twin girls

someone asked me to make felt booties for twin girls. I redesigned this pair a little to make it more "girly". one pink pair and one orange pair (not in the picture, they weren't finished when I made the pictures ;-)))

preparing

I'm participating in a project in our neighbourhood called "de parels van bezuidenhout" (unfortunately they don't have a site). people from our neighbourhood exhibit their arts (music, paintings etc.). it's next saturday and I'm preparing to exhibit my felt pieces. So I made some new pieces. Today finished this envelope bag. I like the initiative and I'm curious how it will be.

time

after two weeks of holiday I finally had some time to make more embroidery products. love to make the combinations...see my shop for more new things...

geertje

today we celebrated my mother in law's birthday. She is very fond of the birds in her garden so jilles and stije made her a birdhouse on wednesday, when we visited the goat farm 't geertje. she loved her present.

laptop sleeve

Roel spoiled himself with a new gadget and asked me to make him a laptop sleeve. Since I had no idea what a laptop sleeve is, I did some search on the internet and made this comfortable sock for his new toy. he picked the fabrics and Josephine, he insisted on using the DC fabric you bought us ;-)).

lovely stockholm

no vulcano eruption this time...

crodino

I don' t know why, but I save all my crodino bottles after drinking. I'm still thinking about a good project for them...can't think of anything. Untill I found the brilliant idea I use them for flowers.

cactus

visited the other side of holland to spend a day with family. We did a dwarf walk in the forest with our two dwarfs. also visited a cactus museum (never knew there are so many cactus types, fascinating)

queensday

yesterday we celebrated queensday. In the rain we started our day, selling a lot of stuff from our attic (but of course the boys bought a lot of treasures, so our attic will be as full as before). in the afternoon the sun came out, so we enjoyed a visit to the parks near our house. in one park there is little Japanese garden, but it's only open a few weeks a year, it's so beautiful (the boys enjoyed the small bridges the most) and finally we (traditionally)walked by the queens palace (very nice to have her as our neighbor)
