Ok. I don't know for where started! Yesterday in the morning, my fiancé and I, were watching a tv show like every day to this hours. And.. of soon, the conductive tv started to talk about a sewing machine... I thought, wou!  really is a  low price for this machine. During the morning my fiance send me a message.. and said: Today we will go to buy the sewing machine!!! Y said: WHAT!? ... we don't have money!! and He, so sweet, said me: with credit card haha... I started to search more stores where was the sewing machine. In the afternoon, we got to the stores, we look, and regrettably the sewing machine had a high  price.. buuu! .. I fell sad, but in this moment a saleswoman approaches us and said: Hey! there's other offer! a overlock, add, sewing machine for $199.990 (U$ 400) .. OMG! perfect!  this duo is  Brother.
Today I will prove it!

Lavender Tea DiY

A pesar de que he tratado de tomar fotos de mi vestido de punto negro, no he podido, cuando lo usé no había nada luz como para tomar unas buenas fotos, así que ese asunto queda pendiente.

Por estos días empieza el frio en Chile, la verdad con todo esto del cambio climático, el otoño más parece un "verano fresco" y no como debería ser. Mucho frio, las primeras lluvias, árboles sin hojas y mucha humedad. Parecen días de verano con un toque invernal, nada más lo bueno es que las noches están frias, así que puedo abusar a destajo de mi hábito del: Té.
Hay uno que preparo yo misma que me encanta, le llamo, mix de tés con lavanda.

Es muy simple:
-Lleva Lavanda fresca o seca (flores incluidas) un buen ramillete
- Té Verde en hojas (1/3 de taza)
- Té Verde con Jazmín en hojas (1/3 de taza)
- Té Negro en hojas  (1/3 de taza)
- Clavo de olor (3 a 5 palitos)
- una varita de canela



Pongo todos los ingredientes en la tetera para el té, agrego agua a punto de hervir y lo dejo a fuego bajo hasta que rompa el hervor. Apago. Dejo reposar el té unos minutos y luego agrego un poco en una taza y relleno la taza con agua hervida que haya bajado su temperatura a 90° u 80° C.
Cuando hace calor le agrego rodajas y jugo de limón y lo sirvo bien frio con hielo... Sirve para cualquier época del año.


Although I have tried to take photos of my black knit dress, I could not, when I used it there was no light to take good pictures, so that the matter is pending.

These days the cold starts in Chile, the truth in all this climate change, autumn seems more like a "Cool Summer" and not as it should be. Very cold, the first rain, trees without leaves and high humidity. They look like summer days with a touch wintry nothing good is that the nights are cold, so I can abuse the piece of my habit: Tea.
There is one I prepare myself that I love, I call it, mix with lavender teas.
It is very simple:
-Take fresh or dried lavender (flowers included) a good bunch
- Green Tea  (1/3 cup leaf)
- Green Tea with Jasmine (1/3 cup leaf)
- Black tea (1/3 cup leaf)
- Cloves (3-5 sticks)
- A stick of cinnamon

I put all the ingredients in the kettle for tea, add water to a boil and leave on low heat until it boils. I switch off. I leave the tea to steep a few minutes and then add a little in a cup and fill the cup with boiled water that has lowered its temperature to 90 ° or 80 ° C.
When it is hot I add slices and lemon juice and serve it cold with ice well ... Fits any time of year

METALLIC STRIPES SWEATER DIY

Trate y trate de tomar fotos del suéter que me hice ayer, pero lamentablemente al ser la tela negra no pude tomar buenas fotos, todas salían saturadas o muy negras :( ..

Así que estas son las mejores... de todas formas, la confección es muy simple, hice unos diagramas que facilitan verlo. 

I tried and tried to take photos of the sweater that I did yesterday, but unfortunately when the black cloth could not take good pictures, all saturated or very dark out  =(.

So these are the best ... anyway, the clothing is very simple, I made some diagrams to facilitate him.

Lo primero: Ocupé 1 metro de tela de punto. Con rayas metálicas.

Segundo: Ocupe otro suéter para hacer los moldes. De esta forma me aseguré que me quedaría bien. Medí muy bien la prenda de base y trate de reproducirla lo mas fiel posible en el papel.

Tres: Una vez que estuvieron listos los moldes, los puse sobre la tela y corté. 

Cuatro: Para poder coser esta tela, ya que no cuento con overlock, usé cinta bies en cada una de las costuras. Esto no solo sirve para facilitar la costura, también sirve para que la tela no se deshilache. 

Cinco: Paciencia como siempre y disfrutar de los resultados de hacer tu propia ropa.

First: I took one meter knitted fabric. With metallic stripes.
Second: Occupy another sweater to make molds. That way I made sure that I look good. I measured the garment great base and try to reproduce as faithfully as possible on paper.
Three: Once the molds were ready, I put on the fabric and cut.
Four: To sew this fabric, because I do not have overlock, I used bias tape on each seam. This not only serves to facilitate the stitching, it also serves to make the fabric fraying.
Five: Patience as usual and enjoy the results of making your own clothes.

Notas:  Yo cosí el biés, con puntada ZigZag dos veces, luego lo doble y volví a pasar la costura en zigzag. 

Notes: I sewed the bias, with zigzag stitch twice, then twice and I passed the zigzag stitching.
