Maar we begonnen al met iets leuks, nl. spelen met een bruin pupje van 14 weken! Dan doe je weer net zo gek als toen je zelf 14 weken was! En een spontane nette sta-foto! En de eerste stapje op veilig ijs! Oef wel ENG hoor na mijn avontuur begin februari! Tot slot lekker op een botje, eh stok bijten, voluit in de sneeuw! Zal maar niet vertellen wat ze daarna thuis deed…niet erg smakelijk!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Wonderful weather, although we were halfway catched up by some heavy snowfall. But it began with meeting a little brown labrador puppy and we played wonderfully well in the parc for a while. Floppy was so gentle with him, even when he bit her! She was acting as if she was 14 weeks herself again later on when she challenged him to run! And a proper sponatnious stand picture! And the first little steps on safe ice! Wow, that was quite scary after my adventure earlier this month! In the end I could bit a bone, eh stick, down with my belly in the snow! I won’t tell what I did later on at home….not very tasteful&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-8516933390975725130?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/8516933390975725130/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=8516933390975725130' title='1 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/8516933390975725130'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/8516933390975725130'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2012/02/laatste-sneeuw-pretlast-snow-joy.html' title='Laatste sneeuw pret/Last snow joy'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh6.ggpht.com/-E6GjjOYObxw/TzfgDla0buI/AAAAAAAAHt0/_sI7LNgL7Rs/s72-c/IMAG0104%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B4%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-104189721727640826</id><published>2012-02-12T14:13:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-12T14:16:08.429+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='M-BOM'/><title type='text'>Update Margo’s BOM</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Nee, niet de nieuwe die ze gaat starten op &lt;a href="http://simply2m.blogspot.com/"&gt;Simply2M&lt;/a&gt;, maar de eerste die ze maakte.

Ik ben ff naar het park Flopke nog een laatste keer in de sneeuw laten spelen! Daarna ga ik weer verder steekjes zetten in dit blok! Hopelijk komt ie vandaag nog af!

I still love this quilt with the piano border, but haven’t done much about it. I thought I take one day break from Jane and finish this center piece, but I can’t decide which center to add, the 1st. of 2nd. star picture? I love the soft spring colours of the fabric line from Fig Tree, the FQ bundle I will make this quilt with. Tempting to continue!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Have a great day! I am off to the parc to let Floppy play one last time in the sno, before it all melts away in the next couple of days. After returning home I will continue stitching up the center block of this quilt. Maybe I can finish this one today! After that I can easily make the surrounding borders by machine.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-104189721727640826?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/104189721727640826/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=104189721727640826' title='2 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/104189721727640826'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/104189721727640826'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2012/02/update-margos-bom.html' title='Update Margo’s BOM'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh5.ggpht.com/-OO9y8IJCOl4/Tze61_x-geI/AAAAAAAAHsk/u-CVxtM9HTg/s72-c/MBOM_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-7624554855790231649</id><published>2012-02-09T17:28:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-10T16:12:02.875+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Floppy/Flopke'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Algemeen'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Jane'/><title type='text'>Wall of Encouragement over @ Rosa’s blog</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-caeuqqZIRKc/TzP2CU7UZZI/AAAAAAAAHrk/7jJbqORg6Bc/s1600-h/image%25255B3%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="image" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="222" alt="image" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-zhq7V0TK1eY/TzP2DMPeJ6I/AAAAAAAAHrs/zqumLEFECd4/image_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="260" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Vandaag was een ochtendje Zwolle gepland, nee niet voor shopping, maar voor het ziekenhuis, de diabetes poli. Alles voorlopig onder controle en als het niet goed gaat (dwz hogere bloeduikers), dan moet ik eerder terug om de pomp helemaal door te spoelen. Dat is altijd een langdurige klus, maar wel het resultaat waard hoor! Je voelt je niet echt happy met hele hoge bloedsuikers! Als je maar wel weet waar het van komt! Niet dus nog!&lt;img title="PICT0169 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="200" alt="PICT0169 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-vor7dWRuKOo/TzPz9r2dItI/AAAAAAAAHqg/lc8C8HajGrE/PICT0169%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="260" border="0"&gt;Vanmiddag dus lekker met Flopke uitgewaaid in het park. Heerlijk gespeeld weer met haar in de sneeuw. Ze blijft er helemaal mesjogge van! Er doorheen rollen is het leukste! En natuurlijk eindeloos spelen met haar werpbord! Gewoon genieten dus!&lt;img title="PICT0240 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="200" alt="PICT0240 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-48CzACb0yms/TzPz_Ii3CJI/AAAAAAAAHqw/PWTFiy1wMFs/PICT0240%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="260" border="0"&gt;Vanavond staat er weer een driehoek op de menulijst! Nu een ingewikkelde dus die krijg ik vandaag niet meer af! Of misschien even voor een makkelijke gaan vandaag? En morgen de moeilijke? Is ook een optie!&lt;img title="08-02-2012 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="200" alt="08-02-2012 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-M_PzlwcLKWc/TzPz_2P0iOI/AAAAAAAAHq8/mU0cGfzWx2A/08-02-2012%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="260" border="0"&gt;Deze twee driehoeken heb ik gisteren gemaakt. De rechtse was in het boek helemaal geappliqueerd, maar de orginele foto liet zien dat die gepieced was, dus ikke ook he! Maar ja, dat betekent wel even tekenen in EQ7! Maar het is gelukt en was zo veel makkelijker in elkaar te zetten! Daarmee komen mijn nog te maken driehoeken op 39 en 3 hoekblokken, dus 42 in totaal! Dus eigenlijk nog drie hele randen en 3 hoekblokken te gaan. Ik heb nl. in elke rand al 1 blok klaar! Hopelijk lukt het me om morgen alle driehoeken van de bovenste rand af te hebben (=3) en dan dit weekend die rand aan elkaar te zetten! O ja, dan moeten er daarna weer nieuwe driehoeken geknipt worden! Als ik echt 1 maart klaar wil zijn moet ik er minimaal 5 in 2 dagen maken! Maar er komt nu wat schot in! &lt;img title="0risky-inner-hexagons" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="207" alt="0risky-inner-hexagons" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-Oq8zdrFjnsE/TzP0CPKg27I/AAAAAAAAHrI/obNZI_ytqxE/0risky-inner-hexagons_thumb%25255B2%25255D.gif?imgmax=800" width="204" border="0"&gt;Dus blijkbaar helpt het wel dat mijn vriendinnen me zo aanmoedigen! &lt;a href="http://robich.blogspot.com/"&gt;Rosa&lt;/a&gt; heeft zelfs haar blog in het teken gezet van de aanmoediging! Kijk maar naar haar titel op het tabblad (bovenaan in je browser). En wat te denken van haar header? Die cirkel heeft 42 driehoeken! Ik denk dat ze er nu elke dag 1-2 (wat ik gemaakt heb) op afstreept! De &lt;b&gt;Wall of Encouragement&lt;/b&gt;! Echt lachen soms die meid!&lt;br&gt;Fijne dag verder met lekker wat steekjes! Het is er weer voor!&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-RZTBswnoUAw/TzP0DIiGrdI/AAAAAAAAHrQ/RhwV_C2b4To/s1600-h/sign%25255B1%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="sign" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="114" alt="sign" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-709TF7Ct7Ls/TzP0EfKumFI/AAAAAAAAHrc/qhua84zFBlE/sign_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;&lt;i&gt;Today it was time again for a visit to the hospital for a refill of my insulin pump. I didn’t feel all to well lately, because of very high bloodsugar levels, so they checked and rechecked to see if there was something wrong with the pump. It appeared all to be just fine. So that is a good thing. Not that my bloodsugar levels are lower now, but anyhow! I didn’t need to stay for a larger check up! I can do some tests at home and if it stays this way, I will go back earlier as planned and have the whole pump cleaned out, timeconsuming task I can say! But it is worth the result as you don’t feel happy with high sugarlevels in your blood! As long as we can find the reason for those levels it is fine (not so now).&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;So after coming home I went to the parc with Floppy! It is something I love doing. Having the wind blow through my hair and head and clear all the worries out! Especially playing with her is FUN! She just loves to roll through the snow and play with her board. She loves to catch it if she can when I throw it far away! So that is really relaxing your mind! I can watch her for hours if she plays like this!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;This evening we have another tri on the menu. It is a complex one, or shall I go for an easier one so I can finish it too? I like to finish all the tri’s of the top row this week and sew them together into a border over the weekend.&amp;nbsp; I managed to get two more tri’s done yesterday, all thou I had to redraft one. In the book it was all applique and the picture of the original showed a pieced part, so I thought I could do that easier! Well, it did give a little more work as I needed to recut several parts, but it looks nice (right one in the pic). So far I still have to make 39 tri’s and 3 corners till the end. That means 3 whole borders and 3 kites. I made in every border already one tri! If&amp;nbsp; I really want to finish on March 1st. I have to make 5 tri’s in 2 days….&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;It seams to help how my friends keep cheering me on along the road! &lt;a href="http://robich.blogspot.com/"&gt;Rosa&lt;/a&gt; even changed her header into the circular picture above, that has 42 triangels! I guess she crosses one off from today on when I finish one or two! It is a real Wall of Encouragement isn’t it?! I love it! You really can have a good laugh with this girl!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;i&gt;Well, have a good day and maybe some stitching as well. I am off to see to it now!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-7624554855790231649?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/7624554855790231649/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=7624554855790231649' title='0 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/7624554855790231649'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/7624554855790231649'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2012/02/wall-of-encouragement-over-rosas-blog.html' title='Wall of Encouragement over @ Rosa’s blog'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh6.ggpht.com/-zhq7V0TK1eY/TzP2DMPeJ6I/AAAAAAAAHrs/zqumLEFECd4/s72-c/image_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-6697312555531363357</id><published>2012-02-08T07:47:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-10T13:24:48.844+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Jane'/><title type='text'>Day with a smile/ Dag met een lach</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-JrYI5Z-DuN0/TzIaUB2QQAI/AAAAAAAAHoc/8b4eMXec9BI/s1600-h/07022012%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="07022012 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="200" alt="07022012 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-i3ute8kXaS4/TzIaUxlWGhI/AAAAAAAAHog/S5vuWqqfeok/07022012%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="260" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Ja, ja, het is gelukt! Weer een driehoek af! Deze keer heeft &lt;a href="http://robich.blogspot.com/2012/02/just-for-you-marianna.html"&gt;Rosa&lt;/a&gt; mij sterk gestimuleerd om hem alsnog af te krijgen, nadat ik er al een dag aan had genaaid. Maar hij was best wel moeilijk en veel stukjes, dus dat doe je dan niet zo even! Maar Rosa zou Rosa niet zijn, als ze er niet een grappige draai aan zou geven! Dus ze beloofde me gisteren dat, áls ik hem nog af kreeg die avond ze een leuke verrassing voor me had. Nou dat was het! Kijk zelf maar:&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-bLxiS3u3T74/TzIaVVgMD1I/AAAAAAAAHoo/UoLlZiCGHSI/s1600-h/triangle%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="triangle" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="260" alt="triangle" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-yhMRLgop8Pw/TzIaWqHMkhI/AAAAAAAAHo0/P5oiv0fbTdw/triangle_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="198" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;En dat vind je dan ‘s morgens op haar blog! Nou, dan begint mijn dag goed hoor! Het is duidelijk een dag met een lach! Vandaag maar eens proberen om een beetje in te halen en misschien er twee in elkaar te zetten! Past goed bij een rustdag, die ik&amp;nbsp; heb ingelast na de drukke week van vorige week! &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Fijne dag verder en ga lekker ook wat steekjes nog zetten!&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-4KqyBhUbPXs/TzIaX5sEQxI/AAAAAAAAHo4/GukdZj-cRTI/s1600-h/sign%25255B1%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="sign" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="114" alt="sign" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-A2S7OBSikE0/TzIacFMEeZI/AAAAAAAAHpE/h3DSvZA1ua8/sign_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Yes, I managed it! Made another triangle for my Dear Jane yesterday! This time &lt;a href="http://robich.blogspot.com/2012/02/just-for-you-marianna.html"&gt;Rosa&lt;/a&gt; helped me a lot with her way of encouragement! She “dangled a carrot in front of me” and said I could have a nice suprise, if I finished the tri up that evening.Well for once it really helped, as I was exhausted in the evening, but did get the tri done in the end! It was a difficult one this time with lots of pieces, so hard work. But Rosa wouldn’t be Rosa if she wouldn’t turn it into something funny! So the second pic is my Suprise! And I found it on her blog this morning. It gave me a good smile and no better start of the day than one with a smile! Today I want to try to catch up a little and make maybe 2 tri’s. It is a nice thing to do on a resting day. I am still exhausted from last week with my birthday and the quiltshow, so I need to rest really well now! So I am off and will do some stitches today! Have a great day you all!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-6697312555531363357?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/6697312555531363357/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=6697312555531363357' title='2 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/6697312555531363357'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/6697312555531363357'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2012/02/day-with-smile-dag-met-een-lach.html' title='Day with a smile/ Dag met een lach'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh4.ggpht.com/-i3ute8kXaS4/TzIaUxlWGhI/AAAAAAAAHog/S5vuWqqfeok/s72-c/07022012%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-3704648490947739909</id><published>2012-02-07T13:06:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-10T13:24:48.845+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Jane'/><title type='text'>SUPRISE !!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-SmA-2BfJGwE/TzJoPsNylMI/AAAAAAAAHqM/uEnFVHvghRg/s1600-h/PICT0234%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B1%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0234 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="176" alt="PICT0234 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-sv5Vk2CsOn4/TzETt6wM9II/AAAAAAAAHqQ/MKaZrG7NGA8/PICT0234%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="208" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-XPCeK9e645s/TzETuvUqWlI/AAAAAAAAHqU/TdhIJHC4Zu0/s1600-h/PICT0236%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B1%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0236 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="177" alt="PICT0236 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-IeIwDs7avIk/TzETu4nLGtI/AAAAAAAAHqY/ovry9WzknU8/PICT0236%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="214" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Zojuist ging de bel en de postbode had een pakje voor me. Nu weet ik dat er nog iets onderweg is vanuit Schotland voor mijn verjaardag, dus ik dacht dat dit het was! Maar wat scherts mijn verbazing? Het kwam uit de USA van Brenda Papadakis, de schrijfster van het boek Dear Jane. Jarenlang ben ik degene geweest die wekelijks een email met een driehoek op de lijst plaatste, als aanmoediging voor de leden om ook de driehoeken te maken. Velen gaven na mijn vertrek begin Januari aan dat ze deze driehoeken niet hadden gemaakt zonder mijn aanmoedigingsmail elke week. Tja, dat doet een mens dan erg goed gewoon. Fijn dat er mensen waren die er echt iets aan hadden. Niks bijzonders verder. Maar mijn vertrek was niet gepland en ging wat onplezierig, maar ja, zand erover en je gaat verder, ook niks bijzonders. Maar Brenda vond het blijkbaar toch vervelend gegaan en als blijk van haar waardering heeft ze me deze FQ bundel van haar tweede stoffenlijn Dear Jane II gestuurd! Nou, daar kan ik wel wat mee! Nu toch eerst zelf die driehoeken eens naaien! Voor mij heeft die aanmoedigings lijst duidelijk nooit zoveel uitgemaakt!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Fijne dag verder en maken jullie ook nog wat steekjes? Ik wel!&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-K1yWdID40Js/TzETvqJO4mI/AAAAAAAAHmI/7LDd_mNX7Oo/s1600-h/sign%25255B2%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="sign" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="114" alt="sign" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-UUcLligmti0/TzETwYwS_wI/AAAAAAAAHmQ/4-SDHKgeSj8/sign_thumb%25255B2%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Just now the doorbell rang and the postman brought me a little package. I do know there is something little on the way from Scotland, so I thought that would be it. But I was suprised to see the sender: Brenda Papadakis, the writer of the Dear Jane book! Ok, she had asked for my snailmail addy several weeks ago, but I never thought I would receive anything. For years I had been the Triangle Of the Week mistress and published an email with a new tri to make on the Dear Jane list. Last January she suddenly assigned some one else to do the job, without understanding there was already some one doing this. So it wasn’t an all that pleasant goodbye for me. But several people emailed me later that they had appreciated the TOW list every week, as they wouldn’t have known how to keep on doing these triangles otherwise. So that is nice to hear and for me that was enough. As that was the purpose of that list! So apperently I hadn’t done a to bad job. But somehow Brenda thought this wasn’t well handled and as a token of her appreciation she has sent me this FQ bundle of her second Dear Jane fabric line! I really am very pleased with it! And I do know what to do with these! Guess I will use some of them for my tri’s, as I really need to stitch my own. The TOW list wasn’t a help for me to do that job (making those tri’s), even if I managed it myself! So I am a happy camper today, looking at those gorgeous fabrics! Have a great day filled with some stitches!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-3704648490947739909?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/3704648490947739909/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=3704648490947739909' title='2 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/3704648490947739909'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/3704648490947739909'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2012/02/suprise.html' title='SUPRISE !!!!'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh5.ggpht.com/-sv5Vk2CsOn4/TzETt6wM9II/AAAAAAAAHqQ/MKaZrG7NGA8/s72-c/PICT0234%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-2424866157498986537</id><published>2012-02-05T17:13:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-10T13:24:48.839+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Jane'/><title type='text'>Update Dear Jane</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-mZXOGmqkouY/Ty6qp_K1_9I/AAAAAAAAHg4/OzEBxF044Xo/s1600-h/nagging%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="nagging" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="228" alt="nagging" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-3ZMfyovuH64/Ty6qqWQieHI/AAAAAAAAHg8/pNJ10GJJ4UE/nagging_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="260" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Tja, zoals jullie weten hik ik nog steeds erg tegen de rand van mijn Jane aan! Nu heb ik de hulp ingeroepen van mijn Budettes, een vriendinnen groepje die veel contact hebben via internet. Ze hebben onderling bedacht (na mijn oproep of één van hun mij wilde stimuleren met het naaien van mijn driehoeken door af en toe een mailtje te sturen om te informeren of ik er al mee opschoot) mij elke twee dagen een berichtje te sturen! Dus krijg ik nu steeds een mail met de vraag of ik nu al van mijn stoel af ben gekomen om toch eindelijk eens zo’n driehoek te gaan maken! Af en toe opgeleukt met zo’n plaatje als hierboven! Nu moet ik zeggen dat het wel helpt!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Hier is het bewijs (ja, ik moet wel bewijzen dat dat zeuren ook echt helpt!)! De eerste foto zijn de driehoeken die ik afgelopen weekend gemaakt had en voor gesneden klaar gelegd in zakjes. De tweede foto is nog een driehoek die ik begin deze week nog heb kunnen maken. De derde zijn de driehoeken die al klaar liggen om genaaid te worden en daar begin ik vanavond aan na het eten!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-raeI4eXEQmE/Ty6qq5uzPXI/AAAAAAAAHjI/SPJDzLpZIXs/s1600-h/PICT0225%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B8%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0225 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="112" alt="PICT0225 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-yxn_DafZ7ro/Ty6qrdgdHZI/AAAAAAAAHjM/GnX-G4KZf6s/PICT0225%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="142" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-HLmyumkAPj8/Ty6qr25_4aI/AAAAAAAAHjQ/nnugXEqPxPw/s1600-h/PICT0224%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B7%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0224 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="113" alt="PICT0224 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-zYo944gW6-Q/Ty6qsuWSHMI/AAAAAAAAHjU/pzYLNTDW5i0/PICT0224%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="145" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-pwYJR6ZmEmw/Ty6qtUwfYBI/AAAAAAAAHjY/am7cqKAiFSM/s1600-h/PICT0222%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B7%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0222 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="113" alt="PICT0222 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-wkd2E_iLV7U/Ty6qtn5C9nI/AAAAAAAAHjc/N-47Zmy_mwQ/PICT0222%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="145" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Zie je het helpt echt!

So I have asked my Buddettes group of ladies, who are all friends through internet, to help me and encourage me by sending me once in a while an email asking for my progress. Well, they take that very seriously and have devided the week among each other, so every 2 days I get an email from one of them or even two, how i am doing with my tri’s! Someone even adds these cute pictures! But this naggoing really help me out! You can see my progress in the pictures! The 1st. picture is from last weekend when i finished 2 tri’s and prepped the rest of the whole top row. Early this week I also managed to make one more tri, but after my b’day I really had to rest to be fit for the quiltshow last saturday! But tomorrow I have no more excuse and need to start stitching again! Better start right away before I get another of those pics! Bye!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-2424866157498986537?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/2424866157498986537/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=2424866157498986537' title='5 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/2424866157498986537'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/2424866157498986537'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2012/02/update-dear-jane.html' title='Update Dear Jane'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh6.ggpht.com/-3ZMfyovuH64/Ty6qqWQieHI/AAAAAAAAHg8/pNJ10GJJ4UE/s72-c/nagging_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-2588067054781036401</id><published>2012-02-04T16:53:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-05T16:56:57.804+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Algemeen'/><title type='text'>Quiltshow in Vijfhuizen</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Na afgelasting gisteren i.v.m. de sneeuw, toch naar Vijfhuizen gegaan! Ik vond het een hele leuke quiltshow, met vooral fijne, leuke winkeltjes! Wat ik vooral zo leuk vind, is dat er veel meer kleinere winkeltjes staan, die een knusse, gezellige sfeer uitstralen. We begonnen gelijk goed: bij Jookies! Ik had me voorgenomen nu eerst naar dat winkeltje op zoek te gaan, voordat ik ergens anders iets zou kopen. Normaal zie ik Jookies pas op het einde en dan is vaak mijn geld al op gegaan aan andere dingetjes en ik vind de spulletjes van Jookies zo leuk! Dus met wat stukjes band, klosjes en wasknijpers en een kado kaart ben ik verder getogen!&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-xNJ5G7LZu9c/Ty6lFSa8v-I/AAAAAAAAHf4/RdLAzZxOhqc/s1600-h/PICT0230%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0230 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="152" alt="PICT0230 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-LFgucJ0kDRI/Ty6lGBh86HI/AAAAAAAAHf8/4j6XQZ_Bstk/PICT0230%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="196" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;En toen kwam ik voor het eerst op een beurs de internet winkel Gelrebloem tegen. Via internet kende ik ze al, maar nooit op een beurs gezien! Nu dus wel en gelijk eindelijk het patroontje van Madeline op de kop getikt! Ik had al de 2 charm packs van Rouennier Deux, dus ‘s avonds gelijk alles alvast geknipt!&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-l1gkB5AODMs/Ty6lGR0JO1I/AAAAAAAAHgI/DLbibCOIw9c/s1600-h/PICT0227%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0227 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="152" alt="PICT0227 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-BLu2MXiqxa0/Ty6lHT-B_3I/AAAAAAAAHgM/gH9-HVHspEk/PICT0227%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="196" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Bij het Hoobyhoekje bleken ze zelfs FQ voor 2,50 te verkopen en laat het nu net de stof zijn die ik zocht voor de huisjes! Daiwabo prints! Ook geweven, maar die heb ik nog wel! Dus ik helemaal blij dat ik ook nog stofjes had gevonden voor een leuke prijs! Dus ik heb weer wat variatie in de huisjes!&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-nmrF1hsWU8A/Ty6lIJNzwrI/AAAAAAAAHgY/kwFTuaHli8s/s1600-h/PICT0226%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B6%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0226 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="150" alt="PICT0226 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-K2ksTrwkk1M/Ty6lIwOiktI/AAAAAAAAHgc/JALJTOjvZLU/PICT0226%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B4%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="193" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; En last, but not least, kwam ik nog het Quilters Palet tegen uit Den Haag en die hadden leuke pakketjes scraps. Dus ja, welke kleur: nou rood natuurlijk, want ook die kleine lapjes zijn goed voor de Nearly Insane! En anders verdwijnen ze wel in de vingerhoedjes quilt! Ik heb nl. ook bij Petra een perplex malletje gevonden voor de vingerhoedjes, zelfs met gaatjes, als je met de hand wilt naaien!&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-6NYWd2HnUEw/Ty6lJU0p2sI/AAAAAAAAHgk/ur9u2_tyKho/s1600-h/PICT0231%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0231 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="152" alt="PICT0231 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-fh79vTUasHc/Ty6lKCA-MiI/AAAAAAAAHgs/MFTbKH11WVo/PICT0231%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="196" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Ik ben helemaal blij met mijn buit! Maar heb ik me niet netjes ingehouden? Ik zag nog duizend dingen meer, vooral lapjes, die ik mooi vond, maar ja, die heb ik nog wel! En de liniaal die ik zocht (Omnigrid 96) vond ik wel erg prijzig voor 16,50! En ik was er ook niet zeker van, dat ik niet zoiets al had! Morgen toch eens in mijn kasten duiken! Maar het was een vermoeiende, maar super leuke dag!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Well, the picture say it all! No real translation needed! I talked a bit from which shops I bought what and that is not interesting for foreigners! But is was a small cute show with a friendly atmosphere! In the evening I already cut the pattern Madeline I had bought on the show, so I can start sewing the blocks soon! The charm packs I bought for my b’day for this quilt, so I could start right away! It was an exhausting, but rewarding day!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-2588067054781036401?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/2588067054781036401/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=2588067054781036401' title='1 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/2588067054781036401'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/2588067054781036401'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2012/02/quiltshow-jane.html' title='Quiltshow in Vijfhuizen'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh3.ggpht.com/-LFgucJ0kDRI/Ty6lGBh86HI/AAAAAAAAHf8/4j6XQZ_Bstk/s72-c/PICT0230%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-3928049850398703502</id><published>2012-02-03T21:06:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-10T13:24:48.853+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Floppy/Flopke'/><title type='text'>Winterfun/Winterpret</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Ondanks dat de sneeuw in het verkeer veel chaos veroorzaakte en ongelukken, was het ook super leuk om doorheen te baggeren voor je plezier! Dus vanmiddag met die “kleine” (van bijna 3) lekker ons wezen uitleven in het park!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Despite the fact that the snow caused a lot of chaos in traffic and accidents it was super fun to go out and play in the snow! So this afternoon I went with our “little one” (almost three now) to the parc and had lots of fun together!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ons park bij het meer/ Our Parc near the lake:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0153 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="161" alt="PICT0153 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-zJeR3qDoXiw/Tyw-KWEfCHI/AAAAAAAAHbg/xUMHScqn5yY/PICT0153%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="208" border="0"&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-WOymqZXcHmI/Tyw-K5o-cHI/AAAAAAAAHbk/KoEwcMvUJSI/s1600-h/PICT0152%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0152 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="161" alt="PICT0152 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-C2HKotaru9o/Tyw-L1VZTsI/AAAAAAAAHbo/98hllG3SmN0/PICT0152%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="208" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;De bosjes staan bijna aan de rand van het water, nu ijs bedekt met sneeuw.

