Winter.




I spend a large part of the day under my blanket,
drowsing, with a crate of clementines beside me.
Browsed through my new Gaudesaboos book.
It's an imaginary story about a childrens TV-character
that was very popular in the early sixties.
It is all fake, with manipulated
photos from the Belgian TV archives, but it looks very
real, at least all the merchandising.
It feels like winter started today, freezing cold,
they forecast snow for Tuesday :-)
Are you prepared well, is your roof sufficiently
insulated??
I did some extra croching!!

I made this patchwork together with my mom,
it was my first one.

Tuesday, remember!!!

  4. Everything was better in the 60s, my husband says. I cannot say myself, I was born in the 70s but somehow I think 60s were groovy. Even in Czechoslovakia. Oh, in Czechoslovakia, they WERE groovy.

  8. We are eating lots of clementines, too. My daughter takes 3 in her lunch bag. The quilt is lovely. I like simple patchwork patterns best.
