Knitting new socks and learning hiragana

Started to knit new socks and this time it's in Regia colour 5270.I'm participating in knitting 1 pair a month. http://webstrik.blogspot.com/ Really a relaxing knitting in a lovely yarn.
It's wintertime and a weekend morning when you have no work you really can enjoy it. I'm also learning to write and read hiragana. http://video.about.com/japanese/Learn-Japanese--What-Are-Hiragana-Characters-.htm A very hard work is waiting for me. Enjoy the weekend.

Monday morning

A new week and I already have been working for a while.A little time for a cup of tea and a little blogging.The Christmas time is over and the real winter with a lot of snow is here.The tulips are giving me a lot of hope and inspiration.I did this decoration a week ago and now the green flower,a white flower and the star cloth still are on my table. Tomorrow evening I have a little time for knitting and maybe I make a little embroidery this evening. Wish you all a lovely day.

Quilting

The brain of a quilter found on internet says a little about what I have in my mind today.After a workshop we were doing something to put small or big things in.This little "bag" is a perfekt one for example your little knitting,crochet or embroifery or...Made by recycled ,handdyed fabric and small ball applications.Our inspiration is a thing we have in our mind just now.As the Christmas is ending now and our Christmas tree is leaving our house and all the beaufiful decoration too.Well then I choosed the round form and in the scrap bag I found repro fabrics,only small scraps but enough for the pattern.