Ik ben nl. jarig! En ja, als sinds ik kind was vond ik het super leuk om jarig te zijn en dat is eigenlijk nooit weg gegaan! Ik kan ook echt als een kind zo blij zijn met kadootjes, groot én klein. Vandaag mag ik dan ook de vloppen uitpakken van de verjaardags lijst van één van mijn internet quilt groepen, dus lapjes! &lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-ObiZAJ5Su_0/TygOtL2U-GI/AAAAAAAAHT8/lY-_5gmk59E/s1600-h/image%25255B3%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="image" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="200" alt="image" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-AXcACEsJLs0/TygOvI-uV7I/AAAAAAAAHUE/vZlZiJPD0Wg/image_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="260" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;En wat is er nu leuker uitpakken als lapjes! Ook boeken zijn errug leuk en ik ben dan ook al goed verwend geworden door manlief! Leuk stapeltje leesvoer heb ik weer he!&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-xUzLhRqiuBA/TygOv4wVvKI/AAAAAAAAHUI/OnT22cdFZGw/s1600-h/PICT0019%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0019 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="200" alt="PICT0019 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-2GNMbXR-wG8/TygOwfzAwjI/AAAAAAAAHUU/MHbXipbGqIk/PICT0019%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="260" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Maar dat is zeker niet het enigste! Ik heb mezelf ook verwend met wat lapjes om een nieuwe quilt te maken voor onze straks-opgeknapte-huiskamer en de Little Twister snijmal en ik viel voor de nieuwe Rouennier Deux:&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-AxN6TSoK74Q/TygOxs8cfSI/AAAAAAAAHUc/vuiYwBpvat4/s1600-h/PICT0017%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0017 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="200" alt="PICT0017 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-r4cthrFVJa8/TygOyd57ysI/AAAAAAAAHUg/T5YrSRUjA4k/PICT0017%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="260" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;En verder ben “gewoon” verwend door wat vriendinnen! Deze heb ik van &lt;a href="http://cynsquiltedtravels.blogspot.com/"&gt;HAAR&lt;/a&gt;. Daiwabo lapjes voor de huisjes, een echt scherp klein schaartje (revlon babyschaartje) waar je zelfs mee mag reizen door de stompe punt! En heel lief heeft ze van de show Road2California een keycord mee genomen, dus daar hangt nu het nieuwe schaartje alvast aan! En ze heeft nog een heel leuk hartje gehaakt als onderzetter! Dank je wel Cyn! Ik ben er erg blij mee!&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-ZZ8yELjEBSw/TygOzIZBEUI/AAAAAAAAHUs/Y9xbRuHSP-8/s1600-h/PICT0026%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0026 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="200" alt="PICT0026 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-xbY1noYL9r8/TygO0RFSS0I/AAAAAAAAHUw/Xp2Terrx2qY/PICT0026%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="260" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Van een andere quiltkennis uit België, die met Cyn en nog een paar andere dames op reis was en ook de Road2 California show heeft bezocht, heb ik deze leuke tas en autralisch lapje gekregen. Heel handig als je even een tasje extra nodig hebt, dus die gaat mee naar de Expo in Vijhuizen vrijdag!

Wow wat is ie mooi he! Je hoeft niet te vragen wat voor hobby ik heb! O ja, de paspop kun je ook nog echt als speldenkussen gebruiken!

I am celebrating my birthday today (yes with cake this morning, Buddettes). As a child I could really enjoy looking forward to my birthday and that childish feeling of upcoming Party-time has always stayed with me! Being excited of unwrapping presents, small or big, is what has stayed with me all these years! Today I also can unwrap enveloppes with soft fabric gifties of quilting friends from one of my lists. And what is more fun than unwrapping fabrics? Ok, unwrapping books is also a good one! Hubby spoiled me with the best of the best books I love and I spoiled myself with fabrics to make a new quilt for the remodeled livingroom in a few months and 2 charm packs of rouennier deux and the little twister tool! Love it! And it just came only one day before my birthday! &lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;i&gt;Besides that I also am not forgotten by my friends! Got a Inklingo file from &lt;a href="http://frummiesworld.blogspot.com/"&gt;HER&lt;/a&gt; (not visable though)(Thanks a lot Frummie) and from &lt;a href="http://cynsquiltedtravels.blogspot.com/"&gt;HER&lt;/a&gt; I received lovely gifties in the mail! These are revlon stump point scissors that stay sharp and are small, some daiwabo fabrics form my scrap houses project and a crochet coaster for my mug! Lovely work you did Cyn! I loved it all! Thank you so much! From another quilting friend I received lovely batik kind fabric with autralian flowers on it and a totebag, so that is a nice extra bag to bring with me to the expo I will go to friday!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;i&gt;And last, but certainly not least, I received a hand make card from &lt;a href="http://ellensscrappalace.blogspot.com/"&gt;my sister Ellen&lt;/a&gt; and the cute thing is: the fitting-doll is also a puncushion! Thanks El, I truely LOVE it! And this morning I got a lovely b’day card, also hand made form my mom! I love that one too! So cute! Oh yes, I have unwrapped the enveloppes and the fabrics inside are shown in the picture.The pile had doubled since the first picture! Thanks girls I love them all! And a special THANKS to Maud from Hergarden Embroidery, who made me the cute bag, a real PIP bag (popular dutch designer). I love the colours and style, so really me too! I will bring it also with me to the expo in Vijfhuizen later this week. Having sushi for dinner with hubby and a friend. I feel so really celebrating and am spoiled to pieces! Have a nice day all of you, I will certainly continue!&amp;nbsp; See you all later!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-4839763172161534959?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/4839763172161534959/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=4839763172161534959' title='11 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/4839763172161534959'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/4839763172161534959'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2012/02/feest.html' title='Feest'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh3.ggpht.com/-AXcACEsJLs0/TygOvI-uV7I/AAAAAAAAHUE/vZlZiJPD0Wg/s72-c/image_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>11</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-2825684116410851379</id><published>2012-02-01T13:16:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-10T13:24:48.840+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Crazy Quilted Valentijn Hart</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-yENRGURFs9s/TyfybBxE1kI/AAAAAAAAHSk/5ID_OstaXbw/s1600-h/PICT0013Small7.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img alt="PICT0013 (Small)" border="0" height="258" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-EqpsWKVnRyw/Tyfyb9uN2hI/AAAAAAAAHSo/zc3WDlNxYJM/PICT0013Small_thumb5.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="PICT0013 (Small)" width="325" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Ik vind het erg leuk om uitleggen te schrijven en mag dan ook weer publiceren op het blog van Madamme Samm, &lt;a href="http://www.sewwequilt.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Sew We Quilt.&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp; Het onderwerp van deze maand op dat blog is rood/wit en omdat in Februari het Valentijns dag is, heb ik dit gecombineerd. Dus dit keer gaat het over het maken van een makkelijk Valentijns hart. Ik heb hetzelfde onderwerp genomen als wat ik ook deze maand voor mijn BOM Verleidelijke Vormen heb gekozen, die ik publiceer op mijn QDD blog en ons Simply2M blog. Ik hoop dat een paar van jullie hem gaan maken! En natuurlijk zou ik graag foto's zien! Dus ga naar mijn QDD blog of het Simply2M blog (knoppen beneden aan dit blog rechts) voor het patroon en uitleg. Het zit dit keer in 1 document, dus makkelijk te downloaden. Of ga naar Madamme Samm's blog, want misschien staat het er vandaag al op! Veel plezier ermee! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;I really love to write up tutorials for you all! And I am pleased I was invited again to publish on Madamme Samm's blog &lt;/i&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sewwequilt.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Sew We Quilt.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;i&gt; I hope you like what I made this time: a crazy quilted Valentines heart, the easy peasy way! &lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;The subject for February is Red and White and I love Valentines Day. So this was a good combination for me! I used the same subject as I choosed for my BOM 2012 Tempting Shapes, I publish on my QDD blog and our Simply2M blog, so if you like something nice without spending to much time for a mother, daughter of beloved friend, than this might be the one! It is easy and fast to do. I made one in only an afternoon, binding and all! I hope you will hop over to one of my blogs or to Madamme Samm's. It might be there today!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;The pattern description and the heart pattern are in one document and you can find it on my QDD blog or our Simply2M blog. Button of these blogs are in the right sidebar, totally down, of this blog. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;I still love to see a picture of your work!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Have fun! &lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-Bv2RpRP40qg/TyfycaDwHtI/AAAAAAAAHSw/2YOEQtk7fO0/s1600-h/2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE3.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE" border="0" height="77" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-KNk2q381zzs/Tyfyc3qduGI/AAAAAAAAHS4/QTTM50jn8rg/2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE_thu.png?imgmax=800" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; display: inline;" title="2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE" width="133" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-2825684116410851379?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/2825684116410851379/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=2825684116410851379' title='0 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/2825684116410851379'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/2825684116410851379'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2012/02/crazy-quilted-valentijn-hart.html' title='Crazy Quilted Valentijn Hart'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh4.ggpht.com/-EqpsWKVnRyw/Tyfyb9uN2hI/AAAAAAAAHSo/zc3WDlNxYJM/s72-c/PICT0013Small_thumb5.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-1256373910921569770</id><published>2012-01-26T10:19:00.006+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-10T13:24:48.856+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='CS Dear Jane'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='H and H BOM'/><title type='text'>Borduurwerk</title><content type='html'>Ja, één is er af en dus mag ik een nieuw project starten qua kruissteek borduren.

Lijkt  me makkelijk én leuk! Bijna al mijn Budettes doen mee, dus we zijn met  een leuk groepje die elkaars vorderingen online bewonderen. Dat houdt  misschien de vaart erin. Ik wilde eens iets heel anders doen! Maar Jane  gaat wel voor hoor! Maar die maken de anderen ook en Rosa heeft er  eentje al af en is een tweede begonnen! &lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-1mF5W_4wSSA/TyEulFQ6FsI/AAAAAAAAHQk/iwwE8kElPbE/s1600-h/PICT0022%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B5%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img alt="PICT0022 (Small)" border="0" height="125" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-ldwJ3F8ThIU/TyEulhVr-UI/AAAAAAAAHQo/1SM7HdVhRIk/PICT0022%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline;" title="PICT0022 (Small)" width="160" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ik ga weer wat steekjes prikken en een driehoekje knippen! &lt;br /&gt;Fijne dag verder!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-DZgxdiAOjJg/TyElZO-zq9I/AAAAAAAAHNQ/M-epacNstpg/s1600-h/sign%25255B1%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="sign" border="0" height="114" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-pBzWFgOKqpg/TyElZ7Wf1nI/AAAAAAAAHNY/F1-LwCrPLKM/sign_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; display: inline;" title="sign" width="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Yes, one project is finished so I allowed myself to start a new cross stitch design. Besides the Vierlanden Altengamme Sampler I selected the sampler VI, or Dear Jane I, designed by &lt;a href="http://www.lindamyers.com/index.html"&gt;Linda Myers&lt;/a&gt;. I really am a fan of her designs! Like&amp;nbsp; I am a Vierlanden fan too! Maybe I can even finish this cross stitch sampler together with my Dear Jane quilt. I have started sewing the triangles of the borders now and finished two extra. I deleted 6 so I am still not on track, but today I will have time to sit down and sticth a little and prep a new tri as well! My head is calming down now all the preparations for the new deco of the house are finished, so I can use my energy for crafty stuff! So I decided I would join my Budettes and make the Harrington &amp;amp; Hannah BOM. It is a cute rabbits BOM made with wool applique. I think it is not to difficult and I like to try something new as well. We will show online our work to each other and I think it might keep me on track for this one! But first things first, so Jane is still leading! The other Budettes are making Jane too, so it ain’t new to them! Rosa even finished one already and is working on a second!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;I am off to stitch a little! Have a great day!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-1256373910921569770?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/1256373910921569770/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=1256373910921569770' title='2 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/1256373910921569770'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/1256373910921569770'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2012/01/borduurwerk.html' title='Borduurwerk'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh4.ggpht.com/-dS99kPOAmA0/TyElYjWsMgI/AAAAAAAAHNI/vF0QEqmhTwg/s72-c/jane%252520stickle%2525206_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-7921551989509797084</id><published>2012-01-23T11:10:00.006+01:00</published><updated>2012-01-26T11:39:45.949+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Algemeen'/><title type='text'>Deco stuff</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-CiRZQxPihpI/TyEp7Ci9LkI/AAAAAAAAHPU/qCmxYyO-ck0/s1600-h/PICT0001%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B5%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img alt="PICT0001 (Small)" border="0" height="153" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-0-VlPFrTvao/TyEp7kN9v4I/AAAAAAAAHPY/H2twjfwM2ho/PICT0001%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-color: -moz-use-text-color;

We zijn goed geslaagd, ook al zie je altijd nog meer en leuker zelfs soms. Maar ja gekocht is gekocht en terug brengen doen we niet. We blijven niet rijden is dan het motto! Maar ik ben heel tevreden over het behang met de assecoires samen. Wel verschillende tinten paars, want echt alleen maar roodachtig paars dan krijg je een saai geheel en er is niet veel in te koop! Maar als het er was, viel daar wel de keuze op! &lt;br /&gt;Ik ga nog even verder dromen!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-Ib8cAM6wf1Y/TyEqCV7Ve9I/AAAAAAAAHPE/Y2QCNhOOwFk/s1600-h/sign%25255B1%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="sign" border="0" height="114" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-m4I8JOZ9ETs/TyEqDL9yAHI/AAAAAAAAHPI/PlK9h7WiZQU/sign_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800" style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline;" title="sign" width="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Yes, last weekend we went shopping for the new deco stuff for our livingroom that will be re decorated in May/June. Now my head can rest and I can relax! We have managed to buy lovely stuff even if you see later nicer stuff. There is a Ford and a Mercedes and they both drive! Bought is bought and no returning to shops to change sutff! We don’t keep riding back and forth hubby says! But I am very pleased with the result of the wall paper and deco stuff. Different shades of purple, because only redish purple (aubergine/eggplant) can be boring and there wasn’t a lot to buy in that colour. But if it was the exact colour we bought it! Now all we need to do is a new layer of thin paint on the gras buckets and it looks lovely with contrast!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;I will go dreaming a bit more!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-7921551989509797084?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/7921551989509797084/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=7921551989509797084' title='0 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/7921551989509797084'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/7921551989509797084'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2012/01/deco-stuff.html' title='Deco stuff'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh5.ggpht.com/-0-VlPFrTvao/TyEp7kN9v4I/AAAAAAAAHPY/H2twjfwM2ho/s72-c/PICT0001%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-4138587397800747682</id><published>2012-01-20T16:30:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2012-01-20T16:39:59.444+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Algemeen'/><title type='text'>Facelift &amp; Windlights</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Tja, dat is het toch best wel! Dit blog had een facelift nodig. Ik vond het zo vol komen te staan met best wel leuke dingen, maar te rommelig naar mijn smaak. Dus heb ik een hoop verwijderd en meer een relaxende sfeer proberen te creëeren, net als we hier thuis gaan doen van het voorjaar/zomer. Daarom ook deze kleurkeuze, want hier lijkt straks onze kamer ook erg op! En omdat ik Carin’s blog altijd zo prettig vind lezen en overzichtelijk vind blijven, heb ik dus de layout een beetje van haar afgekeken maar er wel echt mijn dingetjes mee gedaan natuurlijk. Ik hoop dat jullie het een verbetering vinden! Ik mistte vooral iets echt persoonlijks en door die dingen wat meer toe te voegen voelt het nu wel meer als IK!&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-Hl15QwWM4SI/TxmIkq6LdvI/AAAAAAAAHKs/my1m7iLIaAo/s1600-h/article12343747%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="article12343747" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="260" alt="article12343747" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-j1jjRjsZs7s/TxmIlBd6reI/AAAAAAAAHK0/TVBS-nbgv4g/article12343747_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="200" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Gisterenavond, koopavond, nog even gauw de stad in geweest om wat te luchten en toen kwamen we al snuffelend deze windlichten tegen bij de Marskramer.&amp;nbsp; Ik denk dat die van ons wat groter zijn, maar we hebben ook erg grote ramen in de woonkamer, dus nu staat er voor elk raam 1! Straks lekker veel kaarsjes aan en het is al gelijk echt thuis! Ondanks dat de stress van alles uitzoeken, bestellen en uitdenken wel zijn tol eist (mijn lijf kan daar gewoon niet tegen en protesteert) is het wel erg leuk om te doen allemaal! Tja, positieve stress blijft stress! Dus morgen nog wat laatste decoratie spulletjes (die aubergine kleur vindt je echt niet midden in de zomer) en dan krijgt mijn koppie weer wat rust. Misschien dat er dan ook nog eens wat uit mijn handen komt, want nu is het vooral lezen en rusten!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Nog een fijne dag verder! Groetjes!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-pTb79JyDULs/TxmIl8GdchI/AAAAAAAAHK8/B6x7F4qfRRU/s1600-h/sign%25255B2%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="sign" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="114" alt="sign" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-8ZWa-TQYRpw/TxmImnz9fyI/AAAAAAAAHLE/--F-4QQgqcI/sign_thumb%25255B2%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Well, yes it is! My blog really needed a facelift as I wasn’t content with it for a long time. To much clutter, although cute clutter, but still clutter and I despite clutter! So I got inspiration from Carin’s blog and deleted a lot of gadgets and added a few more that reflect me more. I really missed ME in this! The colours I choosed this time are a mirror image of the designs I selected for decorating the living area later on in spring. I hope you like the changes!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Yesterday evening (shops are open here in Holland) we went quickly into town to get some fresh air and snooping around for new decorating stuff for the new room. We found these lovely big windlights and bought three of them for our 3 big windows. The central heating in underneath them so flowers or plants die up there. Candles are blown out by the wind of the airing system so these windlights seamed the solution! When it is all finished we can light some candles and enjoy our new home! Despite the stress of picking new stuff, ordering and thinking it all through, it is real fun to do this after 8 years! Yes positive stress is still stress! And my body doesn’t like that so much, so it will be nice when this stage is over and things are finished for now. Tomorrow we will shop some more decorating stuff (this eggplant colour is impossible to find in summertime) and after that my head can rest! Maybe I can finally start sewing some things by then&amp;nbsp; as nothing is coming out of my hands lately! Have a great day!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-4138587397800747682?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/4138587397800747682/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=4138587397800747682' title='15 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/4138587397800747682'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/4138587397800747682'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2012/01/facelift-windlights.html' title='Facelift &amp;amp; Windlights'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh4.ggpht.com/-j1jjRjsZs7s/TxmIlBd6reI/AAAAAAAAHK0/TVBS-nbgv4g/s72-c/article12343747_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>15</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-6203550698092109613</id><published>2012-01-19T16:19:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-10T13:25:28.448+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Good Books!</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.julietmarillier.com/books/daughteroftheforest.html"&gt;&lt;img title="image" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="260" alt="image" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-pVKeVsg9PvI/Txg0dmlJULI/AAAAAAAAHFY/DUAeYYAIYRo/image%25255B9%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="168" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Ja, het is heerlijk om een goed boek te lezen. Bovenstaand boek, “De dochter van Zeven Wateren” heb ik net uit en dus gelijk in de volgende van de serie begonnen!&amp;nbsp; &lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-Y5WJQI8kWfs/Txg0efaYIeI/AAAAAAAAHFc/xEJpdP0qUjQ/s1600-h/image%25255B19%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="image" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="260" alt="image" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-XV-Gpyisayc/Txg0e-3wf_I/AAAAAAAAHFk/o0ZUu40GZbM/image_thumb%25255B7%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="168" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Van hubby heb ik alvast een stel boeken voor mijn verjaardag gehad (moet nog even wachten tot de echte datum zich aan dient). Van elke serie die ik spaar het volgende boek dat ik nog niet had! Van één van mijn lievelings schrijfster waren er zelfs twee boeken die ik nog niet had! Dus mijn verlanglijstje vulde zich net zo snel als dat ik er wat afhaalde! Om nu het verhaal weer goed in mijn hoofd te hebben voor ik dit nieuwe boek ga lezen ben ik de hele serie aan het herlezen! Zalig! En zeer ontspannend! Echt een aanrader voor wie deze serie niet kent!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Fijne dag verder ik ga even een driehoekje voorbereiden! Kan ik nog wat steekjes zetten vanavond!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Groetjes,&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Marianna&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Yes it is great to read a good book and I love fantasy books! Hubby gave me a few good books for my birthday alreadyand they are all the next one in row of the series I collect. So now I am re-reading these older books, so I have the story in my head when I start on my new book! It is good to have a good book on hand and it really relaxes me! If you haven’t read this book (Daughter of the Forest by Julliet Marillier) I would recomment you do, if you like fantasy!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Have a great day and I am off to prep some DJ tri’s! Maybe I can add a few stitches in the evening!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-6203550698092109613?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/6203550698092109613/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=6203550698092109613' title='0 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/6203550698092109613'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/6203550698092109613'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2012/01/good-books.html' title='Good Books!'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh4.ggpht.com/-pVKeVsg9PvI/Txg0dmlJULI/AAAAAAAAHFY/DUAeYYAIYRo/s72-c/image%25255B9%25255D.png?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-7829564625351103536</id><published>2012-01-16T12:00:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-10T13:24:48.850+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Scrappy houses'/><title type='text'>Scrappy Houses</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-f6XEDPYxJ5I/TxQDKBwhHBI/AAAAAAAAHEk/Pej2QdmCdi8/s1600-h/scrappy%252520houses%25255B6%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="scrappy houses" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="240" alt="scrappy houses" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-PepM4Ewbqfk/TxQDK29CkEI/AAAAAAAAHEs/4MGgkSHBG9A/scrappy%252520houses_thumb%25255B6%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Ja, hier wordt wel gewerkt aan de huisjes, maar vooral aan de layout. Ik zag mezelf toch niet zo´n lap van een quilt maken en vond het ook gewoon niet mooi worden als het er zoveel zouden zijn. Dus heb ik het gehalveerd. Ik ga nu 10 rijen van 8 huisjes maken en het midden blok wordt maar 16.5 cm vierkant. En gelijk wat vergrijsde tinten gebruikt zodat het meer de japanse uitstraling krijgt die ik zocht! Nu nog de vraag wat ik als sashing ga doen. Grijs of toch lichter? Hier is het een vergrijsde roze tint, maar straks wordt de huiskamer vooral aubergine, dus ja zal dat staan? Of moet je dan toch meer naar de rood tinten gaan? Aubergine is immers een rood tint paars. Dilemma’s, dilemma’s! Ik heb nog tot het einde van de maand voor ik moet beslissen welke kleur het wordt voor de sashings en hoekblokjes! Zal ik nodig hebben!&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Toch ook nog wat aan mijn Sjaan gewerkt! Onderstaande driehoek heb ik afgelopen week nog gemaakt!&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-R-qQNtMG3_0/TxQDLZztaSI/AAAAAAAAHEw/4V1gNNSQEJo/s1600-h/TR3-1%25255B5%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="TR3-1" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="146" alt="TR3-1" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-jfhdJCHPD3g/TxQDL7h9gHI/AAAAAAAAHE4/lUvLd1iVzJM/TR3-1_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="188" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Fijne dag allemaal! Ik ga proberen wat blokjes en driehoeken te knippen vandaag! &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-j_u4kv2jz6E/TxQDMctg57I/AAAAAAAAHFA/C4SgkxwQEPg/s1600-h/2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE%25255B3%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="77" alt="2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-IE9FFsUskig/TxQDNOrUDvI/AAAAAAAAHFM/lg6u-zKGcFE/2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="133" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Yes, I am working hard on my house blocks, but more in layout style than actually sewing blocks. I didn’t see myself making 366 blocks for a year or so, so I decided I would cut down the amount of blocks. I will make 10 rows of 8 blocks now and the middle blocks will be 2 blocks wide and high instead of three. And I used some more grey toned colours in my quilt to show more the japanese style of fabrics I use. Now I need to answer the question what to do with the sashings? Grey or more lgiht like a grey toned pink? The livingroom will be more aubergine later in the year after remodeling and I like it to fit in. Or should I go to more red toned fabrics instead as aubergine is more a red toned purple? Dilemma’s Dilemma’s! I have till the end of this month to make up my mind what colour I like to the sashings and cornerstones! I will need it! Have a great day of sewing all. I will try and prep some house blocks and&amp;nbsp; Jane’s tri’s today!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-7829564625351103536?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/7829564625351103536/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=7829564625351103536' title='2 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/7829564625351103536'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/7829564625351103536'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2012/01/scrappy-houses.html' title='Scrappy Houses'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh6.ggpht.com/-PepM4Ewbqfk/TxQDK29CkEI/AAAAAAAAHEs/4MGgkSHBG9A/s72-c/scrappy%252520houses_thumb%25255B6%25255D.png?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-8630405116363433342</id><published>2012-01-10T16:29:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2012-01-10T16:29:02.448+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Borduren'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Algemeen'/><title type='text'>First finished Object 2012/ Eerste AFFO 2012</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-NBAZcEBqHWw/TwxZOsxc_uI/AAAAAAAAHEU/i8_ux1ivVuA/s1600-h/8-1-12b%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="8-1-12b (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="200" alt="8-1-12b (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-xTGXfjm0vIk/TwxZPf6rvLI/AAAAAAAAHEY/f3FRiU5oE0I/8-1-12b%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="260" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Ja het is een feit!

