New doll: Ava

Nova punčka: Ava

Ava adores trains. She enjoys meeting her fellow passengers and listening to their life stories. She loves long journeys where she can observe the changing of the landscape and even see one or two wild animals on the way. Believe it or not, once an actual deer winked at her while it was drinking a cup of tea with its neighbour vixen.

Ava obožuje vlake. Uživa v spoznavanju sopotnikov in poslušanju njihovih življenjskih zgodb. Najbolj lepo se ima na daljših potovanjih, ko lahko skozi okno opazuje spreminjanje pokrajine, še posebej pa jo razveseli, če skozi okno opazi kakšno divjo žival. Ne boste verjeli, ampak enkrat ji je iz gozda pomežiknil čisto pravi jelen, ki je mirno srkal popoldanski čaj s sosedo lisico.

Did someone say steampunk?

Steampunk is a sub-genre of science fiction, which involves an era or world where steam power is still widely used — usually the 19th century and often Victorian era Britain. Works of steampunk often feature anachronistic technology or futuristic innovations as Victorians may have envisioned them; in other words, based on a Victorian perspective on fashion, culture, architectural style, art, etc.

This is why steampunk dolls are usually made off metals like copper, brass, steel and iron, rivets, gears and cogs, wood, leather and glass. But have you ever seen a steampunk art doll 100% made of yarn? Here it is!

Victoria loves reading books and is passionate about all kinds of machines. She's dreaming of becoming an inventor just like her big idol Leonardo da Vinci. She is approximately 14'' (35 cm) tall and it took me 17 hours to finish it.

Steampunk ali parni punk, kot bi mu lahko rekli po slovensko, je žanr znanstvene fantastike. Dogaja se v svetu in času, v katerem se še vedno redno uporablja parni pogon (ponavadi gre za viktorijansko Britanijo iz 19. stoletja), vključuje pa futuristične inovacije in razno tehnologijo. Prav zaradi tega so punčke, narejene v stilu steampunka, najpogosteje sestavljene iz raznih kovin, kot so baker, medenina in železo, zakovic, kolesja, zobnikov, lesa, usnja in stekla. Ste kdaj že videli tako punčko, narejeno iz preje? Tukaj je!

Victoria rada bere knjige, strasno pa se navdušuje tudi nad vsemi vrstami naprav. Sanja o tem, da bi postala inovatorka, prav tako kot njen idol Leonardo da Vinci. Visoka je 35 cm, za njo sem pa porabila kar 17 ur. 

Meet the bride!

You really shouldn't say "I love you" unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget. ~ Author unknown, attributed to an 8-year-old named Jessica

Ne recite "Ljubim te", če tega ne mislite resno. Če pa ste v to prepričani, povejte pogosto. Ljudje pozabljajo. ~ Neznan avtor, pripisano 8-letni Jessici

Ice cream Lucy

Low temperatures are starting to show also on my dolls. This is why I dressed Lucy in colours which remind me of winter or maybe cold but tasty ice cream. But we can't get enough of latter, can we? :)

Nizke temperature so se začele kazati tudi v mojem delu, saj sem Lucy oblekla v prave zimske barve. No, vsaj mene spominjajo na njo ali morda kar na hladen, a slasten sladoled. Tega ni nikoli dovolj, kajne? :)

Night, stars and Lilith

I have finally finished it! It took me a while, but now she is here: me new handmade doll Lilith. She loves to sleep by day and count stars and create by night.

Končno mi je uspelo! Res, da je trajalo predolgo, ampak tukaj je najnovejša ročno izdelana punčka Lilith. Podnevi najraje spi, ponoči pa se povsem razživi, šteje zvezde in ustvarja.

Sunshine and rain

Last weekend brought my country heavy rain and floods, so I stayed between 4 walls for the most of the time. I was dreaming about sunshine and this is how Zoe was created...

Ker nas je ta vikend presenetil z obilnimi padavinami in poplavami, sem večino sobote in nedelje prebila med štirimi stenami in sanjala o sončku. In tako je nastala Zoja ...

Sea & Vivi

I have always loved the sea. I've enjoyed waves, diving and fish spotting. Even the little crabs could not escape from me. I rarely see the sea nowadays because of the lack of time, which is why I put a bit of it (at least in the form of inspiration) into the hair of my latest crocheted girl, named Vivi.

Vedno sem imela rada morje. Uživala sem v valovih, potapljanju in gledanju ribic. Tudi rakci niso bili varni pred mano. Danes pa zaradi pomanjkanja časa le redko zaidem na morje, se pa zato morje (vsaj v obliki inspiracije) skriva v laseh moje najnovejše punčke Vivi.

Who's my new roommate?

Her name is Lili and she loves the clouds. She often lies under the sky and just dreams, dreams, dreams.

Moji novi cimri je ime Lili in obožuje oblake. Zato se pogosto uleže pod nebo in sanja, sanja, sanja ...

New girl in the house!

She is finally here! Because I always do at least three projects at the same time, it took a bit longer for me to finish my gothic girl. This was also the first time that I have used safety eyes (yes, there were some problems :). And now I am wondering how to name her. Any ideas?



Končno je tu! Ker se vedno lotim preveč projektov hkrati, je trajalo kar nekaj časa, da sem punčko dokončala. Tokrat sem prvič uporabila varnostne oči (brez težav pri nameščanju seveda ni šlo), zdaj pa mi manjka le še ime za njo. Kaka ideja?

More to come

Since I have been crocheting for a while now, me closets are full of crocheted dolls and other animals or monsters. The collection of earrings is also growing.

They told me that they are getting a little depressed in there, so I am letting them out. Here they are, enjoy!

----------------

Ker sem ne kvačkanje drži že nekaj časa, se omare pridno polnijo s kvačkanimi punčkami, živalcami in drugimi pošastmi. Tudi predal z uhani pri polnjenju čisto nič ne zaostaja. Baje pa je v omari kar temno in nič kaj veselo, zato je čas, da zverinice spustim na plano.

... in že so tukaj, uživajte!
