icecream

welcome Jasmijn...maybe it's because I only have boys but when I can make something for a girl it turns out very sweet (this time literally with the icecreams)

asian fabrics

almost forgot...but I've managed to score some very nice fabrics in KL. By coincidence I ran into a lovely fabric store in the middle of hectic Kuala Lumpur.

washing

Of course we had a lot of laundry after our four week holiday, but my parents made this pile even bigger because they bought more and more embroideries in France (I think they made a hobby out of it, scouting all the markets). It was so much work, but in the end I just loved how they looked hanging to dry.

transformed

last week I did a workshop at zijdelings with Anne, we had a great time, but I'm not sure if it suits me. we worked with synthetic fabrics and dye. Afterwards we visited a very nice exhibition in Eindhoven, meesterlijk. I loved the lamps they are from wonderable.

islamic art

in our holiday I made one special trip with Jilles in Kuala Lumpur. Because Stije was a little bit ill Roel stayed with him in the guesthouse. we visited the islamic art museum, just the two of us. It was a beautiful museum and we had a great time.

back on track

I didn't tell you but we were away for almost four weeks...we have been discovering singapore and malaysia with the four of use. We had a great time and it gave me a lot of inspiration...so the sewing and felting can start ;-)))

little experiment

I was curious how it turned out if I made a garland from felt, the same way they make paper garlands...I really love the result, but it's so much work and I don't know what to do with the result...maybe nice to attach some bells and decorate a pram??
