Sorry, just a few more...

Last week we went to visit the puppy, he was 3 weeks old then , and o soo cute!!!
It was already dark and the pictures are not that good. I didn't dare to flash. But I will post them anyway. Next week I will go to visit him again and will take more pictures. The girls loved him right a way. !!!!

In four weeks there will be a new member of this family, A puppy. !!!! : )
Cesky fousek.

I know it will be a lot of work but I LOOK FORWARD TO THIS, I just can't wait!

cupboard

Things I like, I have a slight addiction for china & I have been having it for a long time...

the pond with baby fish

It has been a few weeks now that I started with feeding the fish, and they start to show themselves little by little. At first after the winter it seemed that there where no fish left, But there are a lot of them. We even have new black babies of the gold fish (I think) And a few little shiboungkins. I spend all my time watching the fish. It is part of my heeling process.

unloading boxes

I have been unloading moving boxes that had been unpacked for over 4 years and I found a lot of stuff, f.e. these 2 boomerangs. Homemade by Hugo.

my grown ripple & border

I know it is very impolite to let a blog wait for such a long time. but I have my reasons. I have been away on a holiday in Sicily and I had a lot going on over here. I'm surprised I even post something wright now, because a week ago I was thinking of stopping it. I seem to have lost my interest in almost everything. Advise is always welcome. I have been sleeping "a lot" the last 10 days and this helps me. So here are the first pictures...

plunk

These 2 fabrics I bought to make a plunk. I think it will be a little bit difficult, because off the special nose shape, I have made a few sketches already. Will be posting the finished one off course. Plunk is a "Belgium Quality strip figure" made by Cromheecke & Letzer

A lot of sewing to do...

I discovered a shop somewhere in the neighbourhood and the fabric is soo cheep there, that you simply can't resist buying "a lot" of it. It satisfies me so much and I see so many things I would like to make. I hope I will find some time to do it. I already made a blouse of one of them.

more pussmans to come

It takes a while, but I certainly will be making more pussmans! Even a painting in progress!!

growing ripple

It is fun to do!

no blogging lately

I have to apologise for not blogging lately. I don't know why but I don't seem to have any inspiration. I am tired lately and not in the mood to do anything. My work is progressing slowly slowly. Everything is too much. I'm in need of a good vacation and want to sleep!
The weather is so ugly in Belgium, maybe that has something to do with it.
Also the last exams (from the children) are almost there and that brings a lot of tension.
It's like a shy girl, who doesn't know what to say.
So, maybe tomorrow I will be taking pictures. I will post another pic. of Vroefke, Of her I have loads of photo's.

mystery mail package

Hi, this is what was in the mystery package a few day's ago. It is a Japanese, Burmese or Chinese writing box. If anyone could tell me it's origin I would be very glad. I'm very happy with it. It was very, very dirty and some of the hinges were missing.It is a very old box. I repaired it as good as I could, but it still needs a new lock. I am going to use it for storing my oil paint etc... There is even a big space behind the shelves where you can put your canvas etc... This box can stay in the living room, so that, when I want to paint, I have everything by hand. Because this is often the problem with lazy people (like me). That when they want to do something in the evening, and it is to much work to take everything out, they end up doing nothing.
Vroefke has already fully examined the box and she tells me it's okay.

already a little bit.

ripple

I want to start rippling today. I went to the shop today and bought me some colors to get started. I have to have something on hand to do on our holiday in Sicily. I love the colors, and am so curious how it will turn out. I already practiced a little piece.
