Queensday

Today it's queensday here in the Netherlands. We celebrate the birthday of the queen, in every town there are activities organized. The royal family visit every year a other province, this your it's my province. Because of the terrible event of last year it was heavily protected. She visits the 2 town each for a hour, so it wasn't worth going too that town with Noah and it was rainig!!

A update of my chickens:The two right pairs are done, And this afternoon I saw I was runing out of another treads, so need to order it.

Jippie jippie the suit's for the boys are done!!!
This afternoon I did the last stitch:
I'm so proud off myself that I made them...and I'm also glad they are done. What a work it was....

Because of the bad wheather en Noah who slept out till 09.30 AM we could not go to the queenday parade so we did lovely things inside.
We baked cookies again. I have some new shapes.


Noah loved it.

Noah is totally in love with ladybugs at the moment Here we call them "pimpampoentjes'. he can say pipapoentje....It's so funny.
So today we whent ladybug crafting too.:
More of that later....

Oww forgot too show a lovely picture of Noah his new apron.

It still hurts but I can work with it. So now I have a finger with 2 holes in it and a finger with a bruise on my nail....

Noah was helping me with the needles, He loves playing with them, but is a bit too dangerous for him....

Fabric and more sewing update!

In my last post I mentioned I was going to stitch.....
A few stitches I have done, but not much more darn...
But I have some sewing craft done.
With my friend and her morther I went to a big fabric market, and look at what a bought: When I saw this girl-fabric I fell in love, needed to buy it..
And this is the fabric that I bought for the duvet cover, you see.... not much stitching done...
But I love the fabric with the baby-feet.... It has inspired me to go stitching.

My memobord is also a bit further: I saw the ricrac on the market and loved the idea to use it, but as you see I bought not enough... need to buy some more, hope next week to finish it..

The girl next door is turning 2 next week, we celebrate it tomorrow and this is what I made:


It's a lot diffent then the one I made for Mika.. This time it closes with a button, I like this better.
And it's girlie....
I love the color pink, Tess is getting a new bedroom because there is a baby coming, and her new room is al pink pink pink.... I hope see likes it.

Noah loves playing outside in this lovely weather.
Here I have some lovely pictures of him.



When I put the slide in the front garden al the little children in the street wanted to play with us. Noah had such a wonderfull week...

So... the sun is shining and I'm going to work in the garden a bit before I need to go to work tonight.
Till next time, thanks al for stopping by and leaving a comment I really love reading them

Only sewing update

A while back I made the BUMBA outfit, but Noah's wanted to try it on, I hated it when I put it on him.
But last week I was walking on his room and point out to it, so... and this is how it looked like.

So adorable...

I have been sewing on the outfits for the wedding, the jeacket and blouse are almost done.

Yesterday it was my nephew Mika's 2nd birthday (Happy birthday to you little Mika), so I needed to make a sewing gift.
This is what I made a pencil-rol and of course Bob the Boulder needed to be on it...




He loved it and so did his mommy.
He tryed out the outfit... I looked so cute.
Here is a picture of the two boys.. I haven't stich one stitch this week, but now I will.
Till next time.
Thank you so much for stopping by and leaving a comment..