Ik ben zo blij, zowel met mijn affo als de nieuwe vloer! Zaterdag nog behang en rolgordijntjes bestellen en dan is het wachten tot manlief vakantie heeft! Gelukkig heeft ie ruim vakantie en kan hij ook weer uitrusten van deze klus, want dat blijft het wel!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Yes, it is a fact! My big cross stitch piece is finished. My very first cross stitch piece! I have to wash it and take all the help lines out of it (never put those in again, haven’t used them at all), but than I can bring it away to be framed! It will look gorgeous in the new living room this summer! Yes, we are going to redecorate out living room and hallway. Putting in a new floor and some new wallpaper and curtains. The floor we have pre ordered and satruday we will do that for the wallpaper. Thursday they already come to measure the floor exactly! Now all I need to do is arange some volunteers to help as we really can’t do this on our own anymore. But even for that we have special organisations here in Holland! After pre ordering all we have to do is wait till hubby is getting his vacation time to start! Glad he is having a long vacation so he can recuperate from this job as well!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-8630405116363433342?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/8630405116363433342/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=8630405116363433342' title='8 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/8630405116363433342'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/8630405116363433342'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2012/01/first-finished-object-2012-eerste-affo.html' title='First finished Object 2012/ Eerste AFFO 2012'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh5.ggpht.com/-xTGXfjm0vIk/TwxZPf6rvLI/AAAAAAAAHEY/f3FRiU5oE0I/s72-c/8-1-12b%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>8</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-1165484793645171869</id><published>2012-01-05T15:19:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-10T13:24:48.841+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='BOM'/><title type='text'>BOM 2012: Tempting Shapes part 1 / Verleidelijke Vormen deel 1</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-_tSstIo6vhk/Twm1k9FuHlI/AAAAAAAAHEE/VrMzMjBfsxk/s1600-h/BOM%252520TS-VV%25255B2%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="BOM TS-VV" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="244" alt="BOM TS-VV" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-Cmrj1mIqyAM/Twm1lDBBNqI/AAAAAAAAHEI/aIEQHmRQ4Mw/BOM%252520TS-VV_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="244" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Ok, het nieuwe jaar is weer van start en dus het begin van onze nieuwe BOM, de Verleidelijke Vormen! Als je dat wilt kun je de knop hierboven gebruiken als link naar deze BOM. Link hem dan aub aan ons Simply2M blog, waar de uitleg en patronen komen te staan. Helaas begon het jaar voor mij met storing op mijn internet verbinding, dus kon ik niet op tijd de Nederlandse vertaling online zetten. Maar ondertussen is het probleem verholpen en staat deze versie nu ook online op ons Simply2M blog. De engelse uitleg was wel al beschikbaar op het &lt;a href="http://simply2m.blogspot.com/"&gt;Simply2M blog&lt;/a&gt; en &lt;a href="http://qddshop.blogspot.com/"&gt;QDD&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Dit is het eerste onderwerp &lt;strong&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;Applecores&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. Ik ga uitleggen hoe je deze met de malletjes methode makkelijk aan elkaar kunt zetten en zelfs met de machine kunt maken! &lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-92GvDp8FgqQ/TwmmMmghgbI/AAAAAAAAHDs/LDiYcnAazBU/s1600-h/clip_image0624.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="clip_image062" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="180" alt="clip_image062" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/--__1XfzCaDQ/TwmmNBTvuYI/AAAAAAAAHDw/j8yXLwkY5Ok/clip_image062_thumb1.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;Ok, the New Year has started and it wasn’t a very good start for me! My internet connection failed me, so I wasn’t able to put the right tutorial online, but now I can do it again. The Dutch translation is now online aswell, for those who like that.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;But for my english speaking readers I had the tutorial and templates ready!

Ik hoop dat jullie dat ook willen doen in 2012! Het nieuwe jaar is weer stuk en overal zie je de eerste huisjes opduiken op de diverse blogs. Ook ik heb me er aan gewaagd en ben de week voor oud en nieuw begonnen met uit testen wat ik mooi vond worden. Dit is het resultaat:&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-1-7uvhkS3P0/TwVvLCB73ZI/AAAAAAAAG_4/H2fPc31-ou4/s1600-h/01%252520%25252830122011%252529%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="01 (30122011) (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="200" alt="01 (30122011) (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-eJBZFOKyt8Y/TwVvLnR4uAI/AAAAAAAAG_8/LtFMo0UKQ-4/01%252520%25252830122011%252529%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="260" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Tja, de mijne zijn wel scrappy maar wel binnen een bepaalde stofsfeer, de Japanse Taupe stofjes. Ik heb geen idee of ik ze alle 366 ga maken, misschien wel, maar dat zie ik wel in de loop van het jaar. Ik wil wel binnenkort stof voor de tussenbiesjes en hoekblokjes gaan kopen, zodat ik gelijk met het blokje ook die eraan kan zetten. Dat scheelt zo veel werk op het einde!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Het linker blokje hieronder is de stand van zaken op 1 januari 2012 en rechts is de stand van dit moment. Ik maak denk ik per week een aantal blokjes en soms zal ik dus ietsje voor lopen en soms ook wel eens achter. Gewoon omdat dat voor mij beter werkt, vooral voor die dagen dat het niet zo wil hier. Als het even lukt wil ik vandaag wat blokjes gaan knippen en vooral ook wat driehoeken voor mijn Sjaantje, want daar wordt het nu tijd voor!&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-VtTAcTvQYFg/TwVvMJN5pyI/AAAAAAAAHAE/VHUx_ovoQts/s1600-h/PICT0075%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B5%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0075 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="147" alt="PICT0075 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-0sjjWv-SXrU/TwVvMiV_V3I/AAAAAAAAHAQ/ZANr24EUD-s/PICT0075%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="189" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-1F8tLcTzdYM/TwVvNh2olXI/AAAAAAAAHAU/aY9EYQ2Byro/s1600-h/PICT0079%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0079 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="147" alt="PICT0079 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-csT_5_o9CHw/TwVvOIXr70I/AAAAAAAAHAc/xixaUDRxyis/PICT0079%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="189" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Verder heb ik niet stil gezeten met de feestdagen. Naast hele leuke creatieve cadeautjes uitpakken, heb ik vooral veel zitten borduren en mijn handige naai-mapje gemaakt. Mijn borduurwerk is net niet helemaal af gekomen in 2011, maar dat geeft niet! Hij is toch echt bijna af! Ik maakte een fout en die werkte zo erg door in het hele borduurwerk, dat ik een groot stuk weer moest uit halen. Maar liever dat, als dat het een storend element wordt in het geheel! De eerste foto is die van het vorige blogje hierover en die ernaast is de huidige stand van zaken! &lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-R13wYUfIDvY/TwVvO2gauPI/AAAAAAAAHBY/QJfdflYgxO0/s1600-h/26082011%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B6%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="26082011 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="157" alt="26082011 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-uGQ6FtNSnbs/TwVvPYdS23I/AAAAAAAAHBc/qSw9hSWa7aM/26082011%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B4%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="203" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-yYxuTKKBCJM/TwVvP7_m_rI/AAAAAAAAHBg/XQ_UbkOSTrQ/s1600-h/4-1-12b%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B5%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="4-1-12b (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="157" alt="4-1-12b (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-SX7mhTkIyZs/TwVvQgX2cuI/AAAAAAAAHBk/hP0jwBsFK9E/4-1-12b%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="202" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Het volgende werk ligt al weer klaar in de kast met alle toebehoren!

O ja, ik ga hem ook zo maken, dus met zwart en rood. Ik ga eens braaf doen LOL! Vervelen hoef ik me zeker niet de komende tijd! En voor 2013 staat de Camelot quilt op het programma! Ik ga maar niet opnoemen wat er dit jaar nog ligt dat afgemaakt kan worden! Daar is dit blog te klein voor!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Fijne dag verder met misschien een paar steekjes?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-jYAZfXz0OJM/TwVxWyhrM8I/AAAAAAAAHBo/9GrEgdyDLRA/s1600-h/2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE%25255B3%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="77" alt="2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-38qBasqZ-gE/TwVxXd4NTEI/AAAAAAAAHBs/89JTRjWOPeM/2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="133" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;All readers of my blog I wish all the best for 2012 and on this moment I like to express my thanks for all the comments you give me on my haberdashery work! I hope you keep doing this in 2012! The New Year has begun and you see little houses popping up on blogs around the world! I also attempted it and made 2 before 2012, to try if I really liked making those and I do! I make it scrappy, but within a fabric range, called Japanese Taupe fabrics. I hope to buy soon some fabrics for sashings and cornerstones, so I can attach them right away to the block, as doing that big task afterwards is horror! The pictures show my first houses. So far I have made 4. I hope to be able to prep some blocks today and also some tri’s for my Jane as I really need to get back to that as well!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;During the holidays, in between receiving and opening crafty presents, I have stitched a bit too, especially my big cross stitch piece. It wasn’t finished before the end of 2011, but it is nearly finished, so that is ok! I made some mistakes and it ruined the rest of what I stitched, so I descided to take it all out again and start over for that part. Now it looks much better! I thought it was better to improve it now, than regret it later when finished!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Everything for the next cross stitch piece is already received and it will be the Altengamme from the Wiehenburg designers. I will do it in red and black as in the last picture. I will be a good girl this time! I won’t get bored in 2012, I promiss! And I signed up for the pattern of Camelot quilt in 2013, when the BOM is ended the pattern can be purchase single. I won’t tell which works are now already in some stages of finishing, as the blog is to short for that!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Have a nice day and maybe some stitches to make?&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-6095612177194164056?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/6095612177194164056/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=6095612177194164056' title='5 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/6095612177194164056'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/6095612177194164056'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2012/01/huisjes.html' title='Huisjes'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh4.ggpht.com/-eJBZFOKyt8Y/TwVvLnR4uAI/AAAAAAAAG_8/LtFMo0UKQ-4/s72-c/01%252520%25252830122011%252529%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-4544506499017899507</id><published>2011-12-26T23:20:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-10T13:25:02.347+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Design'/><title type='text'>Blokken mapje voor huisjes!</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-JFIArqnoGIk/TvjzKXNQi9I/AAAAAAAAG9k/isvRmfc0D48/s1600-h/image%25255B3%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="image" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="185" alt="image" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-oTwOZmBB_5w/TvjzKyQXbjI/AAAAAAAAG9o/ZpmmtKxJ_hM/image_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Ja, nog even en dan mogen we onze huisjes op onze blogs laten zien.

Eerst dacht ik gelijk aan mijn restjes van de bijna affe top van de Dear Jane voor deze scrappy blokjes, maar na de opmerking van Jeanneke op het huisjesblog:”Verder ben ik heel benieuwd of jullie al weten van welke stofjes jullie de quilt gaan maken. Ik nog steeds niet, zit zo te twijfelen, gewoon zoals mijn kleintje of Japanse stoffen... zucht, gelukkig hebben we nog tijd om te denken”, was ik in één klap om! Die Japanse had ik nog liggen, voor ooit te maken Guutes Antique Quilt, die er nooit zal komen (zie het me gewoon niet meer doen), dus had ik een hele gespaarde krat Japanse stof over en nog geen nieuwe bestemming aan gegeven. Ja, iets van Yoko Saito, maar wat? Maar ook dat kan altijd nog, want die huisjes hebben niet veel stof nodig he! En het is precies de warme sfeer die ik zocht! Ok, weer geen scrappy quilt, maar misschien glipt er toch nog wel een CW blokje tussendoor hoor, want die kleurtjes cq. sferen combineren vaak heel goed! Dus dit is mijn impressie! Nog een paar nachtjes slapen…&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-GRgEZ9e-d10/TuOm45f6TOI/AAAAAAAAG5s/O-WCOb8f-2k/s1600-h/PICT0034%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0034" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="200" alt="PICT0034" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-8I0FBAH8V00/TuOm5R16SZI/AAAAAAAAG50/XVqJGA1D3xE/PICT0034_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="260" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;Yes, I have found the right fabrics for the new rage in Holland building scrappy houses. First I thought of my CW scraps, leftovers from my Dear Jane, but when I read on Jeanneke’s blog about her question if we already made our choice of fabric, or that we were hesitating between several options like she did (and mentioned Japanese fabrics) I was turned! Suddenly I remembered that I wanted to make Guutes Antique quilt way back years ago, but I left that idea for what it was worth already a while ago (during sorting out my fabrics one day), so that quilt wasn’t for me to be made. But I had saved a full box of fbarics for it, so what to do with them as I still like that style and atmosphere. Ok, I want to make something of Yoko Saito’s patterns, but that still can be as the houses don’t take that much fabric to build one! And it is exactly the atmosphere I was looking for for this quilt. Ok, again not scrappy (never made one), but maybe I still can make a combination with CW repor’s as Japanese and CW go well together. So this is my impression of fabrics (lowest pic). Still a few nights of sleep before we start….&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-448763255357634390?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/448763255357634390/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=448763255357634390' title='3 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/448763255357634390'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/448763255357634390'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/12/huisjes-quilt-stofkeuze.html' title='Huisjes quilt stofkeuze'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh6.ggpht.com/-vp-4RlRmvdM/TuOm4cUtarI/AAAAAAAAG5k/T5ZHzcKgBmo/s72-c/Icoon%252520huisjesquilt_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-9106063203767215723</id><published>2011-12-05T14:57:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-10T13:25:08.645+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Jane'/><title type='text'>Dear Jane triangles &amp; dollmaking</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-bh1tsEwTdEE/Tt4HFgldJ-I/AAAAAAAAG5Y/j63FAZa1L1I/s1600-h/PICT0028%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0028 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="152" alt="PICT0028 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-7HZ3La5_MCw/TtzNwQGHllI/AAAAAAAAG5c/CtoTQX2jf3Y/PICT0028%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="195" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-nTzOSl2i_18/TtzNwwHCZ_I/AAAAAAAAG5Q/QBjz4i9pe6E/s1600-h/PICT0026b%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0026b (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="152" alt="PICT0026b (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-VyOa5mX_hdo/TtzNxxa5c5I/AAAAAAAAG5U/i-5nO32ucOg/PICT0026b%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B4%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="199" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Tja, de vijfde is de update datum op Ned. blogs voor de Dear Jane, maar omdat ik al een foto heb laten zien van mijn centrum stuk en ik nog geen nieuwe driehoeken heb gemaakt, dacht ik: zal ik eens laten zien wat ik wel gedaan heb? Ik had nog nooit, geloof ik, mijn driehoeken die af zijn hier laten zien, dus bij deze een overzicht foto van het ene hoekblok en de 13 driehoeken, uit verschillende randen, dus nog niet aan elkaar gezet. Wel heb ik alle stoffen tussen driehoeken gesneden, dus ik kan gelijk de driehoeken aan elkaar gaan zetten als ze af zijn. Lekker makkelijk en het viel me tegen hoeveel werk dat nog was! Maar goed weer een klusje af!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Ook had ik jaren geleden eens een patroontje van een popje bij Atelier Bep gekocht op een beurs, maar ik gunde me nooit de tijd om dat eens even te maken. Dus afgelopen woensdag, op onze Bee, daar een beginnetje mee gemaakt en gisteren had ik het lijfje af. Moet nog een gezichtje op en dan de kleertje ervoor gemaakt, maar dat is het leukste werk vind ik! Wel vond ik het hoofd in het patroon wat vierkant t.o.v. het poppetje wat als voorbeeld plaatje erbij zat. Geen idee hoe je dat oplost, maar goed, dit is nu mijn popje! Ook stond in de beschrijving dat je het haar als een streng bovenop het hoofd moest naaien, maar dan is het achterhoofd zo kaal, dus ik – eigenwijs - heb elk draadje vast gezet en verdeeld over het hele hoofd. Wij lopen toch ook niet met een kaal achterhoofd? Nou, ik niet dan LOL! &lt;a href="http://www.atelierbep-winkel.nl/a-19590630/poppen-van-bep/hartenengel"&gt;Dit engeltje&lt;/a&gt; (klik) lijkt er nog het meeste op.&amp;nbsp; Deze heeft hetzelfde kleine gezichtje en op dezelfde manier de vlechtjes ed. Die heb ik dus te laag op het hoofd vast gezet….nou ja, al doende leert men toch? Eens kijken of ik vandaag of morgen haar kan aankleden! Zo is ook zo koud he!&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-sEPMaKknGEE/TtzNyU7LGnI/AAAAAAAAG3g/1T1zAStoP3w/s1600-h/PICT0033%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0033 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="260" alt="PICT0033 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-09kl24D2NE4/TtzNzSZzE7I/AAAAAAAAG3k/hE7voPE2kR8/PICT0033%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="200" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Verder heb ik alvast een blok getekend voor de QuiltAid quilt die ik mijn eigen draai ga geven. Sommigen van jullie vroegen wat ik van de leuke lapjes van de Ruby lijn ging maken, nu dat is dus voor een deel blokken van de QuiltAid quilt en daar dan enkele eigen ontwerpen doorheen. Vind ze nl. niet allemaal leuk en ik vind de quilt ook veels te goot worden met blokken van 12,5 inch! Mijn blokken zijn 15 cm vierkant! Dus 6 inch. Het midden blok wordt bij mij 10 inch. O ja, deze patronen maak ik alleen voor eigen gebruik he!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Fijne Sinterklaas viering voor wie dat nog gaat doen en anders gewoon een fijne dag!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-_Rc2xpVgiP4/TtzRjCLnulI/AAAAAAAAG3w/rgiYr_qOYxE/s1600-h/2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE%25255B3%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="77" alt="2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-sqU-nc4Mq-s/TtzRjgjkU_I/AAAAAAAAG30/ZDF3jDbohs4/2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="133" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;The fifth is the time on dutch blogs for a Dear Jane update, but because I have already shown pictures last week of my center piece I descided to show you the tri’s I already made and 1 corner block. I also have cut all the one piece fabric triangles, that come in between the pieced triangles in the borders. It was really quite some work to cut all those 56 triangles…but now I am ready to sew it all together while I go when a new triangle is ready again.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Ages ago I bought a rag doll pattern from a little shop on an expo. I never gave myself time to make the doll, so I wanted to make this tiny doll during our Bee last week. Well, I did do some work, but I finished the body part yesterday. The hair was quite a problem still as in the pattern it said to sew it on top of the head in one bolt and not on the back of the head, but I thought that would look strange, so I descided to do it a bit different and sewed every string of wool single to the head and tied it. I don’t like the shape of my head that much as in the pattern picture the head was more small and rounded shaped and mine looks like a square box! &lt;a href="http://www.atelierbep-winkel.nl/a-19590630/poppen-van-bep/hartenengel "&gt;This angel&lt;/a&gt; looks the best compared to my pattern picture. I saw I added the hair into strings to low on the head but this is learning while you go. Maybe I can make some clothes today or tomorrow for this doll as this naked it quite cold isn’t it?&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Besides that I already draw a pattern of the QuiltAid quilt in Eq7 so I can give this quilt my own turn. Some of you asked me what I would make of those bright fabrics I showed here in my last post, well this is what I want to do with them. Some of the blocks of the QuiltAid quilt Whimsy &amp;amp; Wonder and some blocks of my own design as I don’t like all the blocks. And I don’t like the big size of the blocks: 12,5 inches each! Mine will be 6 inch square and the center block will be 10” with a border around it of maybe flying geese units. And of course these blocks I draw are for personal use only! Have a nice day!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-9106063203767215723?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/9106063203767215723/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=9106063203767215723' title='4 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/9106063203767215723'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/9106063203767215723'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/12/dear-jane-triangles-dollmaking.html' title='Dear Jane triangles &amp;amp; dollmaking'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh5.ggpht.com/-7HZ3La5_MCw/TtzNwQGHllI/AAAAAAAAG5c/CtoTQX2jf3Y/s72-c/PICT0028%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-6134346283225945298</id><published>2011-12-01T23:28:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-10T13:25:08.645+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Kadootjes dag!</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-WSX2Dx_zKK0/Ttf_cjEeoAI/AAAAAAAAG1g/c7r5-6O6cEQ/s1600-h/PICT0019%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B9%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0019 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="158" alt="PICT0019 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-AncZVgvhDd0/Ttf_dE3YL4I/AAAAAAAAG1k/E_-mENOD1oU/PICT0019%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B7%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="206" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-xBoVTyJ3XiI/Ttf_dmmvENI/AAAAAAAAG1o/3QJuhtUwFdQ/s1600-h/PICT0020%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B8%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0020 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="158" alt="PICT0020 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-9TeZpXH0xFQ/Ttf_gv69byI/AAAAAAAAG1s/eKxShBp8uhg/PICT0020%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="205" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-gQFrinGDF6c/Ttf_g5qJBgI/AAAAAAAAG2Q/87P3V_X1Gu0/s1600-h/PICT0018%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B9%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0018 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="159" alt="PICT0018 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-N9uUYE1oqKE/Ttf_hWziL7I/AAAAAAAAG2U/RAfk1Kv-JuQ/PICT0018%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B7%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="207" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-n7F3k72MGwU/Ttf_iKh3XGI/AAAAAAAAG2I/-Z-UYG8wBYY/s1600-h/PICT0016%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B8%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0016 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="160" alt="PICT0016 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-k0XiHCtT8pg/Ttf_irlXp5I/AAAAAAAAG2M/0mI_KsW-EAo/PICT0016%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="206" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Ja hoor, vandaag was een dag met een gouden randje! De “lang” verwachtte stofjes van de Ruby serie van Moda zijn binnen! Gelukkig ook nog in maar één enveloppe en niet in twee zoals ze eerst hadden gedaan. Is toch zonde van je geld om maar 1 yard stof in een enveloppe te versturen als ie ook bij de rest past? En er had met gemak nog wel een yard bij gekund hoor! Maar zo was genoeg dit keer! De ritsen stofjes zijn F8’s en de laatste foto is de meters stof, die ik gekocht heb voor de sashings en rand (rode grote bloemenstof). Helaas was de effen witte stof die ik erbij besteld had, voor de stitcheries, niet de goede kleur (veels te geel), maar dat gaat zich wel oplossen in de toekomst. Of misschien gooi ik hem wel even door de witte kookwas en bleek hem zo! Gaat meestal heel goed als ie ruim kan draaien! Morgen toch eens uit proberen!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;O ja, ik hoorde trouwens dat de stof ook in Nederland gewoon aan de meter te koop is, misschien niet bij de winkels die de QuiltAid paketten verkopen, maar wel bij de Quilterij in Den Bosch. Nee, geen aandelen hoor! Maar vind het wel fijn om te weten, want als je toch wat stof mist om een quilt mooi af te kunnen maken, is het fijn als je in eigen land er nog aan kan komen! Meestal koop ik niet in de VS voor kleine hoeveelheden! Dan wordt het gewoon veels te duur!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Vanavond hebben we ook alvast wat kerstinkopen gedaan. Ik wilde graag weer eens een kerstdiner met mooi opgemaakte borden ed. en manlief’s hobby is koken en dat kan hij ook echt goed, al zeg ik het zelf! Het water loopt me al in de mond als ik er alleen maar aan denk! Dus zijn we maar eens wat nieuwe borden gaan shoppen en natuurlijk hoorde daar een mooi bijpassende set tafellinnen bij! Leuk gescoord bij de Blokker en Marskramer, dus ook nog voor een redelijk betaalbare prijs! En leuke mini lantaarntjes om het af te maken van manlief gehad. Het geheel wordt erg mooi! En toen kwamen we erachter dat er een nieuwe pannen- en bestek winkel bij was gekomen en die hebben we maar ff vereerd met een bezoek en, na wat aarzelen, ook een goede nieuwe koekenpan gekocht waarvan de bodem niet gaat buigen. Vormvast schijnt dat te heten! Nu kan manlief pas echt goed koken LOL! Ook gelijk een kadootje voor moeders meegenomen, dus die gaan we van het weekend eens verrassen! Op het eten na zijn we er klaar voor! Laat de Kerst maar komen! Ok, ná Sinterklaas natuurlijk! Hier gaat dan ook nooit de boom op voor die tijd! Alles heeft zo zijn eigen tijd immers!&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-NItmIdrVvMU/Ttiij2HGXKI/AAAAAAAAG2c/X8BCOg7J9Ms/s1600-h/PICT0023%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0023 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="161" alt="PICT0023 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-0iwN2pXJQi4/TtiikX4nwoI/AAAAAAAAG2o/YrSP0REMiSI/PICT0023%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="208" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0025 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="161" alt="PICT0025 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-q4TJVzqqFpU/TtiijOvtyHI/AAAAAAAAG2Y/-MHKp19vK8k/PICT0025%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="208" border="0"&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Fijne avond!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-QbmvkUqHICg/TtilTsJ8OuI/AAAAAAAAG2w/f9jWrG3eGjk/s1600-h/2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE%25255B3%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="77" alt="2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-JUieAQL9qs8/TtilUBsvzSI/AAAAAAAAG20/0SVU7Y4l3AM/2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="133" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Yes, today was a day with a golden border! The “long” awaited fabrics, Ruby line from Moda, from the USA have arrived! And it all fitted in one enveloppe as I requested! They first had put it in 2, but recarding the amount of fabrics I knew it would fit in one, so I added a special request to repack it all and they did! I hate waisting money over one yard of fabric in one enveloppe! I only like enveloppes that are chuckfull of fabrics LOL! And I felt the enveloppe and knew that even another yard would have fitted in! But it was enough for this time! I bought a F8 bundle and some yardage for sashings and border (big flowers on red). Unfortunately the solid off white was to dark to combine with the Ruby line, so I still can’t start with my stitcheries! But maybe if I wash it hot with bleach, it might bleach enough to be more the off white I need! If the fabric can loosely turn in the washing machine, it is most of the time going well this way! Will give it a try tomorrow! Oh yes, I heard that you can now also buy Ruby yardage here in Holland in a quiltshop! Always nice if you might miss out on the last piece of fabric to make it nice (I forgot to buy fabric for the binding) and you can buy those small amounts in your own country! If I buy in the States it is mostly bigger amounts due to the postal costs! Otherwise it is to expensive to send overseas.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;This evening we also have done some Christmas shopping. I wanted to have a nice decorated Christmas dinner with those lovely plates and hubby is a good cook, if I can say so myself! The water is running into my mouth when I just think of his meals! So we went to shop a few new plates and coördinating dishes.And of course I liked a new set of table cloth too, so it will be beautiful at our Christmas table! Walking around we discovered a new shop for pots and pans and knives etc. It was very good quality, so after some hesitation we went back to buy a small pan and a present for my mom too. So hubby can do a good job this Christmas! Now we only need to buy the food and we are good to go!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-6134346283225945298?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/6134346283225945298/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=6134346283225945298' title='4 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/6134346283225945298'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/6134346283225945298'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/12/kadootjes-dag.html' title='Kadootjes dag!'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh4.ggpht.com/-AncZVgvhDd0/Ttf_dE3YL4I/AAAAAAAAG1k/E_-mENOD1oU/s72-c/PICT0019%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B7%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-1814714475354085827</id><published>2011-12-01T17:30:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-10T13:24:48.843+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Celtic BOM 2011'/><title type='text'>Celtic BOM December = YULE</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-xrQUF1rUhdY/TterihYj4II/AAAAAAAAGzA/VG0eUjPFKWk/s1600-h/CBOMDec%25255B1%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="CBOMDec" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="240" alt="CBOMDec" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-qMkqFGOPzig/TterjPMuhxI/AAAAAAAAGzE/N-uT2dUEZSo/CBOMDec_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="195" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;De December maand staat in het teken van de feestdagen.

