibs fabrics courtesy of lauren supa kawaii my first practice piece with cute bees chasing after ice cream that they can never get the finished piece for a friend s bday pressie i appliqued a few dresses on the ties close up of the fabrics my friend was thrilled with her apron she cooks and bakes a lot but she said that she only uses this apron on special occasions because its so pretty i really like the scallop edged template i will have to paste the link for the template if i can find it again i always like how different the same template looks just by changing the fabrics i ll have to find a pic of my god son s quilt which is just a block quilt and get a pic off lollybags who made a quilt from the same pattern but different fabrics she gave me the kit actually for my first quilt and i just swapped a couple of the fabrics and added an extra border around the edge posted by made for tingles at 5 54 pm 3 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest tuesday january 18 2011 project updates craft hanging out with the god kids over the weekend which was really special and i showed my friend her daughter s quilt so far and she loves it and asked if i could embroider her name in as well and perhaps put in some birdies because her chinese name means swallow so i m glad i showed her so that she can contribute these ideas d would like to have a go at the 10x10x10 photo project although i m going to wait until internet has been sorted at home had it and then lost it computer is having problems detecting the router and estbalishing a connection house was mightly impressed that hubby painted the ceiling in the guest bedroom without any hints suggestions or nagging while i was away over the weekend there were glow in the dark stars stuck on the ceiling in this room and the previous room which the previous owners painted over so we literally had falling stars when we scrapped them off posted by made for tingles at 5 35 pm 2 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest older posts home subscribe to posts atom followers blog archive 2011 8
