we are on the Urfa-Mardin-Midyat-Batman-Diyarbakir route…one of our favorites
this time with a very merry Argande team…to learn more about Argande (not to mention the region) and to share the love…
we learned quite a bit about the developments regarding this impactful joint UNDP-SIDA-GAP Project which started in 2008 and will be continuing at least till 2015…we’ll digest and share the highlights in the coming days…
for now just a brief hello to you :)

simdilik yanlizca kisa bir merhaba demek istedik…
working on something new…
pazar calismasi…
nothing new… we have been a fan for a long time… but luckily found a chance to actually visit Barcelona lately! and of course ran towards “Sagrada Familia” first!
goosebumps and tears were the first reaction…
then came picture time of course…
like nothing else we have experienced (“seen” doesn’t cut it!) nothing!
&
senelerce Gaudi hayrani olduktan sonra hayranligimin olabilecek en ust seviyelerde dolasiyor olmasindan, tam da daha artabilmesinin mumkun olmadigini dusunurken…
olanlar, ben Barcelona’yi ziyaret etme firsatini kapinca oldu!
ilk is “Sagrada Familia“ya kosuldu; buyulenmenin esasli versiyonlari yasandi, gozyaslarina zor hakim olunuldu, kollardaki tuyler uzun bir sure pes etmemecesine dikildi…
fotograflar anlatmaya yetemiyor olsa da, kendime biraz da olsa geldikten sonra cektiklerimi paylasiyorum…
today it was the official ‘children’s day’ in turkey…
a national holiday…a day dedicated to all children by Ataturk, the founder of our country.
since we never really grew up, it was basically a national holiday dedicated to us, a holiday to celebrate as we saw fit..
and we decided it was a wonderful day to be outside with our beloved four legged friends …
malum bugun 23 Nisan’di…ulusal cocuk bayramimiz…
rumisu’da buyuyemeyen iki cocuga ait olduguna gore…gun bizim gunumuzdu…
biz de kendimizi dort bacakli arkadaslarimizla cayirlara bayirlara ataraktan kutladik
olayin hakkini verdik.
one half of rumisu is currently in barcelona fighting hungry dinosaurs for her jamon sandwich…
i am wagering on rumisu…hungry dinos don’t know what is coming towards them….
rumisu’nun bir yarisi su an barselona’da…
ogle yemegini ac dinazorlara karsi savunmada….
dinazorlara birisi kol kanat gerse diyorum….
yoksa soylari tukenecek…;)
when we heard that illustration friday chose ‘wild’ as its topic this week,
we could not resist to sketch a quick self-portrait with one of our ‘wild’ buddies…
here it goes…
bu haftanin illustration friday konusunun ‘cilgin’ oldugunu duyunca,
dayanamadik cilgin arkadaslarimizdan birisiyle portremizi cizdirdik eli kalem tutan bi arkadasa ;)
where you can find rumisu goodies!
excited?
we are!!
we looooove www.twofoldstyle.com
which is a lovely online shop carefully curated by a fellow textiles enthusiast Jessica Warner, an Australian globe-trotter.
we are very happy about our online neighbours as well…
thanks to Jessica we discovered a number of new designers, who bring together innovation and age-old crafts in their own unique way.
check out Jessica’s curation and fun blog to discover more :)
finally, let us thank her with an ancient Mexican graphic design that we actually pilfered from her blog ;)
eveeeet, heyecanla, rumisu’nun yeni sanal adreslerinden birini paylasmak istiyoruz sizlerle…
bizim gibi kumas ve tekstil delisi, Avustralyali gezgin Jessica Warner’in ozenle sectigi tasarimlarin sergilenip satildigi bu siteye tez ugramanizi oneririz!
