My newbees

Dear all

I show the latest things I'v done.1.Knitted wristwarmers with an crochet edge from a yarn, Knit Picks 70%Baby Alpacha,30%Silk, I'v got from my Mellow secret pal.Thank you.this is just a thin soft yarn I really recommened to everybody.

2.2 new snowflakes I made on Monday.It's a thicker cotton yarn and tge snowflakes are good in the Christmas tree or as a decoration in a window.I hope I have time to do some in a very thin cotton yarn.

3.The third picture is my choice of colours to a Mystery in embroidery.I have choosen those colours because of the colours we have just now in wintertime with -27C..Of course the green colour is something I want to remind me of flowers inside and later outside.We have soft blue,white,pink,turqouise......even if it's a white winter.I hope I can show you more of this mystery in a week or so.

I have been not so fresh ,flue and fever have been taken so much strenght from me but I think I'm going to be more inspirated next week end.Until then have a nice time

Malmö

Dear all

I have been on a short travel to Malmö and I could see the big bridge tfrom Malmö(Sweden)to Denmark even if it was really stormy and snowy.We were having a break at a wonderful café in Malmö-Les trois roses chocolaterie.So much chocholates,both swedish and from Belgium.And a cup of tea.And we saw a wonderful arrangement of tulips and other green "flowers" on a table outside a flower shop.Many french tulips.Just so fantastic.



During the time since I wrote to you I have been crocheting and I hope I can show some pictures later.The last 2 weeks have been full time at work and many things to do privately.

Dear Bea and you all.I have bought some new kits and I have found some patterns for free on the internet.Not a stitch in 2 weeks.I long for it but sometimes we need more hours then any day and night can give us.

Take care of you

Winteractivity in cross.stitch




My latest embroidery is from a pattern in marieclaire idées Décembre 2005.A pattern I have followed not to 100% but nearly.I'v added DMC silver and perhaps I havent used the right colours because of the diffucult colour marked only with colour and not with symbols.When you do wintermotive and not have 100% good to see,it's really hard.

I really enjoy the magazin and often they have a nice pattern too.We have differnt styles on our patterns and also colours used between the countries.Another thing I'm very fond of is when they use white or red on natural line,not any other colours.I think this is a great tradition in France.Very beautiful and very inspiring too.Something I want to do sometimes.

Tomorrow I start working full time and the "stitching honeymonn" has ended.I have to do a scar,knitted,to my son befor Sunday and prepare a little for the course during the weekend.I hope I can do some stitches on a RR I have..

I wish you all my friends a nice new week this new year 2006