Tja, ik heb altijd al iets met huizen! Als ik dat vroeger geweten had was ik architect geworden of binnenhuis architecte, woning inrichter etc. Maar ja, ik ben gewoon niks! Tenminste als je huisvrouw annex quiltster niks noemt! But that’s life! Kun je vaak ook niet zoveel aan veranderen, zeker niet bij mij! Maar toen ik op &lt;a href="http://www.jeanneke.com/#post142"&gt;Jeannet’s blog&lt;/a&gt; las over haar scrappy huisjes quilt in poppenformaat, viel ik als een blok voor dit patroontje! Vooral het feit dat het maar 3x3 inch is vind ik geweldig! Mijn kleinste blokjes zijn mijn Dear Jane blokjes geweest, dus ja, een uitdaging ligt in het verschiet he! Dus me gelijk aangemeld, het blokje getekend in EQ7, wat lastiger was als ik dacht (doe ik toch ff? nou minder ff als ik dacht!) en een quilt is ontworpen! O ja, er komt een groter huisjes blok in het midden! Ga maar eens kijken op haar blog, want als je dit ook zo leuk vindt, kun je je nog aanmelden tot eind december! Ik ga weer een BOM maken! De laatste van de Keltische variant dan he! Maar eerst: &lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-XDZR8A0j9hU/TtdeZ77R2GI/AAAAAAAAGy4/LWpWIXxjrBQ/s1600-h/hotcoffeebutterfly%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="hotcoffeebutterfly" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="147" alt="hotcoffeebutterfly" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-rMtg7pCILNY/TtdeaWfiqpI/AAAAAAAAGy8/l_PMm_Hx7kY/hotcoffeebutterfly_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="220" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Tot Later!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-LymEHdp-P88/Ttdea4-oYtI/AAAAAAAAGyo/Qez94JUFEGc/s1600-h/2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE%25255B3%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="77" alt="2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-MgUi7KEnlEg/TtdecJSmFkI/AAAAAAAAGys/mbfCHoqQU6M/2A8DBB8832874276C1D364C4C1426EFE_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="133" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Lovely block isn’t it? Well I have always had something with houses! If I would have known before what I know now I would have become an architect or interior designer, but well I ain’t nothing! Well nothing, if you think housewife and quilter is nothing? But that’s life! And you can’t change much about that also especially in my condition. But when I came across &lt;a href="http://www.jeanneke.com/#post142"&gt;Jeannet’s blog&lt;/a&gt; and read about her scrappy small houses project and saw the doll quilt I fall like a rock for this pattern! Especially as the block is only 3x3 inches! And the smallest I have worked this far is 4,5”square, my Jane blocks. So quite a challenge! So I immediately signed up and started drawing the block in EQ7 as i thought it was an easy peasy….block to draw…NOT SO! But I managed on this early morning and the quilt was designed! Oh yes, there will be a big block in the middle! If you like to see more of it or like to join (you can do so internationally too), you can still sign up till end of december! I am off to the drawing board to make the last BOM of my Celtic quilt! But first I need COFFEE!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-1717065446404597815?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/1717065446404597815/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=1717065446404597815' title='2 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/1717065446404597815'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/1717065446404597815'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/12/scrappy-houses.html' title='Scrappy houses!'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh5.ggpht.com/-fBoQZglocm4/TtdKUB_FLBI/AAAAAAAAGyA/4d87q3cxhvo/s72-c/Icoon%252520huisjesquilt%25255B4%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-2098231516321445186</id><published>2011-11-27T20:14:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-10T13:24:48.849+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Jane'/><title type='text'>Pictures Dear Jane center piece</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-8swwQbj9vMw/TtKMErRTG9I/AAAAAAAAGuo/iw7drrQ5bhU/s1600-h/PICT0005%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0005 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="200" alt="PICT0005 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-puEKL607veo/TtKMFeZmpGI/AAAAAAAAGus/geZwo1TS_dI/PICT0005%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="260" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Sommigen van jullie vroegen om een foto van het geheel, maar omdat ik nog niet alle blokken aan elkaar had zitten van de laatste twee rijen kon ik die foto pas vanavond nemen, want precies op 5 uur vanmiddag was dit geheel klaar! De foto is wat donker want het daglicht was vandaag erg snel verdwenen. Ik probeer van de week bij helder weer een betere foto te maken! Maar zo krijgen jullie alvast een beetje een idee!

All blocks sewn together!&amp;nbsp; The pictrue is a little dark as we had to take the picture this evening, daylight was already gone by 5 pm today! Later on this week I will try to make a better picture by clear daylight! But this way you will get an idea of the whole lot! And hubby volunteered to keep the whole top up and man it is heavy!

Vanmiddag om half 6 heb ik de laatste steek gezet! Vanavond al begonnen aan het aan elkaar zetten van de laatste twee rijen, zodat die daarna aan de rest van de top gezet kunnen worden! Gelukkig heb ik ook vandaag ontdekt waarom ik er zo’n hekel aan begon te krijgen, terwijl ik het voorheen altijd zo leuk uitdagend vond om al die blokjes te maken! De oorzaak ligt in het feit dat ik, sinds Flopke een naald heeft ingeslikt, aan de grote eettafel ben gaan naaien. Daar zit ik dan niet goed (teveel gestrekt en zonder steun) en krijg pijn in mijn rug, maar omdat ik persé die blokjes af wilde krijgen, ging ik steeds door, ondanks de pijn. Vandaag heb ik in hubby’s grote stoel zitten naaien en daarin kan ik goed tegen de rugleuning steunen en geen pijn gehad en ook vanavond op de bank ging het lekker. Dus het laatste blokje was eindelijk geen nachtmerrie meer! Gelukkig maar, want ik moet nog 3 rijen van 13 driehoeken naaien en aan elkaar zetten!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;The last 4 blocks of my Baby Jane are done! This afternoon at 5.30 pm I sewed the last stitch into the last block. This evening I already started to join the blocks together with sashings, so I can add them to the rest of the top so far. Today I also dicovered why I started hating to sew those blocks, although I liked it so much before. Since Floppy swallowed a needle I sewed at the big dinner table. I can´t sit comfortable there and sit to straite up without using the back of the chair well, so I get a lot of backpain. Because I always wanted to finish those blocks I kept on struggling, despite the pain. Today I tried hubbies comfy chair and it was awesome! I could sew very relaxed without any pain and even this evening, when I continued sewing sashings to the blocks and join them, on the couch I sat comfy! So the last block wasn´t such a nightmare anymore! That is great as I still have to hand sew 3 rows of 13 triangles and sew them to the top!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-1172190196337408471?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/1172190196337408471/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=1172190196337408471' title='8 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/1172190196337408471'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/1172190196337408471'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/11/de-laatste-4-blokjes-van-mijn-baby-jane.html' title='Dear Jane: 169 blocks done!'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh4.ggpht.com/-32tfWQtWY6M/TswXeM97iII/AAAAAAAAGuc/Sb-Hy52I27E/s72-c/PICT0037%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>8</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-8678956370678075552</id><published>2011-11-21T14:27:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-10T13:25:08.646+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Ruby Ruby Ruby!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-eKVZmI60EaU/TspR1IBiUfI/AAAAAAAAGtY/vEhhyZm6uBY/s1600-h/Ruby-bundle-450%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img alt="Ruby-bundle-450" border="0" height="260" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-johIW-MRjZ8/TspR1t2s3AI/AAAAAAAAGtc/hMG5zETf5D8/Ruby-bundle-450_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="Ruby-bundle-450" width="260" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Tja, inderdaad dezelfde stof als gebruikt wordt voor de &lt;a href="http://www.quiltaideurope.com/"&gt;QuiltAid&lt;/a&gt; quilts, maar sinds ik besloten heb dat ik het teveel gedoe vind om door heel Europa bij 6 winkels mijn blokken bij elkaar te moeten sprokkelen, en dus ook 6x porto mag bijtellen, én het niet bepaald goedkope blokken zijn (komt toch gauw op een slordige 240 euri voor de stof + blokken), het mij erg onduidelijk is hoeveel van mijn bijdrage nu echt werkelijk naar Ethiopië gaat én je bijna geen enkele inbreng kunt hebben over de afwerking, je kunt immers maar uit 6 ontwerpen kiezen, ga ik er dus maar voor dat het MIJN idee van deze quilt word, want de patronen kun je niet los kopen. Ik ga dus zelf tekenen en een leuk ontwerp kiezen. De blokken worden bij mij in  ieder geval iets meer symmetrisch onderling! Maar feit blijft dat ik echt als een blok voor deze stofjes ben gevallen! Heb ze dus ook maar even besteld….een mooie F8 bundel leek me wel genoeg met wat extra stofjes voor de afwerking. Ik vind het wel een hele uitdaging ook om nu zelf iets te ontwerpen en misschien zelfs wel met iets nog leukers te komen als de orginelen!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-RXCjYynOZ1U/TspWD4wg23I/AAAAAAAAGuA/5-O-X6Dtw8Q/s1600/quiltaid+layout+mar2.BMP" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="200" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-RXCjYynOZ1U/TspWD4wg23I/AAAAAAAAGuA/5-O-X6Dtw8Q/s200/quiltaid+layout+mar2.BMP" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Design 1&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-QQJ7khm6EM0/TspXL-aWl_I/AAAAAAAAGuM/TpEXrdX_su0/s1600/quiltaid+layout+mar.BMP" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="200" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-QQJ7khm6EM0/TspXL-aWl_I/AAAAAAAAGuM/TpEXrdX_su0/s200/quiltaid+layout+mar.BMP" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Design 2&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;i&gt;Well, indeed the same fabric that is used in the &lt;a href="http://www.quiltaideurope.com/"&gt;QuiltAid&lt;/a&gt; quilts, but since I decided that it is to much hassle to try and buy all 12 blocks through western Europe (and pay all the extra postal costs) and it not really will be a cheap quilt (240 euro’s without the finishing kit at least), it still very unclear is how much is contributed to the hospital in Ethiopia of my purchase ànd you can’t make your own decisions how you want to finish your quilt (there are only 6 designs (kits) available in Europe) I decided I will make my own version of this quilt and draw my patterns myself, as patterns of the blocks aren’t available for purchase seperate (without the fabric kits). This way I can bring more symmetry into my blocks and use my own style of finishing design. But the fact remains I just fell as a rock for these fabrics! So I ordered them from my favorite shop….and a F1/8 bundle seams enough to me for this quilt. I added a few yardage for the finishing part. I even like it more to do it all by myself and see it more as a huge challenge to design my own blocks and make them more symmetrical all together and maybe even make a nicer quilt as the originals.…&lt;/i&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-8678956370678075552?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/8678956370678075552/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=8678956370678075552' title='3 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/8678956370678075552'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/8678956370678075552'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/11/tja-inderdaad-dezelfde-stof-als.html' title='Ruby Ruby Ruby!'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh5.ggpht.com/-johIW-MRjZ8/TspR1t2s3AI/AAAAAAAAGtc/hMG5zETf5D8/s72-c/Ruby-bundle-450_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total><georss:featurename>Nederland</georss:featurename><georss:point>51.94340621120202 4.8957581874999505</georss:point><georss:box>50.480798211202014 2.9479876874999507 53.40601421120202 6.84352868749995</georss:box></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-1608170967037817663</id><published>2011-11-17T07:24:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2011-11-17T07:29:04.509+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sjaan/DJ'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Jane'/><title type='text'>Goede Moed</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Tja, waar vind je dat?

Maar dat zou dan wel weer het zoveelste nieuwe project zijn die aan de stapel wordt toegevoegd, dus beter van niet, totdat ik eindelijk eens mijn Baby Jane af heb.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Maar vandaag staat het huishouden op het programma, en daarna is het weer tijd voor een Dear Jane blokje! &lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-CNxNRxDQRFE/TsSoq5orTHI/AAAAAAAAGsw/Aj1Rntb4kJA/s1600-h/PICT0025%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0025 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="200" alt="PICT0025 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-QhsC2Sm8lIw/TsSorbS6dOI/AAAAAAAAGs0/BmxLRGJeoeg/PICT0025%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="260" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Tja, jullie hadden natuurlijk al in de gaten dat ik een soort van ontkenningsfase doormaakte LOL! Maar gisterenavond alle andere projecten door het hele huis opgeruimd en mezelf eens ernstig toegesproken dat ik zo nooit in Nantes kom natuurlijk, om vandaag er met goede moed eens tegenaan te gaan. Tja, wat een telefoontje-uurtje met een vriendin al kan opleveren. Die vroeg me nl of ik hem al af had en tot mijn schande moest ik bekennen dat ik nog vier blokjes van het einde verwijderd ben! Bovenstaande al klaar gelegde en deze:&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-zOY3qEFmiUM/TsSosPIz0gI/AAAAAAAAGs8/xBzMaFMskjw/s1600-h/PICT0026%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0026 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="200" alt="PICT0026 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-7KdBBp6Be_w/TsSot1APHPI/AAAAAAAAGtI/xzHbEa0jh3Y/PICT0026%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="260" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Good Courage, were can you find that? Good courage to continue. Especially if you see lovely new projects like the new quilt for QuiltAid 2011. Look at &lt;a href="http://quiltsandsiggies.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;her blog&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; to see what I mean! My hands are itching to start with something lovely as that! But it will only be another new project on the go, so better not pick up anything new before I have finished my Baby Jane. So after doing some chorus I will be able to sew a new block.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Ye, you noticed I was going through a fase of denial weren’t you LOL? But yesterday evening I cleaned out my workspace and the living room (two different areas) with all other projects I had picked up again in the meantime and after having a good talk with myself that this way I would never get to Nantes (Fr.) I decided to focus again on my Baby Jane and for that I need good courage! And all that because a good friend asked me, in an hour telephone talk, if it was finished by now. I was ashamed to have to admit I was only 4 blocks away from finishing the center piece (see pics). So all is ready and set to go now&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-1608170967037817663?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/1608170967037817663/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=1608170967037817663' title='2 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/1608170967037817663'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/1608170967037817663'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/11/tja-waar-vind-je-dat-goede-moed-om-weer.html' title='Goede Moed'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh4.ggpht.com/-QhsC2Sm8lIw/TsSorbS6dOI/AAAAAAAAGs0/BmxLRGJeoeg/s72-c/PICT0025%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-1098738998732521944</id><published>2011-11-16T11:01:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2011-11-16T11:12:17.836+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tutorials'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Madamme Samm&apos;s blog'/><title type='text'>Guest blocker @ Madame Samm’s blog Stash Manicure</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sewwequilt.com/"&gt;&lt;img title="image" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="260" alt="image" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-eVCpa7gdhH4/TsOJ-L1yX2I/AAAAAAAAGsU/4MxmEHprVTo/image%25255B7%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="232" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;Yes, today is THE day that I will be more famous on the other side of the ocean LOL!

