Hello world, this is me :)

Did you missed me?? :O
I have been away.. twice.. lucky girl that I'm. =))
My new goal is not making long post anymore, so you will see it in a few different post. :/
This will be a craft post next post vacation pic's...

Almost four weeks ago, my MIL had her birthday. wanne know her age? ;)
I think she is going to kill me this weekend after reading this but here it goes.. :)))
She turned 60.... YEAH
But she still looks 45 .. hihihi.. kidding =)))
For her birthday we all went to the Belgium coast.
with the 11 off us we had a great weekend.

A birthday needs a present.
What to give some-one who has everything.. :$

She loves flowers and her grandchildren so lets combinatie those...
Working with felt is so great, so that is also something.

This is what I made
A felted pot, full of felted flowers, and on 5 flowers added the photo's of her 5 grandchildren
I'm very happy with it, and so was she.

They never die and don't need any water.. how easy is that :))))

After seeing a few of my handtowel bags that see likes I tought to make her also one.
There living-room colors is red (made a red pot and mostly red flowers)
So a red towel bag was born =)))
With a rose as button.

What do you think of my presents?
I'm glad with them... up for another birthday!!


As you maybe noticed is that my monthly goals where ....... NOTHING.
I was away most of the month, so nothing in the planning to make.
But on my other vacation I did a bit of stitching.. will show it on a later post.
And for the curious ones.. I also went to Turkey, got back last night,  more about that later

I'm way behind on blogs.. sorry.. I'm going to read them all, but it will take a while.. 
I didn't forgot about you!!

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

It’s june agian.. what is time flying fast. =))
So that mean I only had 1 post in May. =( that for the first time..

 Let’s start with the goals from May :$ :$

Start crocheting a pillow case. Oops.. :( :( :( :( nothing done on this, still thinking what kind of treat I wanne use for it.. I’m thinking of sewing a few first that’s faster..
I want new ones, got tired of te old ones. ;)))

 Start on Kira’s stitching owl. That a goal I’ve been doing.. and liking it very much.
The pink color I using is so pretty, and the fabric is feeling so soft, just a soft as the treats.
Here you can see how far I got

Start on Noah’s blue lamp crochet cover. Nope.. ;( also nothing done.. just forgot about it.. ;(
But the year is almost on the helft so I have time enough to start it..

 Crafts birds for may and make a X-mas ornament..
On both a nope too ;(
 Didn’t think of to it too.

 But then my last goal painting my front window vases.. Yes I have done it.. and even a mirror..
Kira fell with the hall shoe-cabinet so I wanted to buy one the kids can’t fall with, and the new one is white, buy the mirror from the old one not.. so painted that also.
 It’s hanging again, but need to paint one more time.. Here you can see the vases.. I really love it.

In my last post I mention that I’m making dolls out of felt. I started with the faces.
I made a few more, and made eye’s and a mouth on them. I’m loving them.. so cute..
These have to wait a while to be finished. I ‘ve started a bit bigger one.. also very cute and I’m making it for Kira.
 More of it I hope in my next post.. can’t tell more about it, I’m so loving my new hobby =))))))

 I had still a order that I had to finish, and I did. On time A birthday garland for a boy that turned 2 this past weekend. I’m so happy with the end result.. loce the colors..
 Made photo’s in the garden but you can’t see the letters that good, so made a picture inside also.
 I love it, and the new owner also.

Then Kira’s little dress.
Here I have a old photo. In my next post I’m making a sewing post you can see the end result.
But for now a end result of the top part piece of crochet.. Curious for the end result???
You al need to wait… hihihihi Here the WIP

 A colleague had her birthday and I wanted to make her something. Look what I did:::::
It's a bag made of towels and dishcoth. If you take it apart, you can use it in the kitchen.
I made another one for Saskia, who toghter with her daughter Dominique came and visit us with Pentecost (Pinksteren in Dutch)
Dominique (9 years) made me a beautifull drawing
She is taking draw-lessons.. can you see... she does it so beautifull.
Saskia also brought me something great homemade strawberrie jam and look how she decorated it
