YELLOW!!!!

It was a busy week, we went to my work and to DH's work with Noah en Kira, still we have people coming over too see Kira. Not many people wanted to come in the first week, only for the best for Noah.. it was to busy for him that first week after Kira was born,.

Because of the busy week I haven't done much, only stitched on Bumba.
And finally his dress is done!! Jippie
(Noah was driving with his fire-truck..hihi)

Now only need to do the smaller part, hope to finish it soon.

I have done a bit of crochet.
My garland looks now more on a garland. Just finished another piece, so tomorrow attach in on the garland.
I think I need to make still about 10 more... so it's not finished yet!

This week when we where walking I picked some Forsythia, outside it's to cold so not yet in bloom, but inside it nice and warm, and it's blooming
And to finish this post my beautifull kids!!


Till next time!!

I wanna thank everyone for visiting my blog and especially everyone who leaves a comment!!I love reading them!!

The tree is done on the birth sampler, the only thing that's left is all the leafs..

A little girl must have cute hairbands..


It was so fun to make.. when she is a bit older I wanne make new one's with a bigger beautifull fabric flower on them!!!
They look so cute on her with her beautifull hair..

Stitching update and a new crochet project!

I finally have decided what to use for color for the leafs on my birth sampler.. So here is my progress:The tree is als good as done...only a few flowers and leafs on the bottom
I so like the tree...

Because the birthsampler is so many counting and little stitches, I got out a WIP from last year with easy big color pieces!
This is how it looked like last year:
And this is how it look like now: I finished all the black, and started on yellow from Bumba!

Here the pictures of my finished February stamp from my Lizzie kate SAL
Still need to at the ribbon on the flatfold, but don't have one I like....

Them my new crochet project..
I have a beautifull sideboard... And a few weeks back I saw a pictures on a blog of someone who had made a garland and hang it on the side board.. I so loved it, it's in my head all the time... how to make it from what to make it.
I have now the idea of making a garland from al my crafts.. so felt-crochet-stitching-sewing...
I made my first 2 pieces for the garland with crochet... And I like it so much.. maybe I'm going to make a garland with only crochet pieces..hihi... still thinking it out
(also a lovely idea for a bikini....hihi)
But more of this project later!!

Then on the last of my post pictuers of my beautifull children..

Much to show!!

I wanna thank everyone for there lovely comment on the beautifull pictures of Kira... She is such a sweetie, I enjoy watching her every minute of the day!!!!

In my previous post I mentioned the finished Lizzie Kate August stamp


Also started on the September stamp.

On this post of Nia's blog, I got so inspired, so googled a few ice crystals patterns and got my felt and started cutting.
I made a pictures of them hanging in the branches above my table, but it's hard to make a pictures of it (I have made eleven so far), I will make a picture of it when I put something new in it!!
But what will I do for February.... any inspriration will be welcome...I wanna do some thing with heart, but what??

Remember my lovely orchid.. I just made a picture of it!! On the day Kira was born the first flower came to bloom, en yesterday the second one.
I hope the rest will hurry up!!!

We got so many beautifull gift for the birth of Kira, lovely dresses, other beautifull outfits and stuff
And I was so surprised of the gifts I got from bloggers!!!
This lovely thing I got from a stitching friend, I got her addicted to crochet too, so she is making me very curious with sending me blurry pictures of what she is crocheting for Kira This I got from Saskia
These cute socks I got from Katrien, who also has a beautifull baby girl of about 6 months This beautifull card is from Tineke, from the CSL yahoo group
From Josee, a Dutch stitching club I'm a member (she makes many big pieces and sell them, the money goes to her foundation for children with Down Syndrom, she has a grandson with Down)
From Pytsje also from that Dutch club
From Hetti, from the EMS site

Thanks you so much ladies... I love all of it..

I hope I don't forgot anyone... I just made the pictures today, and it's hard to remember from who I got everything. So If I forgot something please let me know

Also Noah is very spoiled with gifts.
From my Belgium SIL he got Play-Doh, and loves playing with it!!
We play with it everyday!!

On the day Kira was born I also won a crochet give-away.
I forgot to take a pictures buy here is the one from the blog where I won it:

I won the blue one!!

And look at this lovely pictures of Noah and Kira:
So that all for today!!
