More aprons

These aprons are made from kitchen towels that I cut in half. I’ve decorated the pocket and put some red ribbons on the aprons. Very easy to do!

Hearts

These past few days I’ve been sewing a bunch of hearts. I maybe will sew some more, but with other fabrics. I’ve also started to do a few more aprons, which is really fun to sew!

Help!

Last week I was checking out the place where I will be selling my things, at the Christmas market. It’s an old stable. It’s a beautiful place with old cute houses. So, did I have the camera with me and took a bunch of photos to show you how it looks like? Noooo, because I’m a bit senile…
I don’t know what price I should have on my things that I will be selling. Do you have any suggestions? Please help me!
Here is some of the stuff I’ll be selling:
Aprons

Big hearts

Small hearts

Textile "pots"

Christmas stockings

Wall hangings for Christmas cards

Wristlets

Makeup bags

Tissue holders

Shopping bags

Quilts for baby

Tissue holder

I’ve been thinking for a long time to do this tissue holder and today it finally happened. It didn’t take a long time to sew. I found these tutorials for making a tissue holder at whip up and Bella Dia.

Christmas stocking

Today I have finished a Christmas stocking. I’ve used bits of fabric, it takes a bit longer to sew but I really like patchwork.

Niki at Nostalgia at the Stone House has also done a Christmas stocking, check it out!
Hulda has also started with Christmas decorations.

Here she is…

I manage to keep her still for a second so I could take the photo.


The first photo...

Maya sweater

This evening I did some sewing. Took one of my daughters sweater and did an appliqué with her name on it. Tomorrow I try to get a picture of her with the sweater on. If I can get her to stand still for a second…

Look what I found!

Was looking at the Swedish web shop Inreda.com when I saw this purse. I love it, it is hummmlan style. It’s the Danish company Rice who makes a lot of lovely things.

1 month

When Maya was one month old she just eat, slept and poo… That is what has been written like a frame around the layout… I've tried to take a photo on the 14th every month, so it would be exactly a month between the photos. She is born on the 14th of May 2005.

"It smells like a little child here!"

The first year

I’ve started to do a mini album for my daughter. It’s about her first year here on earth. I have only done the front page so far… It’s going to be 12 pages, one for each month.

Illustration Friday (change)

When my sister was little and started to dress her self my mother used to say: - Can you please CHANGE clothes? Mum thought the colours didn’t match. But my sister didn’t care, she was happy and thought she looked stunning.

Candy? No, buttons!

Went to IKEA the other day and bought some more glass jars. I love these ones! I think it is looking a bit like the pictures from an old candy store. I have these in my secretaire (bureau). I’ll show you some pictures of what it looks like inside, when I have tidy up in there…

Take a look at this. Here is a girl who is crazy about glass jars! I just loooove her studio!

Makeup bag

Today I have done a makeup bag for my niece, she is 17 years old. I think this is her style, or I hope so… The fabric is NOT blue it’s lilac. But my camera says otherwise! Here is a great tutorial for making a lined, zippered pouch. The other makeup bags I have done, I had to stitch the lining by hand. With this tutorial it shows how you do it on the sewing machine. This is the only thing I have been sewing today, my back hurts so I can’t sit by the sewing machine no more today. I hurt my back a couple months a go and I go on physiotherapy twice a week.

I’ve got mail!

Finally the package from Panduro arrived today! I’ve waited almost two weeks for it… Not all things that I ordered was in the package, I will get it in a couple of weeks. I’ve ordered some more fabric for the Christmas things I’ve been working on… Are you tired of hearing me talk about Christmas? I’m a bit tired myself ;-)

Tomorrow I will sew something, I have the apartment all by myself! I’m not sure yet what it will be. Tomorrow I show you some picture of it!

Wristlet

When you don’t need your big bag… fill it with your little things and you are ready to go!

Corners of my home (Kitchen cabinet)

I’ve been sick so nothing in crafting has been done… I have a couple of ideas what I should be sewing next, so I’m anxious to get started! I also want to do a bit of scrapbooking, it’s a long time since I did a layout. Stop the time!!

Aprons

The aprons are finally done. My dear sister was so kind to act as a model! I’m doing lots of things right now that relate to Christmas. It’s because I’m going to sell my things at a Christmas market.

Something for your nuts?

Here is a textile pot or a bag, I don’t know what to call it. You can also use it to have candy or nuts in it. Or what you want! This is as well for the Christmas market. The “pot” is reversible.

Sneak peek

Here’s a sneak peek on the apron. I soon will hit the sack so the apron maybe gets finished tomorrow. Or an other day, you never know…

No time to craft

I have nothing new to show you, not enough time to craft. Maybe I will find some time this weekend to use my sewing machine. I think I will do an apron.
This is my cutie pie…

Corners of my home

I thought I should show you some pictures of my home. I really like this white and clean style. But I have a soft spot for oriental design too, like they have in India. This is one of my favorite shops, “Indiska”.
