* ALICE MARGAUX *

My niece Alison became mother of twin boys,  so it was a good opportunity for me to cross stitch these lovely dears. I love the colours and the hippy style, a bit different than the usual baby stuff. When I was in Holland I visit them and cuddle and kissed etc. these sweeties. They stayed a while in the hospital, but the boys are at home now with mum and dad. the blog of Melanie she is great with patchwork http://thepatchworkrobin.blogspot.com

Tomorrow evening I fly direction Holland, this time with our own KLM and the great thing is, it is a direct flight. That means I fall a sleep in Rio and wake up in Amsterdam, where my sweet daughter Myrthe is waiting for me.                                              In a couple of hours I can hug you darling.

My american friend Jennifer shares the love for BLUE AND WHITE with me. She even extended the colour scheme to her living room, she bought recently some nice BLUE AND WHITE cushions for her gigantic lounge furniture. So I took the opportunity to make an extra cushion for her. I cross stitch a sampler with a blue multi colour thread and finished it with some ribbons, beads.                                                                                     the blog of Valma, she so creative                                                                            ...

I bought a new bedspread set in bold colours. Bright orange and red, well I had to change some other items in my bedroom. First I made a new cover for my cross stitch cushion.               From the left overs of the fabric I made a tablecloth with a orange ribbon                                                 and a cover for the director chair in the corner.                                                               The new bedspread set.             The view from our bedroom window, you can see a little bit of the pool                            ...