Ok, dus ik speel even ermee met haar, ze mag immers best wel wat aandacht hebben op een dag en ga weer terug naar mijn werkje. Maar volgens madammeke was het nog niet genoeg, dus kwam ze me haar slang brengen (een deurstopper als speelgoed). Nog ff gestoeid met die slang en weer terug aan het werk. Ineens ben ik haar kwijt en ga op zoek, je moet immers haar nog steeds goed in de gaten houden nietwaar?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-wH4KRO9mTvQ/TsD_LTFVDwI/AAAAAAAAGkM/2qVDiKJWYHI/s1600-h/PICT0006%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0006 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="157" alt="PICT0006 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-FH2Jyqj5bbo/TsD_L-fRFfI/AAAAAAAAGkQ/qLd26eil9Aw/PICT0006%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="209" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-XtZivgZiF1I/TsD_MR_VltI/AAAAAAAAGkU/wvktfsqL0ok/s1600-h/PICT0005%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B5%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0005 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="157" alt="PICT0005 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-Y6fg6FCZuEA/TsD_NRVdnBI/AAAAAAAAGkY/bvB6dyNkC-0/PICT0005%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="209" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Weet je waar ik haar vind? In mijn werkkamer (ik was in de huiskamer) en de slang moest haar maar gezelschap houden….snurk snurk! Ik moest zóóó lachen! Allereerst al om het feit dat ze altijd met haar lapje komt aandragen als ik lapjes aan het naaien ben en daarna die verontwaardiging dat ze maar apart ging liggen met haar slang en hoe ze ging liggen! Zo koddig!  &lt;p&gt;Ik hoop dat dit een lach op je gezicht kon brengen! Bij mij lukte het aardig, maar ja, ik heb het zien gebeuren en dat is soms toch anders als dat je het leest!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;This morning I was working on a lasy comfort block and suddenly Floppy is bringing me her cloth, a babytowel as it was time to play together! So I plyed a little while, as she needs her attention from time to time,&amp;nbsp; and went back to my stitching. But according to Floppy is wasn’t long enough so she dragged her toy around the room and brought it to me to play again. So we played….and I went back to stitching. Suddenly I noticed she wasn’t near meand I still need to watch her closely so she doesn’t rip out her stitches from surgery last week. So I took a tour around the house to see where she has gone to. I found her in my working area, laying on her pillow with her toy, deep asleep and making funny noises. I had to laugh out so loud! First by the fact that she alwasy comes to bring me her fabric baby towel when I start playing with my fabric and second as she was so upset that I didn’t want to play long time with her thjat she went to the other room to sleep there and only her toy could keep her compagny!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;I hope it brought a smile on your face. For me that wasn’t a problem, but I have seen it happen and that is different from just reading it and seeing a picture!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-7991252606920025847?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/7991252606920025847/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=7991252606920025847' title='3 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/7991252606920025847'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/7991252606920025847'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/11/zooo-koddig.html' title='ZOOO Koddig!'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh5.ggpht.com/-FH2Jyqj5bbo/TsD_L-fRFfI/AAAAAAAAGkQ/qLd26eil9Aw/s72-c/PICT0006%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-4750028196895515734</id><published>2011-11-14T11:51:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2011-11-14T13:06:28.458+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Quilten'/><title type='text'>Comfort blocks</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="left"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-XYYaD6g5tv4/TsEAztx4Q-I/AAAAAAAAGkc/Q5Y5Htpm2Oo/s1600-h/PICT0007Small4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0007 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="124" alt="PICT0007 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-vhVrw_0MY1Q/TsEA0IrAtLI/AAAAAAAAGkk/Nz-gReMnIjg/PICT0007Small_thumb2.jpg?imgmax=800" width="165" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-NKVGN2LoTLY/TsEA1Ah_a7I/AAAAAAAAGks/WHw0ClLxfVY/s1600-h/PICT0008Small4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0008 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="124" alt="PICT0008 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-FPlkDLUGxM4/TsEA1p2PO3I/AAAAAAAAGkw/bXh-Uw1Nuc8/PICT0008Small_thumb2.jpg?imgmax=800" width="165" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-H8hAIJhGhag/TsEA2IQMPKI/AAAAAAAAGk4/ZXPiJ9m3oz0/s1600-h/PICT0010Small4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0010 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="124" alt="PICT0010 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-tiVEwtLA7EU/TsEA2hEHttI/AAAAAAAAGlA/7nrOj81T6vM/PICT0010Small_thumb2.jpg?imgmax=800" width="165" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-_HkN3tdMNoc/TsEA3AGaXMI/AAAAAAAAGlI/tDGgG6V9PPE/s1600-h/PICT0009Small4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0009 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="124" alt="PICT0009 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-i0mVwNMVM40/TsEA3rTTq0I/AAAAAAAAGlQ/Yo86maGGq2g/PICT0009Small_thumb2.jpg?imgmax=800" width="165" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="left"&gt;Zondag ben ik eens lekker bezig geweest met blokjes maken. Ze gaan vandaag op de post naar &lt;a href="http://thescrappyappleyard.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;haar&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;,&lt;/strong&gt; voor quilts voor de familie van haar dochters verloofde en natuurlijk ook voor haar dochter, die twee weken voor ze zouden trouwen haar verloofde moest afgeven tijdens zijn missie in Afganistan. Natuurlijk is het voor ons een behoorlijke ver-van-mijn-bed-show, maar ik werd er zo door geraakt dat zo’n jonge meid al weduwe werd, dat ik gewoon iets moest doen, dus toen dit project werd geopperd heb ik me aangemeld.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="left"&gt;Daarnaast werd er voor een quiltster, die het flink moeilijk heeft gehad de laatste maanden, gevraagd om troostblokken en het was het makkelijke patroon van de cobblestone. Dus die gisterenavond ook nog ff in elkaar gestikt&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-cEkFgwOE26Q/TsEA4L9IPnI/AAAAAAAAGlY/IGjjITSnpfw/s1600-h/PICT0011Small4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0011 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="135" alt="PICT0011 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-up6cDyd6y0M/TsEA4gl6P9I/AAAAAAAAGlg/aFUcw4KLtsQ/PICT0011Small_thumb2.jpg?imgmax=800" width="180" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Ik zou ze bijna zelf gaan gebruiken zo leuk vind ik ze geworden! Maar ik heb nog genoeg restjes van de jelly rol die ik ervoor gebruikte, dus misschien stik ik er straks nog een paar in elkaar! Nu eerst eens een lekkere bak &lt;img title="hotcoffeebutterfly" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="147" alt="hotcoffeebutterfly" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-0bXOkCAKsQs/TsEA59-ebqI/AAAAAAAAGls/qv9Y2JYxsMQ/hotcoffeebutterfly_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="220" border="0"&gt;Fijne dag verder! Het zonnetje schijnt hier volop in het midden van het land!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Sunday I have been busy stitching up some blocks for &lt;a href="http://thescrappyappleyard.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;her&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. They will be send out today to give some comfort to her daughter , who lost her fiance 2 weeks before they were to be married, in Afghanistan. To us here in Holland, it is sometimes a far-from-my-bed-show, but I was so touched by the fact that such a young girl already had experienced such grief, that I simply had to do something, so when the project came up to stitch blocks for comfort quilt I just had to sign up!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;em&gt;And when I was thinking about this girl, my mind went to another quilter, in Belgium, that has gone through a tough period lately and needed some support also. The pattern for comfort blocks for her was cobblestone and I loved making up these simple and fast blocks. I liked them so much I even might stitch up a couple for a quilt for me from the leftover strips. But first I need COFFEE!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Have a great day! The sun is shining bright here in the center of the Netherlands!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-4750028196895515734?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/4750028196895515734/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=4750028196895515734' title='1 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/4750028196895515734'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/4750028196895515734'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/11/blokken-bouwen.html' title='Comfort blocks'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh6.ggpht.com/-vhVrw_0MY1Q/TsEA0IrAtLI/AAAAAAAAGkk/Nz-gReMnIjg/s72-c/PICT0007Small_thumb2.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-937927898120613116</id><published>2011-11-13T11:42:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2011-11-13T11:47:39.368+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Floppy/Flopke'/><title type='text'>Flopke herstelt goed</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Flopke’s fokster heeft het &lt;a href="http://sparklinghope.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;blog&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; weer bijgewerkt! Zo leuk om af en toe ook de andere pups uit haar nest te zien! Ze zijn met zijn achten, maar niet iedereen stuurt altijd foto’s in helaas! Maar ik heb de nodige nieuwe gezien!

It is such fun to see the new pictures of the rest of the lit! They are with 8, but not all people send in photos of their dog. But I have seen some new ones and loved it! Her brother Bo looks very similar to Floppy! It feels like I see Floppy over and over again!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Floppy is recovering pretty well from the surgery from last week and we even have to slow her down a bit as she is still not allowed to jump or run wild. And what a bare belly she has. Gladly the hair will grow back quickly!

Ik heb als onderwerp de applecore genomen en hoe je die zowel met de hand als met de naaimachine kunt maken met de malletjes methode van Sue Daley. Het is best een uitgebreid verhaal geworden, maar het was leuk om je eens te verdiepen in een uitleg schrijven! Tijdrovend is het zeer! Maar het leverde mij ook gelijk een leuk quiltje op! Het is maatje quilthuisje, dus ik heb gelijk een kadootje voor een goede vriendin, waarvan ik nu maar hoop dat ze dit niet leest! En anders….ach geeft het ook niet! Morgen nog even een tunneltje erachter en hij kan schitteren! Ik heb dit keer eens een hele andere manier van werken toegepast als ik normaal doe en het was heel leuk om zo eens wat meer van je machine te gebruiken. Het is bv. aan elkaar gestikt met siersteken (eerst gelijmd) en ook met siersteken gequilt achteraf. Het middenstuk heb ik bewust niet gequilt, omdat anders de siersteken in het niet zouden vallen of het geheel te druk zou worden. Ik ga zeker eens vaker zoiets in elkaar knutselen zonder plan vooraf! Het resultaat is dan heel verrassend en voor mij heel verfrissend!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;YES! I have done it! I have finished writing the tutorial for Madame Samms blog for wednesday next week (see link in blog sidebar) and it is on its way to the blog now. The subject of this tutorial was the applecore, aswell by hand sewing as by machine sewing but with the method of Sue Daley, using cardboard templates. It has become quite a long story, but it was exciting to write it up and focus yourself on how you can do things, you normally do by hand, also do by machine. And it worked quite well! It was time consuming, but I learned a lot myself&amp;nbsp; doing it! I made this mini quilt and simply went with the flow. I machine stitched it with decorative stitches and it was suprising to me what came up! I also quilted the mini quilt with decorative stitches on the machine , but didn’t quilt the center part as it would have been to overwhelming I guess. Tomorrow I only have to add a sleeve to the back to hang it and it is all good to go to my friends house as a birthday gift. Yes, I hope she ain’t reading this now, but even if she does…is doesn’t matter that much! I think I will do such a go-with-the-flow project again, as it was really refreshing to me and I love the bright result!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-7872270546917221668?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/7872270546917221668/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=7872270546917221668' title='2 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/7872270546917221668'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/7872270546917221668'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/11/handleiding-is-klaar-en-dus-een-affo.html' title='Handleiding is klaar en dus een AFFO!'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh6.ggpht.com/-zcHPzwK1UFc/Tr8AI7L_HuI/AAAAAAAAGiw/zcH_AhR2KEE/s72-c/PICT0002%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-8402414792561590378</id><published>2011-11-10T12:56:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2011-11-10T15:56:14.927+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Quilten'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Floppy/Flopke'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Borduren'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='LIB'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Jane'/><title type='text'>Progresssss</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Tja, ik zit echt niet helemaal stil, ook al ben ik momenteel vaste oppas van onze Flopke.

De afgelopen dagen ben ik vooral bezig geweest met de LIB blokjes en dit is het resultaat tot nu:&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-JQbdENsNlsM/Tru8sSKvzsI/AAAAAAAAGgs/3uWu6CG3Mso/s1600-h/LIB%252520nov%25252011-2%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B12%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="LIB nov 11-2 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="170" alt="LIB nov 11-2 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-DFjH9ndAx6s/Tru7xa1HzsI/AAAAAAAAGgw/CpQXj4kyMrU/LIB%252520nov%25252011-2%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B10%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="212" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-0FLYw421R4Q/Tru7yOxm3WI/AAAAAAAAGg0/db26QR4pCLI/s1600-h/LIB%252520nov%25252011%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B9%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="LIB nov 11 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="170" alt="LIB nov 11 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-nVUDVBb-MvU/Tru7yniTrqI/AAAAAAAAGg4/7PdyvJ7yo4U/LIB%252520nov%25252011%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B7%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="223" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;En tijdens de operatie ben ik fanatiek bezig geweest om alle resterende blokjes te snijden, vlieseline erachter te strijken en nu nog af en toe een tekening erop zetten:&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-a8KRb4VPIhw/Tru701FuoWI/AAAAAAAAGfI/MzumWAcU_Jw/s1600-h/lib%25255B8%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="lib" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="144" alt="lib" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-k7HzjbkO1vw/Tru71-rSmXI/AAAAAAAAGfM/ray_GBMb2Gw/lib_thumb%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="181" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Dan kan ik weer lekker verder borduren tijdens het oppassen, wat nog wel een paar dagen gaat duren….. en verder hebben we dit weekend weer eens een heerlijke cake gebakken en toen kreeg ik zo de smaak te pakken dat we zo samen koekjes gaan bakken, Flopke en ik…zij mag toekijken en genieten van de lucht en ik doe het werk, eerlijk verdeeld toch?&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-LjME8QJWlcA/Tru968APFcI/AAAAAAAAGg8/UHTgHab5-Bs/s1600-h/koekjes%252520bakken%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="koekjes bakken (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="180" alt="koekjes bakken (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-MFJzZVym9PM/Tru97dsgD2I/AAAAAAAAGhE/7T5fdloilq8/koekjes%252520bakken%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; O ja, mijn Baby Jane gaat ook vooruit. Nog 3 blokjes te gaan en dan heb ik alle midden blokjes af! Pfff…..en dan nog 3x13 driehoeken…..en het in elkaar zetten ervan!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;En verder ben ik er eindelijk uit wat ik van een charm pack wilde maken met flanellen lapjes, die ik al jaren had liggen voor Flopke. Het wordt dus een nieuwe kussenhoes (haar eerste is echt gesleten nu), maar het patroon ben ik nu uit: snowballs!&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-w47suDRXFAA/Tru74CytqfI/AAAAAAAAGfo/owUXFV2RDLc/s1600-h/PICT0107%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0107 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="180" alt="PICT0107 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-v9c7DTiSjXI/Tru74s02qoI/AAAAAAAAGfs/-RXzHaZHY6M/PICT0107%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;En ik ben hard aan het werk geweest om mijn uitleg (tutorial) te maken voor het blog van Madame Sam, Stash Manicure. Dit is het onderwerp op 16 november:&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-_CaZAENtv6A/Tru75FC2hII/AAAAAAAAGf0/HvVIKggidiw/s1600-h/PICT0109%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0109 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="180" alt="PICT0109 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-IQT6ca-BnA8/Tru75v3x_XI/AAAAAAAAGgA/TLUB9GsvGE4/PICT0109%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Dus nog de laatste stappen uitleggen en dan kan ie op de post! Nu lekker even met deeg spelen en vanmiddag lekker smullen! Roomboter zandkoekjes! Jammie! &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;@ 16.00 uur:Dit was het resultaat en Flopke werd ook op gepaste wijze verwend met een rauw eitje!

She has been spayed last monday, due to some medical reasons, so we have to watch her closely in case she wants to lick or bite the threads of the wounds. And it starts itching, so she is doing it more and more, even in her sleep! But so far so good and she is deep asleep right now behind me on her pillow, so I have the opportunity to show some of my work to you. I have been working hard on the Life Is Beautiful block I started before. During Floppies surgery I have been cutting blocks and ironing the stabiliser to the backs so i only hacve to draw a outline on it to move on! And I can say you can embroider a lot while baby sitting your doggy!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Last weekend we finally made a homebaked cake again and it was jummy! So I decided to spoil Floppy and bake some cookies with her. Ok, she is laying beside me watching and smelling….while I do all the work!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Oh and my Baby Jane is moving forward again. I have cut all blocks so far and only 3 left to stitch…the last ones are the hard ones, not difficult, just no mood to do them! And still 3x13 triangles more to go and assemble them all!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;And Floppy needs a new cover for her bed/pillow so I decided I will finally cut into the charm pack of flanel I bought for this years ago. I am making snowball blocks of them as I wanted the fabrics to stand out and show off. Halfway done in one sunday afternoon!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;And the rest of the week I have been really busy pattern writing for the tutorial I will show on Madame Sam’s blog Stash Manicure on November 16th. 2011, YES! The subject I am showing in the picture. Only a few last steps to write down and it is good to go! Now I am off to play with dough and bake cookies! Jummy!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-8402414792561590378?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/8402414792561590378/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=8402414792561590378' title='6 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/8402414792561590378'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/8402414792561590378'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/11/progresssss.html' title='Progresssss'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh4.ggpht.com/-DFjH9ndAx6s/Tru7xa1HzsI/AAAAAAAAGgw/CpQXj4kyMrU/s72-c/LIB%252520nov%25252011-2%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B10%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-6782973584922270609</id><published>2011-10-31T16:30:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2011-10-31T19:59:58.245+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Celtic BOM 2011'/><title type='text'>Celtic BOM: Halloween &amp; Samhain</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-qpYpUFV7nNQ/Tq6_FB4kO3I/AAAAAAAAGdo/CQtwguZoSzs/s1600-h/Samhain%252520One%252520this%252520Night%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="Samhain One this Night" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="240" alt="Samhain One this Night" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-fWnCqrQaO3o/Tq6_Fg1MHRI/AAAAAAAAGdw/Z4lbSkIziHw/Samhain%252520One%252520this%252520Night_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="180" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Het is al weer bijna november. Samhain, het oude Keltische Nieuwjaar, valt op 1 november. En bij dit feest werden vooral de doden geëerd en geloofden men dat de scheiding tussen de werelden dunner was als normaal, waardoor ze kontakt konden maken met de levenden. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="left"&gt;Bij de oude Kelten begon de dag zo gauw de zon verdween, dus wat wij nu de avond/nacht noemen. Dus vanavond begint Samhain al en daarmee ook dus Halloween (en dus staat het patroon er dan ook nu al op). Eigenlijk zijn Halloween en Samhain twee begrippen die onlosmakelijk met elkaar verbonden zijn. Hoe en wat lees je allemaal in de zeer uitgebreide toelichting bij de patroon beschrijving, die weer voor je klaar staat op &lt;a href="http://simply2m.blogspot.com/"&gt;Simply2M&lt;/a&gt; (KLIK). &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-Nmh-a2mar3A/Tq7v_dc5xnI/AAAAAAAAGeI/cuWriDbCbcA/s1600-h/halloween%25255B2%25255D.gif"&gt;&lt;img title="halloween" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="240" alt="halloween" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-v9_XK1chmz8/Tq7v_6E_svI/AAAAAAAAGeQ/oCqO5_jYeT8/halloween_thumb.gif?imgmax=800" width="194" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Veel plezier!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Blessed Be!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="center"&gt;Marianna &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-sT86pcyBV0Y/Tq6_Gb4GSDI/AAAAAAAAGd4/IB7dyDvj-_o/s1600-h/gif_halloween-samhain%25255B2%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="gif_halloween-samhain" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="183" alt="gif_halloween-samhain" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-2EDnp4Rqa2I/Tq6_KG0Z3EI/AAAAAAAAGeA/LkzecavO5as/gif_halloween-samhain_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="244" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;It is November already and on the 1st. wiccans and pagans celebrate the New Year. A festival to honor and remember the dead and communicate with them as the veil between the world is thinner than normal.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;In old celtic times the day started when the sun disappeared, so what we call evening or night. So Samhain starts tonight, also called Halloween as these two are connected firmly. And this is the reason why the pattern is published on October 31th! The ins and outs of this festival are descriped in the patterns description, which is ready for download on &lt;a href="http://simply2m.blogspot.com/"&gt;Simply2M&lt;/a&gt; (CKLICK). So Hop over and get it!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Blessed Be!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Marianna &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-6782973584922270609?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/6782973584922270609/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=6782973584922270609' title='0 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/6782973584922270609'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/6782973584922270609'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/10/celtic-bom-halloween-samhain.html' title='Celtic BOM: Halloween &amp;amp;

