stitch-a-ton

A couple of days ago, we recieved bad news about the health of one of our moderators of ILCS, one of the members suggested a stitch-a-thon in honor of our moderator. Here's what I accomplished:

LK-SAL
I finished the next in line: July


New WIP
I started a project that was RAK'ed to me by Rene (view my blog-entree april 4th): A Baby is a gift from God
(and what better project to start now?)




6 months!
Today my darling daughter turned six months young, where did the time go??

And the winner

of my 50-followers give-away is Donna's Stitching. Congrats Donna!

Merry Christmas

Jelena and I wish everyone a Merry Christmas!





vegetable time!
Since Jelena is turning six months old (young), it's time to start with vegetables. It wasn't a big succes yet, ah well, she'll learn with time I guess.



Christmas baking
I've been baking ...


LK SAL
I finished the next one in line: June
On the July...

LK SAL: May

My wish came true, I finished May a LOT faster than april :) But boy, am I tired!

Here's a piccie (click to enlarge)




by the way: Mel is having a 200 followers give-away, go check it out!

LK SAL: april

Having a little girl that prefers to spend the evenings in mummy's arms is not productive for mummy's stitching, so even this little pattern took me more than a month! (schock!!)
But I finally managed to finish the April stamp.



Hopefully I'll get May done a bit faster!

Sinterklaas and Give-Away

Sinterklaas
kapoentje,
leg wat in mijn schoentje,
leg wat in mijn laarsje,
dank u Sinterklaasje!

It's the 6th of December, the day to celebrate Sinterklaas. Sinterklaas brings gifts and candy to those who've been good, and black coal to those who have been naughty! The kids give their wish-list and hope the good man will bring something from the list.
Of course Jelena is way to young to celebrate Sinterklaas, and yet, a tiny shoe appeared at the fire-place, with a carrot for the horse of Sinterklaas, and apparently a wish-list. The good man obviously understood what she wanted, because ... a new pacifier was lying in the shoe.


Weather
While it's not actually winter yet, the weather is obviously winter-like! Brrrr, it's cold outside! And ... we had snow!



give-away!
Since today is a day for gifts, it's the perfect day to announce my 50 followers (+1) give-away! (thanks everyone for being interested in my blog!)
The give-away once again contains 2 magazines from Borduurblad: the numbers 4 and 6 and a kit (aïda fabric, dmc-floss)

The drawing will happen on another perfect day for gifts: 25th december!
