Sunday in the shade

Happy Easter to all of you!
I spent my day embroidering in the shade, because it was too hot in the sun. We're having the most summery April month in decades, I guess. Yesterday, Belgium was the warmest place in Europe!


And my daughter has her own blog now: "Mrs. Spikky Sparrow".
Crafting and drawing, the next generation.

Easter duckling

I just wanted to show off my new cookie tin, isn't it lovely???

Happy Easter

This is the result of my work last week, I painted the wall of our dining room in my favourite shade of blue.

We have two brown and two black chickens. The brown ones always manage to escape, they just crawl underneath their gate, chicken run!

Nice easter embroidery, found in Marie Claire Idées, spring 2005 issue.

To all of you...

a happy Easter!

A happy blog

Bella Dia has a very cheerful blog to look at.

Cute Easter chick.

This tutorial for a crocheted heart is something I want to try!

I love this serie of little felt houses, such an inspiration.
