Little gifts!!

The last week I wasn't in the mood to craft, this afternoon, sat down by the sewing machine and things come rolling from it.. the virus is back!!!
My neighbor has giving birth to a boy, and made him a cute blue bunny. His older sister also get a present I made her a zipper handbag, the first time I ever made a bag. It's lovely, hope to make some more, some time to practise and make it more beautifull.

My SIL asked my to make her a bib that see can give as a present to her friend who just has given birth to baby girl!!!This is my progress for so far, It needed to be a lot of pink and purple with butterfly's, I made a lovely pattern so hope to finish it soon

Last week DH had his birthday, and made him a lovely ice cream pie. I make it every year, because he loves it so much...


Noah can talk a lot more, it's going so fast every day he learns more words...He can count till 10 and loves to do it, he also nows some letters from the alphabet, the goes like M P Q Z... Expecially he loves to Z.
This afternoon he wanted to paint so here is the result:

When you look good to his face you see that he has a thick cheek and upper lip.
two days ago he fal down very hard, he was crying whole the evening. The next morning it was over, but you can see it very good. At the moment it's having a kinds of colors, purple, blue and green... I can't touch it that hurts very much...

Thanks for the pregnant congratulations... I'm still feeling good, have a lot of problems with my muscles, but that's normal for me...My belly is growing and growing peolpe asked me how far I am and freak when they hear that I'm only 14 weeks...

Thanks for stopping by, hope I can craft more. The idea are growing in my mind...
I love to read your comment.
Till next time...

GREAT NEWS!!!

As you can see in the above banner I have great news....
After a while of trying I'm pregnant, at the moment exactly 11 weeks..
I feel fine, no nausea only a little bit tired so now and then.
Noah loves to give the baby kisses on my belly and hopes it will be a little sister..hihi. We just hope everything will be fine, I'm due January the 21th. So I have a lot of time do make beautifull things for the baby, I'm so full with plans, Also wanne make a birth piece, and growth chart.. and think I'm going to make it from Winne the Pooh again just like I did for Noah(It's only in Dutch, In the beginning I only bloged in Dutch).
Here a picture of my big belly, just like with Noah I'm big already
You can't see it good on the photo but when you see me in RL you think I'm 4 months..hihi.

Stitching news:
I have a almost finish, and just on time. My first part of the LK SAL is as good as done, I'm out of 712, so ordered it, but just realized I forgot to pay it... so need to do it tommorow the get it..hihi pregnancy dementia, as we call it here!!!And just in time finished because tomorrow the next part will be mailed..

Last Monday the SIL's of a colleague organized a babyshower, and another colleague and I where invited.
At that moment I still hadn't told them I was pregnant because Tuesday I gave them a dinner for that.
This a the presents I made:



Another little baby clothes. The babyroom is purple so I stitch with purple, and I know she loves Miffy, found a picture of it and made it purple with MS paint, and with transfer paper iron it on the baby clothing. She loved it..
A while back I found a tutorial for this lovely bunny to make it from a old T-shirt. I don't have any nice old T-shirts so found this pieces of tricot, and tada..

Today we went to the ocean (I live nearby, 5 till 10 minutes drive). Noah loves to swim in there, he laughed from the beginng till the end when we came out of the water he cryed very hard. He has eczema and the salt water bit on his skin, after a minute of crying and a cookie it was good again...

Thanks to you all for stopping by and leaving a comment.. I hope you came back

The first I made is off white with dark bleu stitches
And I just finished the second off white with varations bleu stitches
I had already given two sets that I made for Noah when I was pregnant so now they have four, I hope that will be enough..

Update Panda Days

I'm busy busy busy, so not much time to post, but had some time to stitch.
It's such a lovely pattern, I'm so in love with it..
Look for your self Look at that lovely colors..

I have also been busy with felt and paper. Here are my red roses..
Red felt is so hard to get on the photo. I'm thinking of making more but don't know where to put it, so that's still for the moment more time to stitch on Panda Days.

My baking tour..hihi... I tryed something new what almost nobody knows..
It's called a Bolus here in my dialect it's called jikkemien. The link is in Dutch, because the English page don't have a picture.
Mine don't look at the pictures, they tasted, smelled the same but don't look liked it. So I was looking for a better recipe, and the reason it didn't look the same was beacause of my recipe the rise was to short. So soon I will make them again.
It's our regional dish and I want to learn how to make it.
Here is the pictures of my try You can't see much because they look like someone sat on them...

Last Friday Noah has fallen very hard, his face was open, a lot of blood. My SIL had her birthday and Noah was playing with her son on the big slide in there backyard. many time they whent on and off, and one time Noah stept of the stepladder and he fell on the grond. OMG I had tears in my eyes so was he screaming. Al the blood was from his mouth he had bitten his tongeu. After a few days it looks better.
Here is a picture poor poor Noah, this afternoon he was trying to get the crust (hope it's the good translate) and he succeed, then came the crying.. poor boy.