En hem het liefste in een hoek smijt om nooit meer aan te kijken? Maar dan toch ergens een sprankje energie vandaan tovert en hem maar weer op pakt om vol goede tegenzin ermee verder te gaan, omdat je weet ALS hij af is je erg trots op jezelf mag zijn en zult zijn en er enorm van genieten kunt om hem als quilt lekker over je heen te trekken of aan de muur te bewonderen? &lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-_5XZWH6-FEs/TqlT4UKS4bI/AAAAAAAAGbg/NykMatN07NU/s1600-h/PICT0045%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0045 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="180" alt="PICT0045 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-lQfSql-JF1E/TqlT45n8OSI/AAAAAAAAGbk/f5v2njZXwzc/PICT0045%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;NEE&lt;/strong&gt;? Nou ik &lt;strong&gt;WEL&lt;/strong&gt;! Ik ben dan ook HEEL blij dat het stapeltje van mijn laatste rijen voor mijn Baby Jane weer een paar blokjes gegroeid is. De linker is rij L met losse sashings erbij, maar die mag ik er pas van mezelf aan zetten als alle blokjes van rij M ook gemaakt zijn en daar zit hem nu net de kneep! Ik ben nl. bezig met een blokje met 49 stukjes (o ja, de blokjes zijn maar 4,5”he)…Ik had al weer twee blokjes geknipt de afgelopen week, maar kon me er niet toe zetten om ze ook daadwerkelijk in elkaar te zetten! Nu dus toch maar de stoute schoenen aangetrokken en ben weer met frisse tegenzin verder gegaan! Ik zal hem laten zien als ie af is! Dit blokje dan he!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Have you had this sometimes too? That you know you should keep going with a quilt that is about time to get finished, but you really don’t see how to? And love to toss it in a corner to never look back? But somehow you find a sparkle of energy again and takes the duty on again with lots of dislike (almost getting towards hate), because you KNOW that when you get it finished you will be so proud of yourself and love to cuddle under it on the couch or admire hanging on the wall? No? Well, I DO! &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;I am very pleased the little pile of blocks for the last rows of my Baby Jane has grown again some. The left pile is row L with the separate sashings on top of it, which I can only attach when I have finished all blocks of row M (promiss to myself) and that is the trouble! I am currently working on a block with 49 pieces (yes, the blocks are only 4,5")….I had prepped 2 more blocks last week, but I couldn’t set myself to start sewing them. So now I took on the pledge and continue (with lots of dislike indeed). I promiss I will show it to you when it is done. Don’t tell when!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-487119656822793969?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/487119656822793969/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=487119656822793969' title='1 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/487119656822793969'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/487119656822793969'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/10/hebben-jullie-dat-nu-ook-wel-eens.html' title='Hebben jullie dat nu ook wel eens?'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh5.ggpht.com/-lQfSql-JF1E/TqlT45n8OSI/AAAAAAAAGbk/f5v2njZXwzc/s72-c/PICT0045%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-5844606864315996991</id><published>2011-10-27T13:34:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-10-27T13:43:54.204+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Design'/><title type='text'>Happiness &amp; Good Luck!</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-Ouh4OIU8ARI/TqlBr1Sp6uI/AAAAAAAAGbQ/hNerEiUrwCc/s1600-h/PICT0039%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B11%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0039 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="181" alt="PICT0039 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-WpgefgLI4w4/TqlBsj6qJYI/AAAAAAAAGbU/sTFfXeI3Zwc/PICT0039%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B9%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="224" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-uG0ATcUF6Hg/TqlBtSiZdqI/AAAAAAAAGbY/6sypex2OMD0/s1600-h/PICT0041%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B10%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0041 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="181" alt="PICT0041 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-oMOUHGOfxj4/TqlBuDSI7bI/AAAAAAAAGbc/rZGGBQvWxTo/PICT0041%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B8%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="226" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Ja, dat verzin ik niet, zo heten deze FQ bundels echt! Ze zijn ontworpen voor &lt;a href="http://thehappyzombie.com/blog/?page_id=479"&gt;Monica van Happy Zombie&lt;/a&gt;. Zijn ze niet ontzettend mooi? Om gewoon vrolijk van te worden in deze donkere dagen! Ik heb nog geen project voor deze stofjes gepland, maar dat lijkt me niet zo moeilijk! Ik denk dat ik ze maar reserveer voor een eigen ontwerp voor de lente of zo! Nieuw Leven/New Life gaat dat patroon heten, de tekeningen moeten nog gemaakt, en de ideeën tollen al rond door mijn hoofd, maar de naam heb ik al! LOL! En als jullie denken dat er niets gebeurd hier, dan heb je het goed mis! Ik ben hard aan het werk met ontwerpen van de volgende blokken van mijn Home Sweet Home quilt. (Heb je er ooit bij stil gestaan hoeveel tijd er gaat zitten alleen al in het ontwerpen van een quiltpatroon, vooral voor stitchery? Wel, HEEL VEEL) Kijk maar op mijn ontwerp blog &lt;a href="http://qddshop.blogspot.com/"&gt;QDD&lt;/a&gt; (klik) wat ik zoal gedaan heb de laatste tijd!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Yes, I am not making this up! These are the names for these FQ bundles. They are designed by &lt;a href="http://thehappyzombie.com/blog/?page_id=479"&gt;Monica from Happy Zombie&lt;/a&gt;. Aren’t they beautiful? Just to cheer yourself up in these dark days before Christmas! I haven’t sceduled them in for some kind of project yet, but that won’t but much of a problem I guess. I think I will put them away for one of my own designs for Spring. New Life will be the name of that pattern. Yes, the drawings still need to be made, and the ideas are swirling around in my head already, but the name is a fact! LOL! And if you all think I hardly work on anything, you are dead wrong! I am working hard designing the next few blocks for my Home Sweet Home quilt. (Have you ever thought about how much time goes into designing all these stitchery patterns? Well a LOT) Hop over to my design blog &lt;a href="http://qddshop.blogspot.com/"&gt;QDD&lt;/a&gt; (click) to see what I have been doing lately!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-5844606864315996991?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/5844606864315996991/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=5844606864315996991' title='1 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/5844606864315996991'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/5844606864315996991'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/10/happiness-good-luck.html' title='Happiness &amp;amp; Good Luck!'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh6.ggpht.com/-WpgefgLI4w4/TqlBsj6qJYI/AAAAAAAAGbU/sTFfXeI3Zwc/s72-c/PICT0039%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B9%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-4023511573493811007</id><published>2011-10-16T20:37:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-10-16T20:43:17.324+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Design'/><title type='text'>Peacock Talk</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-eOfyfqxgVNo/TpskZUYggiI/AAAAAAAAGYc/inKJNhryI64/s1600-h/peacock%252520talk%25255B1%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="peacock talk" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="240" alt="peacock talk" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-a8HTvJNbclI/TpskZ2BlseI/AAAAAAAAGYk/IE3eQ2daqOY/peacock%252520talk_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;En hier is dan mijn eerste blok! Eigen ontwerp! IK ben vooral gek op de pauw en het konijntje!&amp;nbsp; En verder heb ik er een beetje een herfst tafereeltje van gemaakt met besjes in de boomtak ed. en laat bloeiende bloemetjes! Het paisley motief in EQ7 leent zich heel goed voor leuke vogel typetjes nietwaar?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;And here is my very own first draw block! Not a overlay from another image, just my own drawings! I love the peacock and the rabbit! Aren’t they cute? The paisley motif in EQ7 is an excellent tool to draw all types of birdies! Besides the birdies I made a bit an autumn scenery with the late blooming flowers and the berries in the tree….&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-4023511573493811007?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/4023511573493811007/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=4023511573493811007' title='3 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/4023511573493811007'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/4023511573493811007'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/10/peacock-talk.html' title='Peacock Talk'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh4.ggpht.com/-a8HTvJNbclI/TpskZ2BlseI/AAAAAAAAGYk/IE3eQ2daqOY/s72-c/peacock%252520talk_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-988483188344469465</id><published>2011-10-11T14:41:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-10-11T14:53:44.211+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Floppy/Flopke'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sjaan/DJ'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Algemeen'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Jane'/><title type='text'>Training versus hobby</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-cYQYj5-Ul-s/TpQ5TVsMmVI/AAAAAAAAGVw/UKdXZxPZnpg/s1600-h/PICT0027%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0027 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="240" alt="PICT0027 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-gcIVAP9Ra3Q/TpQ5TxBjGUI/AAAAAAAAGV4/KdQDaNXUFjw/PICT0027%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="180" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Lang geleden, dus ongeveer 10 jaar, ben ik eens begonnen aan het leren gitaar spelen. Na de verhuizing vanuit Eindhoven naar het midden des lands zou ik weer les nemen, maar dat is er nooit meer van gekomen. Maar om die gitaar WEG te doen, dat ging me teveel aan het hart! En dan kom je erachter dat je eigenlijk het heel leuk vind om dat weer op te pakken, dus wat doe je dan? Ja, juist ja, dan pak je je oude lesboek weer eens tevoorschijn en gaat oefenen! Ok, het klinkt nog niet echt als muziek, meer als tokkelen, maar toch, het voelt heel lekker om weer te doen! En het is HEEL iets anders als quilten!&amp;nbsp; &lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-lsm3Xu-ldE4/TpQ5U4qpA9I/AAAAAAAAGXU/GweMIAXHWfo/s1600-h/PICT0022%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0022 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="155" alt="PICT0022 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-zQ6bnmovjNY/TpQ5Vivm5mI/AAAAAAAAGXY/KbTh_7I8LEk/PICT0022%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="207" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-Ejgio8WnC18/TpQ5WSN6TsI/AAAAAAAAGXc/wNoqrJVl9H4/s1600-h/PICT0024%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0024 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="154" alt="PICT0024 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-EMSIXG3zk9k/TpQ5W4ZTcHI/AAAAAAAAGXg/ZTYLHbB_xHI/PICT0024%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="205" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Ondertussen trainen we nog steeds met Flopke en manlief doet dat op zijn geheel eigen manier!

After we moved from the south to the middle of Holland I would continue my lessons, but it never got that far. But when the question popped up, to get rid of it, I felt to much emotions to be able to say goodbye to my spanish gitar! So what would I do with it? YES! Play it again! So I grabbed my old books and started practising again. Ok, it doesn’t sound like music yet, but it feels awefully good to play again! And it is something totally different from quilting! In between we still practice with Floppy and hubby does it in his own special way. So when he is in the mood to grab a bite he lets Floppy work for a piece of cheese. YES, she picks it out of his mouth WITHOUT touching him! Smart he! Oh yes, I have worked on Jane again a little bit. I have prepped 3 more blocks and last week I sewed 4 of row L and 1 of row M (M1). Now I am struggling with M7 Junko’s Rose garden, with all it rounded shapes!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-988483188344469465?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/988483188344469465/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=988483188344469465' title='0 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/988483188344469465'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/988483188344469465'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/10/training-versus-hobby.html' title='Training versus hobby'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh3.ggpht.com/-gcIVAP9Ra3Q/TpQ5TxBjGUI/AAAAAAAAGV4/KdQDaNXUFjw/s72-c/PICT0027%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-104954996511348859</id><published>2011-10-05T23:03:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2011-10-06T00:08:50.688+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sjaan/DJ'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Jane'/><title type='text'>Nog meer DJ rijen/ Another DJ row</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-KPISSAMQ8LA/TozUiCtqJiI/AAAAAAAAGVY/N453Px9so1E/s1600-h/51011-2%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="51011-2 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="180" alt="51011-2 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-DfO2k5omSYU/TozUigpm5ZI/AAAAAAAAGVc/Ah139Np745o/51011-2%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Ff showen, ook al is het laat op de avond en bijna nacht! Ik heb nu tot en met rij K aan elkaar zitten, dus morgenochtend wordt het hard werken aan de blokken van rij L om weer een rij aan elkaar te kunnen zetten. Het gaat nu waarschijnlijk iets langzamer, want ik heb niet veel kant en klare blokken meer liggen en moet dus echt aan de slag om die laatste 14 blokken in elkaar te zetten! Daarna komt dan nog het verhaal van de driehoeken en hoekblokken, dus ik ben nog heel zoet de komende tijd!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Just showing off late in the evening, almost night! I assembled&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;the top till row K, so in the morning I have to work hard on making new blocks&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;from row L to be able to assemble row L.The proces will slow down a bit now as I need to sew entire blocks first and how hardly any finished&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;blocks left over to put into rows. I have about 14 more blocks to make till the center piece is finished! After that I will have to work on the tri’s and&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;corners, so I will still be a sweet girl for quite some time!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-104954996511348859?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/104954996511348859/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=104954996511348859' title='2 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/104954996511348859'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/104954996511348859'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/10/nog-meer-dj-rijen-another-dj-row.html' title='Nog meer DJ rijen/ Another DJ row'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh5.ggpht.com/-DfO2k5omSYU/TozUigpm5ZI/AAAAAAAAGVc/Ah139Np745o/s72-c/51011-2%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-9045918020255458485</id><published>2011-10-03T11:11:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-10-03T11:44:54.369+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='QDD'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Design'/><title type='text'>Quilts: Desire &amp; Design</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Ja, dat is een mooie titel he! Waar draait het immers om bij quilts? Juist om ons verlangen iets te creëren en dan vooral met een mooi ontwerp! Dus nu ik mijn passie voor ontwerpen nieuw leven aan het in blazen ben (EQ7 kopen was een onderdeel daarvan) heb ik ook mijn bijpassende blog wat nieuw leven in geblazen! En de naam is dus QDD als afkorting van deze titel! Je kunt het &lt;a href="http://qddshop.blogspot.com/"&gt;HIER&lt;/a&gt; vinden. Ook heb ik op dit blog een button aangemaakt (zie links), zodat jullie er makkelijk naar toe kunnen gaan! Alle gratis patronen van de Celtic BOM staan daar nu ook te pronken en download klaar. En van de week komt er nog een cadeautje van hubby met de post! Heerlijk om soms makkelijk te kunnen shoppen op internet!&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-UkdZclTY2Bw/Tol8MaD8o8I/AAAAAAAAGTY/iuRn9aGQ2b0/s1600-h/image%25255B3%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="image" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="125" alt="image" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-jGNOdluDBkg/Tol8M0msktI/AAAAAAAAGTc/uYC32vJYnfk/image_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Het is een tekentablet om bij tekenprogramma’s en ook EQ7 te gebruiken! Ik kan bijna niet wachten tot het binnen is, zo blij ben ik ermee! En na het programma goed verkend te hebben wil ik eens kijken of ik mooie stitchery patronen kan maken! Heb zoveel ideeën daarvoor! Maar om hier nu nog wel lekker een beetje vrolijk over ditjes en datjes te kunnen blijven kletsen heb ik dus de ontwerpstudio een eigen blog gegeven! Ok, ik zit achter dezelfde PC in dezefde kamer maar toch! Het klinkt wel leuk he! Mijn vingers jeuken, dus zo maar ff spelen met EQ7 om goed te oefenen!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-3vniX86RDTk/TomBtjre9WI/AAAAAAAAGTg/OdR8DpenIHg/s1600-h/image%25255B7%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="image" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="141" alt="image" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-UkmW4bVGF2E/TomBt6w_NRI/AAAAAAAAGTk/SjkY7fsnSz8/image_thumb%25255B3%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="144" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Madamme Sam from&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-7sDNG-pGiGU/TomBuY8zo0I/AAAAAAAAGTo/FEhzn7fOhOA/s1600-h/youreyesonlybcktoschool%25255B4%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="youreyesonlybcktoschool" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="119" alt="youreyesonlybcktoschool" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-hsSFJ46rb_g/TomBu49wcbI/AAAAAAAAGTs/Jg38dYvK50k/youreyesonlybcktoschool_thumb%25255B2%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="340" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;O ja, de reden waarom ze zo jeuken is omdat ik ben uitgenodigd door madame Sam om voor haar &lt;a href="http://www.sewwequilt.com//"&gt;SEW WE QUILT-blog&lt;/a&gt; een tutorial te schrijven! Sorry hoor, weet geen nederlands woord hiervoor! Maar ik ben zeer vereerd , want als je ziet wie er pas nog hebben geschreven, dan zijn dat niet de minste (zoals Helen Stubbings van &lt;a href="http://www.hugsnkisses.net/"&gt;Hugs &amp;amp; Kisses&lt;/a&gt;)! Errug leuk dus! Dus wie nog wensen heeft mag roepen wat je graag als een tutorial zou willen zien! Dan ga ik kijken of ik er wat mee kan! Ik heb natuurlijk zelf ook al leuke ideëen, maar jullie zijn de BAAS he! LOL!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Yes, this is a nice title he! What is a quilt always all about? Yes, our desire to create and especially with a beautiful design. So now I have put some new life into my passion for designing (buying EQ7 is part of that) I also wanted to give my design studio blog a facelift. And the name still remains the same: QDD, which is short for Quilts: Desire &amp;amp; Design. You can hop over &lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href="http://qddshop.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;em&gt;HERE&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt; to check it out. I also made a blog button on this blog, so you can always find it easily! All the free patterns of my Celtic BOM are also there for download. I still work with Margo on our Simply2M blog, but I thought I also needed my own space in the design world!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Hopefully this week I will receive another gadget to help me design! Hubby bought me online a drawing tablet,(like the above picture) to use with drawing programmes and EQ7. I hardly can wait to start using it and explore its features! When I have checked out EQ7 enough I want to design some stitchery patterns as I have so many ideas for that whirling around in my head! But I still want to be able to chit-chat on my blog and to keep everything a bit clearly what is what I decided a separated blog would be best. This blog will still be about my daily chit-chat! And QDD will be all about DESIGN! Ok, I am sitting at the same desk in the same room, but what the heck! It sounds neet isn’t it! My fingers are itching to start drawing and playing with EQ7!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;O yes, the reason why my fingers are itching so much is because Madame Sam from the &lt;a href="http://www.sewwequilt.com//"&gt;SEW WE QUILT-blog&lt;/a&gt; invited me to write a tutorial about a subject I can choose myself. I feel very honoured by this. When you look around on her blog you’ll see that many talented designers (like Helen Stubbings from &lt;a href="http://www.hugsnkisses.net/"&gt;Hugs &amp;amp; Kisses&lt;/a&gt;) have posted there earlier, so this is a BIG thing to me! Just LOVE it! So any one who has ideas or wishes she/he likes to see a tutorial about write me so I can see if I can do that! I have some nice ideas myself, but he, you are the BOSS!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-9045918020255458485?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/9045918020255458485/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=9045918020255458485' title='1 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/9045918020255458485'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/9045918020255458485'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/10/quilts-desire-design.html' title='Quilts: Desire &amp;amp; Design'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh5.ggpht.com/-jGNOdluDBkg/Tol8M0msktI/AAAAAAAAGTc/uYC32vJYnfk/s72-c/image_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-6748397678964836193</id><published>2011-10-01T13:35:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-10-01T13:35:58.947+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Celtic BOM 2011'/><title type='text'>Celtic Bom Oktober</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://members.upc.nl/r.bootsma/Designs/CBOM10.pdf"&gt;&lt;img title="image" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="240" alt="image" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-WELQbQ-S1Ps/Tob7HmENzOI/AAAAAAAAGTI/Cw2gtz4fTo4/image%25255B4%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="194" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Het is al weer 1 Oktober, dus tijd voor het 10e deel van onze Celtic BOM. Deze maand geen paganistisch feest, dus heb ik gekozen voor de Keltische Knoop en in deze uitvoering staat het symbool voor de drieëenheid van de Moeder, nl. de maagd, de moeder en de oude vrouw. Meer hierover kun je lezen in de patroon beschrijving, die je&amp;nbsp; op ons &lt;a href="http://simply2m.blogspot.com/"&gt;Simply2M&lt;/a&gt; blog kunt vinden. Je kunt het zowel als applicatie maken of als stitchery. Veel plezier ermee en we zijn weer benieuwd naar jullie uitvoering! &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;It is October 1st., so time for part 10 of our Celtic BOM. This month there is no special celebration for pagans, so I choosed the Celtic Knot and in this pattern it symbolises the trinity of the Mother Goddess, the virgin, the mother and the crone. You can read more about this subject in the pattern description at our &lt;a href="http://simply2m.blogspot.com/"&gt;Simply2M&lt;/a&gt; blog. You can make this as applique or as a stitchery. Have fun and we are still curious how you did it! &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-6748397678964836193?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/6748397678964836193/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=6748397678964836193' title='0 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/6748397678964836193'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/6748397678964836193'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/10/celtic-bom-oktober.html' title='Celtic Bom Oktober'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh6.ggpht.com/-WELQbQ-S1Ps/Tob7HmENzOI/AAAAAAAAGTI/Cw2gtz4fTo4/s72-c/image%25255B4%25255D.png?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-4479109696918415891</id><published>2011-09-29T13:45:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-09-29T13:52:22.601+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Quilten'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='M-BOM'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Scandanavian Christmas'/><title type='text'>FF kietelen</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Ja, soms moet je jezelf ff kietelen toch?

Tja, ik was verkocht toen ik deze mooie bijpassende stofjes zag die gebaseerd zijn op die quilt! Het ecru is hier weer wat te geel, dus misschien dat die er niet in komt, of denken jullie dat dat juist leuk is, wat verschillende tinten? Kan anders wat saai worden misschien alleen muisgrijs?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-BxlfUXNVMko/ToRaSgprKoI/AAAAAAAAGSw/kYkD8G3LfKA/s1600-h/PICT0016%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0016 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="180" alt="PICT0016 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-EBHDLVcVVMg/ToRaSwnQCVI/AAAAAAAAGS0/6mfdjrmtsa8/PICT0016%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; En last but not least: de aanvulling voor de MBOM. Op de gok ook weer de rood/roze stof gekocht en die past super goed erbij! Gek genoeg is de blauw die ik nu gekocht heb, uit dezelfde serie hier wat groeniger als de FQ die in mijn bundel zat! Ach, zie je in het geheel toch niet. Ze komen niet naast elkaar te zitten! En de ecru vind ik echt super goed passen. Ik heb dan ook hulp gehad hoor, want wit is niet te kiezen op kleur op je scherm! Dus de dame van de winkel is echt met een overgebleven stofje van de stoffenlijn langs de witte effen stoffen gegaan en deze vond zij het beste passen, nou ze had gelijk! En ja, ik heb effen gekozen, omdat met print nog moeilijker was en als ik ervan overhoud is het leuk te gebruiken voor stitcheries!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;For some project I bought extra fabrics, like for the MBOM (see earlier entries) I bought some yards to make long borders and I picked the color by name and it worked out so well! I also got some help from the shop employee as cream is difficult to select from your PC screen! She did a wonderful job! I also needed some background for 2 jellyrol quilts and I picked a marble, that in real life was a little more brownish as I prefered, but I think it will go well as there is also darker brown in the jellyrol. I also came across some fabrics, designed by Lynette Anderson, and I just had to have some of it for my Scandanavian Christmas quilt, still to start! The fabric design is based on that quilt! And finally, after saving up for a couple of months, I was able to buy EQ7 and I LOVE it!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-4479109696918415891?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/4479109696918415891/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=4479109696918415891' title='3 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/4479109696918415891'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/4479109696918415891'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/09/ff-kietelen.html' title='FF kietelen'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh3.ggpht.com/-ywkKnVT0bBY/ToRaPQhJOEI/AAAAAAAAGSM/cOtQ6xOZca8/s72-c/PICT0015%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-5228493657708389941</id><published>2011-09-26T22:30:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-09-26T22:37:39.961+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sjaan/DJ'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Jane'/><title type='text'>Dear Jane progress</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-pWY2jPdn7aQ/ToDg71AS7jI/AAAAAAAAGR4/R8Zrgw02rbg/s1600-h/260902011-3%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="260902011-3 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="180" alt="260902011-3 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-RhfM2b9gYhM/ToDg8Tx-_NI/AAAAAAAAGR8/y-1Q0WJ-AxI/260902011-3%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-Zev9_SYduWA/ToDg8jD0sNI/AAAAAAAAGSA/DW0V2rGE9rA/s1600-h/26092011-1%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="26092011-1 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="180" alt="26092011-1 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-0qZ_ZK6E664/ToDg8yuV50I/AAAAAAAAGSE/UlDiZQv4cnk/26092011-1%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Op deze heugelijke dag, dat mijn mams 78 is geworden, heb ik vanavond om 21.50 de laatste steekjes gezet aan de 9e rand en dit is nu het geheel tot nu toe! Hopelijk lukt het nog om voor 1 oktober de laatste twee raden eraan te zetten, die ik al kant en klaar heb liggen qua blokjes, zodat ik dan nog twee weken heb om de L en M rij af te maken, waarvan ik in totaal al 12 blokjes heb liggen, verspreid over die twee rijen. Gelukkig heb ik ook al de nodige blokjes geknipt liggen van de L rij, dus dat scheelt ook weer veel voorbereiding! Stug door ploeteren is nu het motto om mijn doel te halen om op 15 Oktober de centrum blokken tot een quilttop genaaid te hebben!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;At this festive day, that my mom turned 78, I put the last stitches into the 9th. row at 21.50 hours this evening and this is the whole piece now so far! Hopefully I can add 2 more rows before October 1st., which I have ready in their baggies (the blocks I mean), so I have another two weeks to make the last blocks of the center piece to reach my goal of having the center piece sewn together by October 15th. I already have 12 blocks finished devided over those 2 last rows L &amp;amp; M. I also prepped several blocks ready to sew them.

