Huis Mortier, 2.




I'm quite charmed by the style of Huis Mortier, especially
like the windows; certainly the inspiration for these cushions!

a butterfly in my hair, thanks a lot Vibeke :^)
Goodnight!

November.





The chocolate cosmos is still flowering, but the greater part
of the plants are brought inside now; sometimes I need to
improvise a bit and make a stool from a stack of books :)







Sunny potholders on their way to Mr Kitly.

New lamp.







Portrait of my back, made by Mieke when we were at
Ruth & Roeland's place.

New lamp from Atelier Solarshop and
finally this cushion done :)



And was dreaming of this dresser, only dreaming of course :)

Watching tv.





I'm working a lot lately; especially the finishing of the cushions
is quite time consuming and even a bit dull sometimes, so I keep
the most unpleasant jobs for the evenings when I can watch tv
in the meantime; my favourites are goudvis and de canvasconnectie
on Sunday evening.

Next weekend it's Karel Martens' turn
and Dirk Braeckman in two weeks on Goudvis.

I also saw this and this on tv :^)



Photo Dirck Braeckman;
want to see the exhibition too.
Very soon, ha!

New cushion with lila spot in the middle.

Goodnight & Sweet Dreams.

Relax.



I stayed home all day, wearing my pyjamas until late in the
afternoon;
did some crochet and made a parcel for Mr Kitly,
including the mobile on the dresser
(hope it will arrive in time :^)

A little gardening,
fall on the terrace and flaming red leaves of the Virginia Creeper,
but still 19°C, bliss!
eating waffles instead of dinner and
going to bed early with a stack of reading material, including
the book of imaginary beings.

Have a nice weekend all!
and sweet dreams :^)









I bought a nautilus yesterday :)

Sweet dreams!

flowers.



Unfinished embroiderie on silk; the colours remind
me a bit of those of my new dress. A bit...
I've done this type of embroiderie a lot, always using a messed up
silkpainting as startingpoint.
recycling, you know :^)



... upcycling, thanks monica :)

New dress :^)









I bought a new dress last weekend;
there's also a belt in the same fabric, but I think that's a bit
too much, maybe the one on the picture is ok, just need to
find the other half... somewhere :^)
The shadows on picture 1&3 come from my geranium; I think
a dress with a print like that would be nice, almost a landscape.


Wintertime!
