Slova za Gretu / Personalized letters

Personalized letters - Greta

Nedavno sam po prvi put postala teta. Rodila se Greta.

Čak i prije njenog rođenja su mi pale na um razne ideje, neke sam i realizirala :)

I recently became an aunt for the very first time. Greta was born. 

Even before her birth several ideas came to my mind, I managed to realize some :)

Prije ovih slova sam joj sašila dekicu koju sam vam već predstavila

Boje za slova sam izabrala prema njoj.

Before I made these letters, I made this ruffled blanket that I already have introduced to you

I made letters in matching colors.

Izrezala sam slova koja su mi se najviše sviđala.

I cut out the font I liked most.

Ostavila sam jedan uži dio nesašiven (mala strelica), to će mi trebati za punjenje kasnije.

Slova "R" i "A" su zatvorena slova, njih sam malo modificirala (veća strelica).

I left certain parts unsewed (little arrow), I will need this opening later on for stuffing.

Letters "R" and "A" are closed letters, I changed them a little bit (bigger arrow).

Izezala sam ih kako pokazuje slika jer se inače ne bi mogli preokrenuti.

I cut them out like this, otherwise I would not be able to turn them out.

Ovo su preokrenuta slova.

Primjetila sam da su mi oštri uglovi donekle zategnuto ispali.

Letters turned inside out.

I noticed that sharp angles were a little bit wrinkled.

Ali, kad sam ih napunila punilom za jastuke, sve se izravnalo.

Otvor se može zalijepiti ljepilom za tkaninu, ali meni nije bio pri ruci pa sam ga ručno
zašila, pažljivo, malim bodom.

But when I stuffed them, wrinkles had dissapeared.

Oppening can be glued with fabric glue, but I didn't have it handy, so I handstitched it very carefully.

Slova sam zatim isto ručno zašila za tekstilnu traku.

Traka je dosta duga, tako da može imati različite namjene;

može poslužiti kao girlanda na zidu sobe, na prozoru ili krevetiću, čak kolicima.

I also handstitched all letters to this fabric ribbon.

This ribbon is pretty long, so it can have different uses;

it can serve as garland on the nursery walls, on the window or crib, even on baby stroller.

Ali, za što sam ih ja zamislila - pokazat ću vam slijedeći put :)

But, what I imagined to to with it - I will show you next time :)

Nadam se da vam se sviđaju!

I hope you like it!
