I'm making some socks of this wonderful yarn I received from my swap partner from sp11. It's gorgious yarn and I love knitting with it.


I have been to the first snb evening of the snb group in Etten Leur. It's a very nice group of woman, we chatted a lot, done some knitting, looked at several nice knitting books and we all had a lovely evening.


I have bought some fabric so I can start with another quilt as soon as my small wallhanging is ready.





And these lovey fabrics I have bought last year on our weekly market. It's lovely dutch fabric and I'm going to use that for several projects.

Here is my cat Diesel on his favourite spot where he can watch everything that comes by Ü.

This week I made this lovely hot pad for my teapot.I have put lots of lavender in it so when the hot teapot is on it the room smells lovely. I hand quilted the heart and it gives a great effect.

And here is finally the swap I received from Teresa. She made me this lovely scarf, look at those beautiful stitches! She also send me some yarn so I can make mittens. It's gorgious!

She also made me this lovely dishcloth.


I also received some lovely chocolates but they where gone before I could get the camera....
And I received a lovely stitchery kit but somehow I removed the photo from the camera and now I'm working on it. I will show it here when it's done.
Here is Teresa's blog http://happyyarns.blogspot.com/
This lovey card, gorgious hand-dyed yarn and cute charm I received from Christie.
It's from the rak group over at Jayne's attic forum.

I hope that everyone has a lovely weekend.
