<p>I love quilting with complementary color scheme but I also like to play with contrast.<br />
It is such a challenge to match patterns with too many warm colors!<br />
My secret is to use solid colors that go with the pattern.</p>

<p>Adoro quilt com esquema de cores complementares, mas também gosto muito de brincar com contrastes.<br />
É um grande desafio combinar estampas com muitas cores quentes!<br />
Meu segredo é usar cores sólidas que se aproximam as cores da estampa.</p>

<p>I can never repay the debt of gratitude I have for Dr. Rochana Rodrigues &#8211; I have already told the heroic story, which as a House M.D. style veterinarian <strong><a href="../toys-brinquedos/yellow-fabric-cat-gato-pano-amarelo/" target="_blank">she saved Juquinha’s life</a></strong>. But few people know her contribution to my sewing adventures.</p>
<p>Rochana has the most beautiful clinic, all decorated with cats motifs: from the door trim to the phone, from the calendar to the wall clock, cats are everywhere. And that’s what we have in common: a passion for these adorable animals.</p>
<p>Inspired on the clinic decor, I made a doll to hang on a door handle, giving a special touch to a piece that is barely noticed in the decoration of a house.</p>
<p>I decided that my mother should have the doll, because she helped me to make it and she is as fond of cats as I am.</p>

<p>Nunca vou poder pagar a dívida de gratidão que tenho pela doutora Rochana Rodrigues – eu já contei a história heróica, quando como uma veterinária estilo House M.D. <strong><a href="../toys-brinquedos/yellow-fabric-cat-gato-pano-amarelo/" target="_blank">ela salvou a vida do Juquinha</a></strong>. Mas poucas pessoas conhecem a contribuição dela para a minha trajetória na costura.</p>
<p>A Rochana tem uma clínica linda, toda decorada com motivos felinos: do apara-portas ao telefone, do calendário ao relógio de parede, os gatos estão em todo lugar. E é essa a nossa maior identificação: a paixão por esses animais adoráveis.</p>
<p>Inspirada naquela decoração, fiz um bonecos de pendurar na maçaneta, dando um toque especial a uma peça que quase não é percebida na decoração de uma casa.</p>
<p>Resolvi presentear à minha mãe com o boneco, já que ela participou na elaboração do projeto e gosta tanto de gatos quanto eu.</p>

<p>Dani (my husband) was tired of cutting yoyos and finally convinced me that I should learn how to quilt.</p>
<p>My first reation was to go shopping for quilt tools but I still need a sewing machine.</p>
<p>Made a deal to get my sister&#8217;s  brand new sewing paying for a couple of her traffic tickets and went to look for professional guidance.</p>
<p>It was on my home town that I found the perfect teacher for me: good taste, proved experience and excellent speed!</p>
<p>She shared with me the basic tricks one must know to use the sewing machine for patchworking.</p>
<p>After making the traditional pincushion and learning how to sew <strong><a href="http://quilting.about.com/od/quickpiecingtechniques/ss/halfsquaretria.htm" target="_blank">perfect triangles</a></strong> I built my first project: a sewing machine cover with my two loved cats!</p>
<p>.:.:.</p>
<p>Meu marido estava cansado de cortar fuxicos quando finalmente me conveceu a aprender a fazer patchwork.</p>
<p>Minha reação imediata foi sair para comprar as ferramentas apropriadas, mas eu ainda precisava de uma máquina de costura.</p>
<p>Negociei com minha irmã a troca da máquina dela por um par de multas de trânsito e fui em busca de apoio profissional.</p>
<p>Foi em minha cidade natal que encontrei a professora perfeita pra mim: bom gosto, experiência comprovada e pique excelente.</p>
<p>Após fazer o tradicional porta alfinetes e aprender a costurar triangulos perfeitos, construi meu primeiro projeto de patchwork: uma capa para máquina de costura com os meus dois gatinhos amados!</p>