Het doel is om juiste diegene over de streep te trekken die twijfelen of quilten wel wat voor hun is. En twee dagen per week (dinsdag en donderdags) is er een give away voor al bestaande quilters. Er zijn hele leuke dingen te winnen, zoals FQ bundels en allerlei gereedschap voor het quilten. Maar wat ik het leukste eraan vind is niet of je wel of niet iets kan winnen, want meestal doe je dat toch niet, maar juist het feit dat er elke dag leuke tutorials te vinden zijn over de meest uiteen lopende onderwerpen die je maar bedenken kan! En ik ben er echt al de nodige tegen gekomen waar ik zelf nauwelijks iets van wist en ik ben toch echt wel een paar jaartjes al bezig! Vandaag is er bv. eentje over hoe je makkelijk kunt zorgen dat je geen dikke bulten in de binding krijgt als je bijna op het einde bent van aan naaien. En het makkelijke is ook nog dat je al die tutorials kunt opslaan als PDF’s op je eigen pc, dus makkelijk nog eens na te kijken als je zover bent om ermee aan de slag te gaan! Dus wel de moeite waard om eens een kijkje te gaan nemen!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Yesterday I was surfing the web, an activity I like to do when I am not feeling all to well (but to well to stay in bed), like this week now the flu has hit me again.Via via, as you hardly remember many times how you came across a new blog,I arrived at this sewwequilt blog, also know as stash manicure.The next 5 weeks there is a wannabee quilter campaign with all kind of lovely goodies to win. For quilters there is a contest on tuesday and thursday and wannebee quilters can win stuff on the rest of the week (workweeks it is). But the best is that every day there is a guest teacher explaining a way of doing things, like today there is an explanation on how to do your binding without all this bulk fabric in the end…and you can download the instructions as PDF’s and save them to your hard drive so you can take a peek again when you need it! And although I am quilting for several years now I really came across things I hadn’t a clue how to do it! So it is worth to hop over and take a peek and join in the fun!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-5340321093598069497?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/5340321093598069497/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=5340321093598069497' title='1 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/5340321093598069497'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/5340321093598069497'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/09/sew-we-quilt-stashmanicure.html' title='Sew We Quilt &amp;amp; StashManicure'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh3.ggpht.com/-DKc77ZaE1Wk/Tnne2pYXQrI/AAAAAAAAGR0/BLM_581csYo/s72-c/youreyesonlybcktoschool2_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-8617331647908678451</id><published>2011-09-20T20:21:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2011-09-26T22:36:19.986+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sjaan/DJ'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Jane'/><title type='text'>Foto’s Dear Jane</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-8fCRtkDDjKM/TnjZsBmlxiI/AAAAAAAAGRg/pJLHrPeNOlU/s1600-h/PICT0001%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0001 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="180" alt="PICT0001 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-9YHOIdEUDeA/TnjZskFYz9I/AAAAAAAAGRk/RHPTklQySX4/PICT0001%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/--ILLbxT99f8/TnjZtTWt_OI/AAAAAAAAGRo/79JmbhQjxFs/s1600-h/PICT0003%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0003 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="180" alt="PICT0003 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-UFsv6zPSogA/TnjZt045mII/AAAAAAAAGRs/OyecGBj2-Gg/PICT0003%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Ok het is gelukt! Ik heb net het laatste steekje gezet aan de 2 rijen die weer aan de vorige lap zijn toegevoegd! Nog 1 rij en zij hangt op de grond! Maar het begint wat te worden! Wel merk ik dat het nog best moeilijk is om al die blokjes netjes recht onder elkaar te krijgen, ook al zet ik, over de hele lengte van de sashing, streepjes op de kruispuntjes! Dus dat wordt nog een leuk klusje met quilten straks, nette rechte lijnen quilten! Ach, het scheelt het is MIJN quilt! Beter gedaan als perfekt!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;Ok, it is done! I just added the last stitch into the 2 next rows, which I attached to the larger piece of 5 rows I have done before! One more row and the top is hanging on the ground! It is starting to come together! It is still difficult to get nice straite stitching lines and have the blocks all nicely straite under one another. Even with added marks to the back of the sashing strip to mark the crosspoints.So that will be a hell of a job to quilt slater on and get it all straitened up nicely! Well, it still is MY quilt! Better done than perfect!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-8617331647908678451?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/8617331647908678451/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=8617331647908678451' title='6 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/8617331647908678451'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/8617331647908678451'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/09/fotos-dear-jane.html' title='Foto’s Dear Jane'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh3.ggpht.com/-9YHOIdEUDeA/TnjZskFYz9I/AAAAAAAAGRk/RHPTklQySX4/s72-c/PICT0001%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-4948267668919484796</id><published>2011-09-20T16:14:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-09-20T16:23:24.024+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Quilten'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Floppy/Flopke'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='M-BOM'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Jane'/><title type='text'>Waar blijft de tijd??? Where has time gone???</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Ja, ik vind tijd een item dat veels te snel voorbij vliegt! Nog even en we gaan weer de donkere dagen voor kerst in! Geen zomer gehad, dus elk zonnestraaltje pak ik zoveel mogelijk. Nu ik weer regelmatig Nordic Walk neem ik sinds een week ook Flopke mee. Het is even wennen voor haar om vooruit aan een langere lijn te lopen en dan ook nog niet te trekken! Geeft dus best wat stress voor die kleine, dus aan het einde, voor we naar huis lopen mag ze lekker los stoeien op het grote speelveld en heerlijk rollebollen! Nou, dat doet ze met verve! &lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-sXnbKKuApts/Tnifp9Ak1oI/AAAAAAAAGRM/8vfWzS_DimM/s1600-h/PICT0044%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0044 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="180" alt="PICT0044 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-HygfFO_Cwg0/Tnifqd1PP0I/AAAAAAAAGRQ/msvrHWOd9WM/PICT0044%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; En ik? Ik GENIET!!!!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Qua quilten ben ik me helemaal toe aan het leggen op het in elkaar zetten van mijn Dear Jane en ik ben nu weer bezig met 2 rijen aan de lap van 5 te zetten, dus hopelijk heb ik morgen een lap te showen van 7 rijen als dat nog op een foto past! Verder ben ik wat bezig geweest met het in elkaar proberen te prutsen van het eerste (midden) blok van de MBOM. Nou, das nog niet simpel, ook al doe ik het op de hand! &lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-QWd3g56Ropg/TnifqyypHTI/AAAAAAAAGRU/oe9C78YQaZw/s1600-h/PICT0098%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0098 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="180" alt="PICT0098 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-XyWLUwab438/TnifrAtD3AI/AAAAAAAAGRY/l6vnxCsE9jA/PICT0098%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Omdat de kleur in het midden niet goed uit kwam en het accent anders kwam te liggen, ben ik opnieuw begonnen en heb ik het groen en ecru gewisseld van het middelste deel. Natuurlijk ligt het even stil nu ik de Dear Jane weer een stapje op weg moet helpen, maar goed als voor 15 oktober de blokken in elkaar zitten heb ik misschien ff tijd om met deze BOM verder te gaan! Ik heb maar een schema gemaakt hoeveel ik in welke tijd moet afmaken wil ik dus op 31 december de Dear Jane in elkaar hebben! Want ja, ik moet nog best ook wel wat blokken en driehoeken maken! Dan heb ik nog een jaar om hem te quilten, want februari 2013 wordt ik 50 en dan moet ie af zijn. Gelijk ook op tijd voor de grote tentoonstelling waar deze quilt voor is aangemeld, maar dat had ik al eens verteld! Vond het wel een leuk streven en het stimuleert me enorm!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Ik heb ook ff flink gespaard de laatste maanden, oa. voor EQ7, en dat heb ik mezelf vandaag cadeau gedaan, &lt;img title="image" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="240" alt="image" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-DEvqQ1K0tF4/Tnifris1OJI/AAAAAAAAGRc/h9Js7SCU_SE/image_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt; dus hopelijk komt het volgende week binnen! Gelijk maar wat extra lapjes besteld voor de MBOM (handig he, je bestelt in de USA en dan heb je gelijk nog geld over voor lapjes in vergelijking met bestellen van EQ in Nederland), want ik hou niet zo van randen die uit heel veel stukjes bestaan. Ok, één naadje kon nog wel, want anders hield ik wel héééél veel stof over! Gelukkig hadden ze nog stof van mijn Buttercup serie! Ook heb ik wat extra stof besteld in twee kleuren voor bij een Jellyrol die ik van hubby gehad had in Zutphen (Astor Manor), maar wat is het moeilijk om dan online de kleur uit te kiezen. Nu maar hopen dat het een beetje past! Ze hadden geen stof meer op voorraad om erbij te vergelijken helaas! En er is een stoffenserie uit van Lynette Anderson, die gebaseerd is op de quilt Scandanavian Christmas, die ik nog moet maken, dus daar gelijk een leuk paddenstoelen stofje van gekocht! En er is weer een nieuwe stoffenlijn uit van Fig Tree, mijn favoriete ontwerpster, dus ik heb mezelf getrakteerd op 2 charm packs. Wist je dat je daar een leuk formaat quiltje mee kunt maken? Zonder al teveel extra’s te hoeven kopen? Tja, soms is het handig om boeken speciaal voor deze pre-cuts te hebben, dan weet je gelijk wat je kopen moet om iets te kunnen maken! Dus boeken kopen scheelt ook nog geld! LOL! Maar deze projecten moeten wel even wachten natuurlijk tot na 1 Januari! Jane gaat voor!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Time flies these days or has it always been like that? Just a little while and we will have the dark days before Christmas again! Not a really summer here in Holland, so every sunray I grab with 2 hands! Now I Nordic Walk again quite regurarly I take Floppy with me on my walks and she loves it! She is already quite well educated how to keep a straite line with me, but I can see she is a bit frustrated and unsure in the end, so I always let her go loose on the playfield and have her run around like crazy and roll over too! And me? I ENJOY watching!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;For quilting I have dedicated myself to assembling my Dear Jane quilt top before the end of 2011…and I am busy right now stitching another 2 rows to the piece of 5 rows I made before! So hopefully I will have to show a picture tomorrow of the new larger piece if it fits on a pic! And in between stitching rows together I have been busy trying to make the center block of the MBOM. Not that simple I can say! I had made one piece, but the colors didn’t come out like I wanted to, so I am making it again and switched the green and cream in the star units. Now the focus is much better. Ofcourse the rest of it is on hold till I have assembled all blocks of Jane before Oct 15th., my first deadline in my sewing scedule…I like the idea of getting it finished this year so I can hand quilt the top next year and have it all finsihed by the time I will turn 50 in 2013, which will also be shortly before the expo in Bruxelles and Nantes in april/may 2013! I can say it is very motivating to have a scedule like this and a goal to work towards!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;In the meantime I have saved up some money over the last couple of months as I wanted to buy myself EQ7, which I longed for for a long time and never saw me buying it! Today I have send out the order, in which I also ordered some extra fabrics for my MBOM (as I didn’t like to have borders with many seams) and some cream solids to accompagny my jellyrol I got from hubby last June. It is difficult to find the right color online (having to compare colors on your pc screen), so hopefully this will come together nicely! And, oh my gosh, they also sold Lynette Andersons new fabric line! So I couldn’t resist and bought half a yard of toadstool fabric to go with my Scandanavian Christmas quilt, which I also need to start making in January 2012! Lots of projects on hold now! There is also a new fabric line from Fig Tree, my favo designer, so I spoiled myself and bought 2 charm packs with which you can make a lovely sized wall hanging without even having to buy lots of extra fabric! It was a pattern from one of the books for charm packs and other precuts, and it saves money knowing you can make already a nice sized quilt out of just 2 charm packs! But even these new projects have to wait till Jane has come together by end of this year! Jane first now LOL!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-4948267668919484796?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/4948267668919484796/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=4948267668919484796' title='1 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/4948267668919484796'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/4948267668919484796'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/09/waar-blijft-de-tijd-where-has-time-gone.html' title='Waar blijft de tijd???

Margo, mijn maatje van ons Simply2M blog, heeft een mooie randenquilt ontworpen voor een internet groep waar ik bij aangesloten ben. Is dus een soort van besloten patroon verspreiding. Maar ik zou IK niet zijn als ik er dan toch mijn eigen draai aan wil geven. Dus ik heb een paar dagen zitten zweten achter de PC….(wat is een randenquilt lastig ontwerpen, alles moet onderling zo kloppen!), maar ik ben eruit en door in inches te gaan werken lukte het me beter om alles goed op maat te krijgen! Ik ga mijn FQ bundel Buttercup ervoor gebruiken die manlief me kado heeft gedaan van het voorjaar en die hiervoor ook was aangeschaft en waarschijnlijk gaat deze quilt dan ook wel zo heten! Mooie naam toch voor een quilt “Buttercup”?! &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-r4pnxLO3VWo/TmaonSM0V7I/AAAAAAAAGQo/p3yYG4BVPJk/s1600-h/161%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="161" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="240" alt="161" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-yJUDQcaCHMU/Tmaon4u-F4I/AAAAAAAAGQs/nnZsl1BzJqY/161_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="159" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-NOyOWuAVamE/TmdCKMOA6PI/AAAAAAAAGRE/4vvBXxjF0fA/s1600-h/Buttercup%25255B1%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="Buttercup" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="239" alt="Buttercup" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-7rp-761ekkY/TmdCKi84QwI/AAAAAAAAGRI/kMbyk971H1s/Buttercup_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;  &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;De kleuren zijn in de quiltfoto wat harder, maar het lukte niet voldoende om de nuancering van de FQ bundel goed over te brengen in EQ. Maar dat kunnen jullie wel “vertalen” he! Wat vinden jullie ervan? Ja, eerlijk……(o ja, dit was dus die ene quilt die ik nog mocht beginnen van mezelf naast de Dear Jane)&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://craftluv.blogspot.com/search/label/M-BOM"&gt;&lt;em&gt;HERE&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt; you could have read about the M-BOM I joined. My quilt-mate from our Simply2M blog has designed a lovely borderquilt for a closed group I am in.So no umlimited distribution of the pattern I am afraid! But I would be ME if I wouldn’t turn it into my own version…., so I passed some time/nights behind the PC to make it work. And I can say Margo did a wonderful job as it is really hard work to design a border quilt. It needs to be so carefully fit together to make it all work! But I finished the job by working in inches rather than metrics and am able to start cutting into my fabrics now (ye, all prewashed already 2 weeks ago), which is the FQ bundle of FigTree Buttercup, so my quilt will porbably be called Buttercup! Sounds as a good name for a quilt! The colors of the design are not as soft as the real fabrics, but I guees you all can “translate” that can’t you? What do you think of this? Yes, honestly…..(oh and yes, this is the one quilt I was allowed to start of myself besides finishing off my Dear Jane)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-822956646970476898?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/822956646970476898/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=822956646970476898' title='5 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/822956646970476898'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/822956646970476898'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/09/m-bom.html' title='M-BOM'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh4.ggpht.com/-yJUDQcaCHMU/Tmaon4u-F4I/AAAAAAAAGQs/nnZsl1BzJqY/s72-c/161_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-9035639384685065319</id><published>2011-09-04T23:20:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2011-09-22T23:20:21.130+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Quilten'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Floppy/Flopke'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Jane'/><title type='text'>Love, Sweat &amp; Tears</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-dahHWQxBfsQ/TmK7LN3Ln2I/AAAAAAAAGP8/Jsn8kAnt8aw/s1600-h/PICT0011%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B12%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0011 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="193" alt="PICT0011 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/--ni5H1w9mFc/TmK7LhGODAI/AAAAAAAAGQA/gn2TZ03-dI8/PICT0011%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B8%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="257" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-zPAaaeogm2U/TmK6JJ6AdyI/AAAAAAAAGP0/GcxhmQP5muk/s1600-h/PICT0095%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0095 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="193" alt="PICT0095 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-nnEmHk-UqwI/TmK6Jvy4M6I/AAAAAAAAGP4/mgzKTNbOgME/PICT0095%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="257" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Op de, waarschijnlijk laatste, zomerse dag van het jaar heb ik het er lekker van genomen en heerlijk op het balkon aan mijn Dear Jane, genaamd Love, Sweat &amp;amp; Tears,&amp;nbsp; zitten naaien. Het resultaat na een dagje mag er dan ook zijn! De eerste 5 rijen zitten aan elkaar (ok, heb ik langer over gedaan natuurlijk, maar van de week waren de onderste twee er nog niet aan vast gezet immers). Best een leuk resultaat voor twee weekjes fröbelen he, want zo lang heb ik over deze 5 rijen wel gedaan. Ondertussen ook toch nog wat nieuws begonnen maar daar later meer over, want ik heb nog niks zover af dat ik wat kan laten zien! Het heeft te maken met applicatie en randenquilts (niet noodzakelijk samen)…&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;´s Middags nog lekker ff gelunched in de stad op een heerlijk terrasje en na thuis komst ben ik met Flopke nog naar het park geweest. De eerste keer weer los na haar loopsheid, dus ik dacht `die gaat helemaal los en is door het dolle heen`. Nou niks ervan hoor! Sterker nog het was net of ze weer helemaal moest ontdekken wat ze los allemaal kon en mocht! Er was een klein hondje en die daagde haar een beetje uit en ze was me daar bang van! Ze bleef mij maar in mijn rug springen, iets wat ze alleen doet als ze echt bang is, en pas toen het hondje verder ging, kwam ze tot zichzelf! Maar na een tijdje kwam ze los en vond ze het leuk om toch weer lekker het water in te gaan en daar heerlijk af te koelen en met haar werpbord te spelen. O ja, ze wilde met wat moeite ook nog wel poseren voor een sta-foto, want ja, die houden we wat bij (en nu ook eens zonder tuigje) en ze is 1 september immers al weer 2,5 jaar geworden!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-rFLzErzGgE4/TmK6KxnFWvI/AAAAAAAAGOk/n2dr5fV2Sd4/s1600-h/PICT0056%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0056 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="180" alt="PICT0056 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-PGCYy0rGiyM/TmK6LGgUPNI/AAAAAAAAGOo/3uH8PcR5pcQ/PICT0056%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-fdbjRskmuNg/TmK6Lq3CYgI/AAAAAAAAGOs/XTCXBjmzylA/s1600-h/PICT0030%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0030 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="180" alt="PICT0030 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-Uk_jOyfwyhA/TmK6MuZEnCI/AAAAAAAAGOw/IJiwOqWXmz0/PICT0030%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-s6hPCnZt2ZY/TmK6M2-MX6I/AAAAAAAAGO0/kfs5npZbP1M/s1600-h/PICT0091%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0091 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="180" alt="PICT0091 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-LxzCU4FccYw/TmK6Nd3fYnI/AAAAAAAAGO4/HqFSIIDS2FQ/PICT0091%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-KE7fIuiPHLE/TmK6N5qi5SI/AAAAAAAAGO8/qyVfuto5Y80/s1600-h/PICT0089%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0089 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="180" alt="PICT0089 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-dnRbeUYNsc0/TmK6OWC_2vI/AAAAAAAAGPA/iu6TlCumOEs/PICT0089%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;At probably the last summer day of this year I have taken advantage of the sun and sat at the balcony sewing on my Dear Jane, named Love, Sweat &amp;amp; Tears. The results are worth showing I guess! The first 5 rows are sewn together now (ok, I worked on that longer than a day, but earlier this week the bottom 2 rows were not attached yet). Quite a nice result for almost 2 weeks of sewing blocks and rows together already! In between I have started on a new project aswell, but I will have to tell you later about that as I am not yet that far that I can show you something nice already! It has to do with&amp;nbsp; applique and borderquilts (not necessary together)…&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;In the afternoon we went to grab a lunch outdoors in town on such a nice sunny square with lots of restaurants. Outside areas ofcourse are popular! After coming back I took Flopke to the parc and let her play again and swim without a leash. For the first time after her heat has ended 10 days ago. I thought she would be excited and running around like crazy, but she did nothing like it! It seams as if she needed to discover the freedom of walking, on her own and being able to go where she wanted without me, again.There was a little dog and she teased Flopke a bit to come and play, but Flopke crawled almost in me and jumped on my back in fear (that is her sign for being really frightened), and only when the dog walked away she came to herself again. After a while she started to like it more and I could make her go swim and play in the water with her throwing board. Good to cool off! Ok, she was also willing to stand still so I could make a picture of her again, as we try to keep that up to date, and last September 1st. she reached the age of 2,5 years young! &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-9035639384685065319?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/9035639384685065319/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=9035639384685065319' title='0 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/9035639384685065319'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/9035639384685065319'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/09/love-sweat-tears.html' title='Love, Sweat &amp;amp; Tears'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh3.ggpht.com/--ni5H1w9mFc/TmK7LhGODAI/AAAAAAAAGQA/gn2TZ03-dI8/s72-c/PICT0011%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B8%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-696543374059380432</id><published>2011-09-02T10:34:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2011-09-03T10:34:14.103+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Quilten'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='BOM'/><title type='text'>BOM 2012 Verleidelijke Vormen/Tempting Shapes</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-Q2qShqZXoFU/TmEvjMwYC-I/AAAAAAAAGN8/q8FA8gYst54/s1600-h/image%25255B3%25255D.png"&gt;&lt;img title="image" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="240" alt="image" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-HfBozligNhM/TmEvjteKeMI/AAAAAAAAGOA/HXXpIq8fyzI/image_thumb%25255B1%25255D.png?imgmax=800" width="167" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Ja, jullie zullen het niet geloven, maar de kogel is al door de kerk! Over de yahoo groepslijsten kreeg ik op mijn oproepje hele leuke enthousiaste reakties! Het gaat dus een jaar van mini quiltjes worden met elke maand een nieuwe techniek. Zelfs als je denkt iets te kunnen, kan het misschien wel op een andere, makkelijkere manier, dus het uitproberen waard, vooral als het project klein en overzichtelijk blijft! Dus vandaar dat ik weer de maat van de quilthuisjes heb aangehouden! &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-XJI7fgCisOQ/TmHmfM3f22I/AAAAAAAAGOE/AtaiZ5SDrBw/s1600-h/JanuariFT4.png"&gt;&lt;img title="Januari FT" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="218" alt="Januari FT" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-dmFlj0DShAg/TmHmfxaPiXI/AAAAAAAAGOI/nT4jQdGkVpU/JanuariFT_thumb4.png?imgmax=800" width="179" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-4pdQg5WR95E/TmHmgovjl9I/AAAAAAAAGOM/uYhpsmrkufA/s1600-h/MaartCW2.png"&gt;&lt;img title="Maart CW" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="219" alt="Maart CW" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-kLE2uDXA-ww/TmHmhQUDHII/AAAAAAAAGOQ/U658C0H5MW0/MaartCW_thumb2.png?imgmax=800" width="177" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;En wat voor technieken gaan we dan zoal doen, vragen jullie je gelijk af? Nou, dat zijn dus de diverse aparte vormen als applecore, clamshell, tumbler etc. En daarnaast (dat wissel ik af dus) dan technieken als back basting applique, applique met de eilandjes methode, fabric folding (oftewel origami met stof), cathedral window vouwen en bedenk er zo nog maar een paar. Dus als jullie op dit gebied wensen hebben, maak ze nu kenbaar, dit is je kans! Dan kan ik me erin verdiepen en opnemen in het jaarprogramma! Email mij op &lt;a href="simply2m@gmail.com"&gt;simply2@gmail.com&lt;/a&gt; of laat hier een berichtje achter!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Yes, you won’t believe me, but the bullet has gone through church! In some of my yahoo groups I have received enthousiastic responses to this idea, so I descided that this would be it! So small quilts (approximately 10”x12”), that won’t turn into UFO’s, and every month a different shape or technique! Even if you think you do know how to do it there is always a different way to do it and it is good to learn as you go! So think about applecores, clamshells, tumblers, back basting applique, Island building applique, fabric folding (or fabric origami), cathedral window folding and think of some more. So if you think now “I wish she would do this or that technique or shape” this is your chance! Let me know asap, so I can explore the possibilities and take it up into the programme!

