Helping Cuban People!!!!!!

As a Cuban I feel the desperation of thousands of people who have lost their homes through the 3 hurricanes, Fay, Gustav and Ike, that have so far beaten to Cuba. The images are devastating, not much need to see how the Cuban people that suffer because of this.

The UN estimates the cost of the damage at between $3bn-$4bn.

That's why during the month of September to 50% of all sales of my stores in Etsy will be donated to Cubans who have been affected by the strong impact of nature.

I love sewing

There is no single day that this not thinking about new things. It is difficult sometimes because I haven't enough time. Sewing has always been my favorite things to be occupied. My first experience was when I was 16 years old, my mom bought a fabric to make me a pair of trousers, she went to work and I without telling anything started to do so. To make it I use as pattern one of my old pants and in couple of hours my first masterpiece was complete. When she arrived she was very surprised that I had made so well like made by her. Since that day I started sewing for me and my friends. Here are some of my creations.

No hay solo dia en que no este pensando en cosas nuevas. Muchas veces se me hace dificil llevarlas a cabo por falta de tiempo. Coser siempre ha sido de mis cosas favoritas para estar ocupada. Mi primera experiencia fue cuando tenia 16 anos, mi mama compro una tela pala hacerme un pantalon, ella se fue para el trabajo y yo sin decirle nada empece a hacerlo. Para hacerlo use como patron uno de mis viejos pantalones y en un par de horas, ya mi primera obra maestra estaba terminada. Cuando ella llego se sorprendio mucho de que me habia quedado tan bien como si lo hubiera hecho ella. Desde ese dia yo empece a coser para mi y para mis amigas.Aqui hay algunas de mis creaciones.
