The end on the month and got a package

Happy Leap Day to you all..
The last day of the month, so time to look at my goals... at the end of the post also a surprise that I got.
Let see what my goals where:
1. Make many hearts in diffents crafts
2. Stitch and finish a snowdrop
3. Do some stitched on Panda Days
4. Finish off Noah's blue owl.
5. Crochet a Xmas ball

For the first one.. I forgot to take a picture I see now, and its already to dark..
But I have crochet some hearts in dífferent cottons, there are in my braches above the table...
Need to get them out for the next decoration this week, so I will try and remember to take a picture then.

For point 2, I need to finish the snowdrop... DONE!!!!
And because I love the snowdrops.. March will be my snowdrop month for now.
I'm making snowdrops out of felt..
Not a easy job, because it's so little, but it looks so cute.
I already finished two, here you can see them

Do some stitches on Panda Day's ...hihihi...
I FINISHED that one..lol :PI'm still so glad with it. And from all your comments to see you did to..
I even heard that a hubby liked it... :$ :$ :$blushing.......

Noah's blue owl...
I can tell it's beautifull...
Noah was thinking something else, when I finished it and gave it to him, the first thing he said to me was.. mommy make a new one with wings ....=)))))))))
Isn't he the CUTESTTTTTTT ;P
DH isn't in to owls, but even he liked it.. so I'm glad..
He is sitting so cute on Noah's bed, waiting for a BIG friend.. a plan I have in my mind for a long time... wait and see..
Make a crochet Christmas ball...
That isn't hard there are so many freebies of that.
Just picked one out and started
It's a bit small but I like the outcome.
It's fun and easy to make.. in the next months will make more of these

Then came the month March.. what will we do with it.. Because Easter is in end of the first week of April I will use march to make Easter crafts... and will only make some snowdrops for March decoration..
So here goes:
1. Finish my felted snowdrops
2. Make a lot of Easter crafts...
3. Finish Noah's memoboard
So only three for this month.. I have so many other things to do too...

For the Easter craft..... I already started with a stitching piece.
A beautifull Biscornu from Barbara Ana ..=)))
I really really love the colors that I'm using for it..
Only DMC 4124 I don't have so will use....... I think 741 for that.



More will come...

The fabric is my favorite evenwaeve, The needle I'm already using because I lost mine.. and it's my favorite needle,, it's a fire needle.. so hope it will burn for some time..lol..
The threads feel so soft, and the pattern is very clear.

WIP -> Panda Day's and ice-skating

Panda day's was calling and calling..
But to many things came in between..
Then I was tired of te calling :P
Finally I toke it and started again. ;P
It's such a pretty piece.. to bad I left it all along for so long =))

This is how It looked wen I put it away last year


And this is how far I was a few day's ago
I LOVE IT !!!!!
The colors are beautifull pastel, love how it's turning out with al those backstitching..
The only things that is to bad that you can's see all the back stitches..
Must of them are grey, french knots are grey, and a lot of cross stitches are grey.. on the eyes and feet you can't see what I all have done there, also some white back stitches..
The backstitches on all the leafs are green, it's almost the same color as the grey..
I can't wait how it turnes out when I finish the upper flowers.. only those are left..
I don't like to keep all the backstitches till the end, so already finish to for 2/3.

We still have cold, snow and ice...
Years ago as a teenager I iceskate everywhere.. now I'm a mom and I'm scared.. ;(
I saw so many pic's from friends on FB how there where ice-skating with there kids, I was so jealours.... but to afraid of falling in the ice..
After seeing pictures that 2 schools here had skated on a pond, then I know it save for me to..
So this morning got the ice-skates from Noah out of the closet and gave it a try..
We all love it.
So mad on my selfs that I didn't do that a week ago, then I could have done it every day.. Noah loved it so much..
Here you can see us skating.. even Kira..lol =)))))))))
DH and I don't have ice-skates (YET!!)we wanne buy some for next year..
This afternoon we had a little bit of new snow.. so great to watch with some hot cocoa from the inside.. really love watching that...
So maybe we will get more day's of skating!!

Garland's and snow ;)

As promissed the garland's I made all last month.
To begin with this one in order.
This little boy turned 3 years a few days after KiraHis mother loved to have a blue one. I love how it turned out ;)

Then needed to made the ones for Kira.
First I wanted to do a pink and a red one.. but had to little red, so made a dark and light pink one.I stupidly forgot the made a photo when they still where hanging in the living.. But I think you get the picture how pink it was here.. and with a lot of pink balloons..;P

When my MIL saw the garlands and got back home she texted me if I had another...mm...NO.. But I can make it..lol.. I had a few days to make it, but I finished it on time..
I made a rainbow garland with 14 different fabrics in 7 different colors...
You can't see how great it was on the pic, but when we hang it up in the living at my MIL's house, It was so great.. I made it 9 meters, als long as there living is.
It's a beautifull colorful garland =)))))

Then I have two more order but then in felt. Two girlie Hello Kitty name garlands..I working on them right now.

As you can see in my header, we have snow.. For a few weeks it was just around zero degrees, but just before the weekend I was getting lower and we got SNOW!!!!!!
We love snow, and Noah the most off all.We are already had two days with a lot of fun...
Today we are watching from the inside...This morning the kids where watching Happy Feet (Kira for 5 seconds---long enough to take this pic lol ) =))))
Tomorrow another day to enjoy all the snow!!!
