Some spots.











I had a visitor this morning, who left a very undesirable
spot (photo 3) on my chair :-)
the other two spots are holes stuffed with wool; I saw
this feltingtechnique at Woolfiller; found via kaylovesvintage
some time ago, don't remember when; you should try
this too, it is very easy and fun to do.
Happy weekend everybody!

Busy.









I'm taking a short break; need to focus on some new
projects, so there's not much time left for blogging;
hope to be back in a week or so.
Photo 1 is my new kitchen shelf, you've already
seen the remnants a few posts ago :-)

New cushions.










I'm working on a series of new cushions, some will
have an embroidered lining, others will have a
plain back.
There's gonna be a little webshop of my own soon.
(a small one :-)
Would love to see Achille Castiglioni's studio in real!

Have a nice weekend everybody :-)

Building a kitchen.



This isKatleen's kitchen; I love the shelf she made,
with those nice plexi sliding doors.

Today she started building me a kitchen;
we are halfway now but the result is Wow :-)
Photos later.

My new home, 6









I started decorating parts of my appartment last week;
the mobile fits perfectly in this room because of the low
ceilings, actually these are two, but I hung them
so closely they sometimes overlap eachother's orbit;
love to watch them and it is very hard to maintain
any discipline here and pick up the thread again,
also because of the sunny terrace :-)
The cute animal comes from a needle lace book and
is a detail of a reticella piece; forgot which book, sorry.
I will show more needle lace later!
Made the smyrna cushion last year, still not yet finished,
as usual.
Bye, bye :-)

My garden.




Wood pigeon love affair next to my kitchen table :-)

... while I did some gardening.
I got different varieties of tomato plants from a friend,
such as
Green Sausage, Coeur de Boeuf, Santalina and
Brandywine.


I got a marjoram and an edible-leaf beet too.
