January things

I know, I was out quite a long time.
Actually I have been inn, but not in the little bloghouse, only in the little real-house.
And I worked.
Indeed!
Look what I have made:

I chosen some cherry fabrics




I made a few designs and calculations
 


I cut and stitched...
And look what it came out:

 


Then I looked carefully at it and it seemed to me to be a page of a coloring book...
Again I cut, I stitched.... But before putting together the front with the back side of the cushion, I colored a little, the front side. Just a little bit...

As colored pencils I took a few threads

 


 And I began to color. I mean embroider:

Here




and there


here



and there


and so on.......

At the end resulted a cute colored cushion:



And so, the both cushions are done!
 

I am continuing.....
I will be back soon (I hope) with news.

Till then,

Have a beautiful day!

Happy New Year!

Here we are in 2010! In a deep foggy juicy weather.
It's the first day of this new year and I am glad. But I am sad too...
I'm glad because 2009 is gone.It was a-not-so-good-year for me, for us.I don't want to remember why, because I am here, in my bloghouse, where the bad things are not allowed!
I'm sad, well...just a little sad, because one more year is tripping me away from the milestone marked with the number 50 on my life way...
I'm glad because I feel that my real age, my inner-age, has nothing in common with my official-age and I have and I can so much to do yet...
I'm sad because I didn't find the way to be more efficient, to do much, to embody more of my ideas, to better organize myself....
I'm glad that my people (my family) are in good shape and my son, V. is still a great guy...
I could continue that way on and on, but I think I confused you enough...
All in all, let's hope that more of our  prospects (mines and yours, my guests) will become true and we will be in good health to do more good things in 2010!
Let's hope that at the end of 2010 we will have a great sized bunch of  accomplishments and more good friends!





HAVE A BEAUTIFUL YEAR!

Winter days

Christmas is near and we try to prepare for it.
It's not important the glow, but the spirit!
So, let us pave the way for this:

crocheting little things


stitching, embroidering or quilting some others
 




showing around the for-legs-guys enjoying the winter days


and  dreaming of a good wood-fire and a large cup of steamy cofee (or tee, or  red wine....)


and having an old winter song




Have a beautiful day!

It's snowing!

Hello,hello!
I'm back!

I was working on a present for someone who was .... years old. A very special Lady. It was impossible for me to concentrate my self on something else! I wanted very, very much to make a special thing. Something from the bottom of my hart. I'm not sure that it turned out well. It's a bead embroidery which now is at the shop for framing. Maybe I will show you, finished.
For the moment, just steal a look at a piece of it:


The only break on my work was a few hours spent on a traditional fair organized on the St. Nicholas day (6th of December) at the Peasant Museum. There were a lot of artists exposing and selling the most different and wonderful objects. I couldn't help buying some carefully made little things.
Look at them:

    Do you like them?

In the next posts I will show you more. I have prepared a few photos for the posts from around the Christmas.

Now, when I'm writing this lines, it is snowing like in fairy tales! It's the first really snow of this winter. It started this morning and now we have already a really woolly snow carpet.It starts to look like Christmas....
I'm really, really glad....I am thrilled with joy!
It's the only period of winter when I want to snow. I don't like the winter because of the cold, but  at Christmas and New Year I like to have a whole lot of snow.

So, even my car is happy under his fluffy coat








Just after I took this picture, when I turned my back, returning inside, I looked around and I saw a young man expressing his after-glow.
Look the sequel:



What do you think?
Do you like or dislike the winter?

;o))

It was good to be back with you in my little bloghouse!
I hope for you, too!
I'm going back to work, now. Lots of projects in my mind....

Have a beautiful day!
