Annette's pieces: Update's

The birthsampler is progressing well. I choose two lovely pink colors, for the name and weight/height and birth-date.

It's not done yet, need to stitch the Christians names and I think some more leaves. But I think to finish it this month (FINALLY).. This week is my step-mothers birtday, so Noah made a drawing and I made another card

The garland is finished, but after I have given it to the birthday boy I will post it on my blog.. I do have a photo to show, I started a secret gift.

My SIL told me last week dat her mother (his grandma) also wanted a overall that I made for him last December.. but it was a joke... hihi I started it anyway and finished the back

(translation -> Grandma's sidekick)

Need to finish it before this weekend, so tonight when Noah and Kira are sleeping, my sewing machine is making overtime Then I made this piece

Last week I went to a funeral of a boy that only was 1,5 years old, from a former friend, and they asked to bring something personal for him. They sad that he was a butterfly now and is free , so I made a little bleu butterfly with his name on it. My toughts are with his family I wanna thank everyone for visiting my blog and especially everyone who leaves a comment!!

I love reading them!!

Marion zei: Annette je bent lekker opgeschoten met Pooh. Het kado'tje is geweldig en daar zal de krijger heel blij mee zijn.
Wat triest om een vlindertje te maken voor deze gelegenheid. Je moet er echt niet aan denken.