Ik heb nl. nog drie afleveringen te gaan van mijn Celtic BOM en ben dus al druk bezig om iets nieuws te verzinnen, maar ja, waar is behoefte aan? Iets m.b.t. de seizoenen? Of juist dieren? En willen jullie dan vooral applicatie/stitchery of juist een mix van diverse technieken en piecing? Ja, hoe bepaal je nu waar je een jaar lang eens aan gaat werken? Dus mijn vraag aan jullie is heel makkelijk: wat zouden jullie volgend jaar graag eens als patroon langs willen zien komen? Diverse mini quiltjes met aparte vormen misschien? Denken jullie eens hardop met me mee aub! Je kunt dat doen door mij een mail te sturen op &lt;a href="mailto:craftluv@gmail.com"&gt;craftluv@gmail.com&lt;/a&gt;of hier een berichtje bij achter laten! Alvast heel erg bedankt voor jullie input!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-MvI8ew3Tgio/TmAQfd6ELLI/AAAAAAAAGNc/EXWjh6hPy5w/s1600-h/PICT0295%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B7%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img alt="PICT0295 (Small)" border="0" height="155" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-fbGems8qz74/TmAQf8kdtvI/AAAAAAAAGNg/bito1Z2suwY/PICT0295%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-width: 0px; display: inline;" title="PICT0295 (Small)" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-th_LUfpc-fo/TmASMtN9PSI/AAAAAAAAGNk/VDvYQkZcE1Y/s1600-h/PICT0001%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B7%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img alt="PICT0001 (Small)" border="0" height="155" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-wslfgVsnPMQ/TmAQgHQ1qbI/AAAAAAAAGNo/edVIJOFn2Yg/PICT0001%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-width: 0px; display: inline;" title="PICT0001 (Small)" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-NhPFPzZw2lw/TmAQgwIEWlI/AAAAAAAAGNs/ZIhCk3N51T4/s1600-h/cathedral%252520window%252520workshop%252520Yvonne%25255B8%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img alt="cathedral window workshop Yvonne" border="0" height="157" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-8rGKdxwVZnc/TmAQhQ01onI/AAAAAAAAGNw/HoFIYu3bRzc/cathedral%252520window%252520workshop%252520Yvonne_thumb%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-width: 0px; display: inline;" title="cathedral window workshop Yvonne" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-fDipRGwac70/TmAQh5V2YyI/AAAAAAAAGN0/pIR_WbS50FU/s1600-h/folded%252520flowers%252520workshop%25255B7%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img alt="folded flowers workshop" border="0" height="155" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-T3kOj_aKfMI/TmAQiOoj-wI/AAAAAAAAGN4/3I6yacqNo4g/folded%252520flowers%252520workshop_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-width: 0px; display: inline;" title="folded flowers workshop" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-6909184366449593752?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/6909184366449593752/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=6909184366449593752' title='2 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/6909184366449593752'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/6909184366449593752'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/09/feedback-gevraagd_02.html' title='Feedback gevraagd!'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh5.ggpht.com/-fbGems8qz74/TmAQf8kdtvI/AAAAAAAAGNg/bito1Z2suwY/s72-c/PICT0295%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-4462778297657016971</id><published>2011-09-01T00:45:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2011-09-02T00:50:29.667+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Celtic BOM 2011'/><title type='text'>Celtic BOM- September = Mabon</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://members.upc.nl/r.bootsma/Designs/CBOM09.pdf"&gt;&lt;img title="mabon" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: block; border-left-width: 0px; float: none; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border-right-width: 0px" height="258" alt="mabon" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-RTmyeinN4mw/TmAK_PB841I/AAAAAAAAGM8/_F4MLNjFmjw/mabon5.jpg?imgmax=800" width="210" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Mabon is het feest van de tweede oogst (vruchten ed.)en de herfst equinox (noordelijk halfrond).In de patroonbeschrijving heb ik ook twee plaatjes toegevoegd van een cornucopia, wat heel goed past bij Mabon, als eventueel stitchery patroontje.

Alleen al de kleuren van alle kruiden die je daar zo op straat in grote zakken tegen komt!

Ik ben dus gek op oosterse, geometrische motieven en het kleurgebruik! Ja, ik weet het, het is nog niet veel te zien in mijn werk, maar dat komt denk ik ook doordat ik zo’n breed interesseveld heb, oftewel zoveel MOOI vind! Maar OOIT komt er die veel belovende oosterse quilt aan de muur te hangen! Juist in deze tijd van het Suikerfeest ben ik daar altijd in gedachten veel mee bezig. In onze multi-culti samenleving merk je toch de invloeden om je heen en leeft het voor mij dan in die periode weer wat sterker! Vaak heb ik dan ook de drang om heerlijk Marokaans te koken en te smullen, want het is heel lekker en zeker niet scherp eten! Jammie! Of weer eens lekker over de Oosterse markt in Beverwijk te struinen! Dus vandaar de nieuwe pimp op dit blog! De header bestaat voorlopig uit mijn eigen decoratie spulletjes…..afkomstig uit Tanger, Spanje (Alhambra) en Groningen!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Nu weer even terug naar de hobby! Zoals beloofd nog wat foto’s van AFFO’s en WIPS! Eindelijk is mijn belofte ingelost en heeft ons quilthuisje een bewoonster in de vorm van dit kleine applecore quiltje. De opvolgster is al in de maak met het clamshell patroon. Ik vind deze aparte vormen zich erg lenen voor dit soort kleine quiltjes! &lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-_XgIuc8WZxo/Tl40DSNWhjI/AAAAAAAAGKs/OXgw8a2PwUM/s1600-h/PICT2051%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT2051 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="139" alt="PICT2051 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-4Rwm4xSLYg8/Tl40EGwSujI/AAAAAAAAGKw/P1_LXh9_YMA/PICT2051%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="185" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-jnFGoyRRyv0/Tl40EoL02uI/AAAAAAAAGK0/x165mnySWBY/s1600-h/PICT2050%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT2050 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="140" alt="PICT2050 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-S4CGw8KAwp0/Tl40FAcMT6I/AAAAAAAAGK4/YauQJXnyoiE/PICT2050%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="187" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Leuk om te maken en vlug klaar! Daarnaast had ik al enige tijd wat mislukte blokken aan mijn design wand hangen en die heb ik nu in elkaar genaaid tot een speelkussen voor mijn vriendin haar kleinkind. Ja, ze weet dat niet alles helemaal kloppend is, maar dat was een flinke snijfout in de ontwerpfase bij het bijsnijden van de blokken. Erg vierkant werden ze er echter niet van! En ze vond het niet zo erg voor een speelkleed, dus toch maar afgemaakt met deze blokken!&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-23uVC4Y7o78/Tl40GyeuJbI/AAAAAAAAGLY/fBldjVSFGXw/s1600-h/marga%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="marga (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="185" alt="marga (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-_6Oh8IxjK00/Tl40HRRDqZI/AAAAAAAAGLc/X5VpjG8tDVk/marga%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="247" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Lekker dekbedje erin en de kleine ligt zalig zacht te spelen straks in de box! Ook heb ik de laatste weken gewerkt aan mijn borduurlap:&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-bFIeAGLHHJs/Tl44D89OdeI/AAAAAAAAGMM/bDWeZOh0-Nk/s1600-h/26082011%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="26082011 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-left: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-bottom: 0px" height="180" alt="26082011 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-q70sfrA4TkY/Tl44EcdO9iI/AAAAAAAAGMQ/njBrD4Grhgg/26082011%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Hij vordert gestaag he! Maar ik ben nog steeds niet helemaal zeker van het kleurgebruik, maar laat het wel zo! &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;O ja, Sjaan kwam nog langs gisteren (en ik heb de afgelopen dagen dus hard gewerkt om haar wat te showen) en na lekker van het heerlijke, zoete honinggebak gesmuld te hebben en de lekkere mint thee, kwamen de blokjes op tafel: &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-kl5_iYM7mpg/Tl424GvAXQI/AAAAAAAAGMA/HadQklKrgfo/s1600-h/PICT0002%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B9%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0002 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="188" alt="PICT0002 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-TCn-tPjw5d8/Tl424j-jbLI/AAAAAAAAGME/sRMNEyjn5JQ/PICT0002%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="251" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-c9He5MS1shA/Tl40IHdWa7I/AAAAAAAAGL4/ORcce1YKz0U/s1600-h/PICT0003%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0003 (Small)" style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="190" alt="PICT0003 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-oHPkEt_m2zA/Tl40I8otQAI/AAAAAAAAGL8/oNfZYFpwMmo/PICT0003%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="253" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; De eerste drie rijen zitten al aan elkaar en de D en E rij moeten er nog tegenaan gezet worden, dus vandaag ben ik bezig met sashings aftekenen, zodat ik vanavond lekker onderuit op de bank ze eraan kan zetten! Ik hou geen TATW schema aan in de blok kleuren, dus het geheel wordt lekker scrappy maar wel met 19e eeuw reproductie stofjes voor de sfeer. Eindelijk begint zich een quilt te vormen!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;No I am not islamic, but I have experienced quite a bit of its influence as a teenager. Even went to Tanger (north Marocco) twice and have very special memories of these times! If I just think of all the colours of the herbs that are sold, out on the streets there….The fact that I have seen this totally other world at such a young age has influenced my taste creatively. I just love oriental, geometric patterns and have fallen in love with the colour designs! Ye, it doesn’t show much in my work recently, but I am still dreaming of this one masterpiece of oriental design that will once hang at my wall! In this time of the Sugarfestival it all relives again and I am more passionate about it. That’s why the design of this blog has changed. The background is so really ME too! Just see my header, which is a picture of my own decorative stuff, coming from Tanger, Spain (Alhambra) and even Groningen in the Netherlands!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Well back to our hobby! Finally I kept my promiss and made a small quilt for our wooden quilthouse.I loved the applecore pattern and even started with the clamshell also, so i could switch once in a while.These special forms are really nice to make a small quilt with to practise. It was done in no time! And I have had some orphan blocks hanging on my deisgn wall for some time. I have miscut them after sewing them. It was ment for a babyquilt for my friend’s granddaughter. So I consulted her if she was really going to look closely to the quiltmaking, because I had made this mistake with squaring the blocks up. She promissed she wouldn’t and that is wasn’t so bad for a playquilt and well used! So off I went and put it all together. It became a nice cheery square quiltcushion in which she can tuck a blanket, so the baby will lay soft on the hard floor.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;I also had Jane over for a visit yesterday, so last weekend I worked hard to be able to show her some progress. After we had mint thee with some honey biscuits (you have to eat some sweet during the Sugarfestival isn’t it?) we started the show and tell! It sure was fun to unfold the bigger piece of three rows and even be able to show 2 more rows, that will have to be attached later on. I am not working with any kind of coloursceme, so it will all be very scrappy in CW repros.The quiltcenter is finally coming together! So I am off to draw some more sewing lines on the sashings!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-6039130303606152578?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/6039130303606152578/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=6039130303606152578' title='4 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/6039130303606152578'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/6039130303606152578'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/08/sjaan-op-het-suikerfeest.html' title='Sjaan op het Suikerfeest'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh5.ggpht.com/-A0l-UijHjyw/Tl40Cx0XVlI/AAAAAAAAGKo/O4IaH24wSqI/s72-c/InlineRepresentation9bb44375-8db8-4f00-b6af-77cc1d9d3b7a.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-1717097580511334714</id><published>2011-08-30T23:22:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-08-30T23:22:40.158+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Quilten'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Jane'/><title type='text'>Long time no see!</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Ja, jullie hebben gelijk! Ik heb de PC iets teveel afgezworen afgelopen maand! Dus bloggen kwam er niet echt van. Ik heb wel veel gedaan, maar het is nu donker, dus de foto’s komen morgen BELOOFD! &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Ik heb mijn Dear Jane officieel aangemeld voor de expo in Brussel in mei 2013. Het moest iets officiëler, want de organisatrices wilden een schatting maken hoeveel quilts er zouden komen te hangen en dus hoe groot de ruimte zou moeten zijn om die op te kunnen hangen. Dus ik kan nu niet echt meer terug, tenzij er iets onoverkomelijks gebeurd, maar daar ga ik niet vanuit. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Dus ben ik met goede moed (eerst tegenzin ja) begonnen met het aan elkaar zetten van alle blokken in rijen. Ik ben nu al tot rij E gekomen, dus nog 13-5=8 te gaan! De eerste drie zitten ook al aan elkaar, maar de andere twee moeten nog aan dit stuk gezet worden. Ik naai wat steekjes af de laatste dagen, zelfs weer op de bank! Flopke probeert wel af en toe nog tussen mij en mijn naaldje te kruipen, maar dan moet ze op de grond. Eén keer een naald inslikken is wel genoeg he! Dus morgen foto’s als het lukt (is een lange lap in de breedte!), evenals van mijn andere twee AFFO’s en borduurwerk…..&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Yes, you are right! I have neglected the PC a little too much last month! So hardly any blogging aswell. I have done quite a few things, but it is dark now, so pictures will come tomorrow PROMISED!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;I also have made an official promiss for sending in my Dear Jane to the expo in Bruxelles in may 2013. It had to be a little bit more official as the people, who organise it, needed to know how many quilts will have to be displayed, so they can calculate the space they need and rent an exhibition room for it all. So I am hooked!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;I started sewing the blocks together and now three rows are joined and 2 others are made into rows and need to be added to the bigger top. I am stitching a lot of stitches these days and Floppy even allows me to do it on the couch. Sometimes she still tries to come in between me and my needle, but that is the point of going on the ground, as one time swallowing a needle is enough! So tomorrow some pictures of the rows and also of 2 other finished objects that I recently made into quilts and an update of my hand embroidery piece!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-1717097580511334714?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/1717097580511334714/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=1717097580511334714' title='0 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/1717097580511334714'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/1717097580511334714'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/08/long-time-no-see.html' title='Long time no see!'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-8404353823266094525</id><published>2011-08-04T15:43:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-08-04T16:02:58.410+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Floppy/Flopke'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Algemeen'/><title type='text'>Zalig!

Van de week ben ik veel met Flopke naar het park geweest en heb daar lekker met haar gespeeld! Ook heb ik er een filmpje van gemaakt:   &lt;div class="wlWriterEditableSmartContent" id="scid:5737277B-5D6D-4f48-ABFC-DD9C333F4C5D:1a98bfec-7746-4b8c-8afd-7f5acf6ed40b" style="padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; float: none; padding-bottom: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-top: 0px"&gt;&lt;div id="5506b037-b325-4251-944b-431ccc963b67" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; display: inline;"&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ft696JBLxE" target="_new"&gt;&lt;img src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-IwdGtT0flII/TjqmMmI8nYI/AAAAAAAAGIc/9uObHBslI3k/video8120d212184d%25255B5%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-style: none" galleryimg="no" onload="var downlevelDiv = document.getElementById('5506b037-b325-4251-944b-431ccc963b67'); downlevelDiv.innerHTML = &amp;quot;&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&amp;lt;object width=\&amp;quot;386\&amp;quot; height=\&amp;quot;323\&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;param name=\&amp;quot;movie\&amp;quot; value=\&amp;quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/_Ft696JBLxE&amp;amp;hl=en\&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;\/param&amp;gt;&amp;lt;embed src=\&amp;quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/_Ft696JBLxE&amp;amp;hl=en\&amp;quot; type=\&amp;quot;application/x-shockwave-flash\&amp;quot; width=\&amp;quot;386\&amp;quot; height=\&amp;quot;323\&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;\/embed&amp;gt;&amp;lt;\/object&amp;gt;&amp;lt;\/div&amp;gt;&amp;quot;;" alt=""&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; Daarnaast werk ik sinds kort ook weer eens met lijstjes en schrijf ik alles op wat ik op een dag tegen kom om even te moeten doen. En het werkt goed! Ik vergeet veel minder en er komt veel meer uit mijn handen en dus minder frustraties! En dat geeft veel voldoening! Zo is mijn scootmobiel ook weer gemaakt en kan ik er dus weer veilig op uit met Flopke, zoals je kon zien!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Gisteren zag ik op TV (bij “je echte leeftijd”) dat als je wilt afvallen je vooral eerst moet zorgen dat je hoofd leeg is en dat krijg je voor elkaar als je huis schoon is en op orde, dus niet rommelig! En bij mijn geldt daarbij dan nog dat ik controle moet hebben over mijn leven in de vorm dus van die lijstjes, zodat ik niet zoveel vergeet. Nu dus vanmorgen weer begonnen met Nordic Walken en het voelde zo goed! Echt heerlijk weer om buiten te zijn en vooral te sporten! Dit is dan mijn uitzicht:&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-85N15Tls6Bs/Tjqh7cfq2uI/AAAAAAAAGIA/iS86iLrmOZ4/s1600-h/PICT0741Small5.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0741 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="138" alt="PICT0741 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-5cx71TIo-HE/Tjqh8LMtvXI/AAAAAAAAGIE/IJC2XEnnUmg/PICT0741Small_thumb3.jpg?imgmax=800" width="179" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-mwYv2y6LihQ/Tjqh8SQQn8I/AAAAAAAAGII/nXsVpSV-L84/s1600-h/PICT0791Small4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT0791 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="139" alt="PICT0791 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-p7KUGAF6_ZE/Tjqh9K37PXI/AAAAAAAAGIM/BSxkJlazUP8/PICT0791Small_thumb2.jpg?imgmax=800" width="183" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-8404353823266094525?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/8404353823266094525/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=8404353823266094525' title='2 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/8404353823266094525'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/8404353823266094525'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/08/zalig-de-zon.html' title='Zalig!

En alles in mijn lievelings kleur!&amp;nbsp; &lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-fvBzNhxetHg/TjPx8nxfRLI/AAAAAAAAGGc/MzNwDe0HIjs/s1600-h/PICT2031%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT2031 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="242" alt="PICT2031 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-kQZmENQi7gY/TjPx9HsSYrI/AAAAAAAAGGg/izSa265C_sM/PICT2031%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="182" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-uR1NgwFFi1w/TjPx9R0RnlI/AAAAAAAAGGk/1D59PqXRcrY/s1600-h/PICT2046%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B7%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT2046 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="242" alt="PICT2046 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-J2Iq33ELBkg/TjPx99iPw_I/AAAAAAAAGGo/pEJ721MZmX4/PICT2046%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="182" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Hier nog wat details foto’s:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-a9USByG2AEk/TjPzheeFITI/AAAAAAAAGHQ/0Yo5Fyv8dE8/s1600-h/PICT2043%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B10%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT2043 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="150" alt="PICT2043 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-phSRTenshEs/TjPx-4-PW3I/AAAAAAAAGHU/jYWlvq8_zvk/PICT2043%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B8%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="184" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-1S_XiQOG_TM/TjPx_FANfxI/AAAAAAAAGHY/u9Y-c1AcVpw/s1600-h/PICT2037%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B11%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT2037 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="150" alt="PICT2037 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-bFfrlavQCiQ/TjPx_nPm7zI/AAAAAAAAGHc/1aTTZh8J0Go/PICT2037%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B9%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="187" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-ixqCVwXqHiw/TjPyANUgeDI/AAAAAAAAGHg/TTZQyqwUOJ8/s1600-h/PICT2038%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B9%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT2038 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="149" alt="PICT2038 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-CM7cmtV-6w8/TjPyAsM8MGI/AAAAAAAAGHk/v7FzxQzNfys/PICT2038%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B7%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="185" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-r9bgyVGFdfM/TjPyBMpewMI/AAAAAAAAGHo/OPRUTm8nLwM/s1600-h/PICT2033%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B8%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img title="PICT2033 (Small)" style="border-top-width: 0px; display: inline; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px" height="149" alt="PICT2033 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-YlT1KQHwZRg/TjPyBoy6fXI/AAAAAAAAGHs/aj15u3BCQIk/PICT2033%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="188" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;That I come from a creative family was common knowledge, but if you see another piece or art coming out of one’s hands, you are stunned and silent again! Last week I got this beautiful sewing box from my mom. It is all scrapped together and she used most of the old things she had in her own sewing box, so I have her old thimble, from which I remember her sewing dozens of clothes for us kids with! And lots of other old pieces, like the name-label of my favorite granny, whom I am named after. And some old ricrac and even an antique card with special pressing buttons and last but not least: an old bobbin from her own old Singer, which she still sews on and is about 50 years of age! And everything in made with favorite colour!A real heritage!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-8930170288946676134?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/8930170288946676134/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=8930170288946676134' title='3 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/8930170288946676134'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/8930170288946676134'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/07/erfstukje.html' title='Erfstukje'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh4.ggpht.com/-H0QjZFdxhQI/TjPx8CN8fUI/AAAAAAAAGGY/QEyBE_VnqHo/s72-c/PICT2030%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-6982051916839786531</id><published>2011-07-15T13:36:00.004+02:00</published><updated>2011-07-30T02:45:22.306+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Floppy/Flopke'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Borduren'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Algemeen'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Hexagons'/><title type='text'>Back online!</title><content type='html'>Eindelijk is het zover! We zijn weer terug van weg geweest! Het onderhoud aan de PC is gelukt! Er moet nog wel de nodige software geladen worden, maar dat doe ik wel af en toe tussendoor. Ik heb nl. wel geleerd van deze twee weken geen PC dat ik echt te veel achter dat ding zat! En daardoor ook een stuk vermoeidheid verklaard kan worden. En ja, daar wil ik niet naar terug, dus wat doe je dan? Juist ja, de wekker zetten als ik achter de PC ga. Een uurtje op en een uurtje af! Zo kom ik ook weer eens aan andere dingen toe, zoals borduren en lekker met Flopke naar buiten:&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-eSkGISOAaxA/TiAmCsdMcJI/AAAAAAAAGDg/xchUsTPh4mE/s1600-h/foto%252527s%252520juni%252520juli%2525202011%252520063%25255B3%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img alt="foto's juni juli 2011 063" border="0" height="159" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-AVtrGUPrXNE/TiAmDB5mVtI/AAAAAAAAGDk/SZAuf2Wa9-w/foto%252527s%252520juni%252520juli%2525202011%252520063_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="foto's juni juli 2011 063" width="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; en zelf weer Nordic Walken! Want dat heb ik de afgelopen weken weer opgepakt en het werpt echt al zijn vruchten af! Ok, je loopt er ook een stevige verkoudheid door op, maar goed, dat zal ook wel weer slijten! Weerstand moet duidelijk hierop ingesteld worden LOL! En misschien moet het eindelijk eens zomer worden?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-wfdf_RmIohw/TiAmDkSbk3I/AAAAAAAAGDo/h6DfYFxQaSY/s1600-h/PICT0107%25255B3%25255D.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img alt="PICT0107" border="0" height="180" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-FGr_qc-Opfw/TiAmEdeHF1I/AAAAAAAAGDs/1tJhtfmIC2o/PICT0107_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-color: -moz-use-text-color; border-style: none; border-width: 0px; display: inline;" title="PICT0107" width="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Over borduren gesproken, ik heb nu de ene kleur af van het grote borduurwerk: Eerst had ik de cirkels die midden over lopen in de lichte kleur gedaan, maar ik vond dat toch niet echt mooi worden, dus uitgehaald en opnieuw met de donkere kleur gedaan. De inhoud van de cirkels gaat nu wel met de lichtere kleur geborduurd worden. Ik vind hem zelf wel erg mooi geworden tot nu toe! Maar ja, ik ben ook erg gek op dit soort patronen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-v3CxA8HajGo/TiAmFIixulI/AAAAAAAAGDw/Ucni2KCVmbU/s1600-h/Varia%252520Hex%252520150711%25255B3%25255D.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Varia Hex 150711" border="0" height="180" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-ze_n5vycJ2Q/TiAmFXnUAZI/AAAAAAAAGD0/DOCU89yRyus/Varia%252520Hex%252520150711_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-color: -moz-use-text-color; border-style: none; border-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="Varia Hex 150711" width="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Daarnaast heb ik ook gewerkt aan de VariaHex. Leuk wordt het als geheel he?! Ok, nog niet al teveel in elkaar gezet, maar dat komt vanzelf wel. Het hoeft immers ook niet allemaal in een maand af he! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-tkkNxY83eJ8/TiAmGV-TaCI/AAAAAAAAGD4/y8wbEsaRFUs/s1600-h/PICT0070%25255B5%25255D.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img alt="PICT0070" border="0" height="161" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-B8mpvK4kuZk/TiAmHAgW5FI/AAAAAAAAGD8/JNiKeGaKxBY/PICT0070_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-color: -moz-use-text-color; border-style: none; border-width: 0px; display: inline;" title="PICT0070" width="209" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-gML-Kyy3bu0/TiAmHjMx5JI/AAAAAAAAGEA/mE8AIrKPRlM/s1600-h/PICT0071%25255B6%25255D.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img alt="PICT0071" border="0" height="163" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-2GakZA76nC0/TiAmIPjk1cI/AAAAAAAAGEE/dIolVZ4TJJ0/PICT0071_thumb%25255B4%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-color: -moz-use-text-color; border-style: none; border-width: 0px; display: inline;" title="PICT0071" width="210" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Daarnaast hebben Flopke en ik afgelopen zondag dus ons examen gedaan voor de cursus Gehoorzame Hond II. En ja, we zijn geslaagd! Ok, geen vlag uit, maar ik ben er wel bijzonder trots op. En dan vooral omdat ik toch maar mooi weer de controle aan het terug krijgen ben die ik kwijt was door mijn hersenbloeding. Flopke luistert echt goed, ondanks de spanning afgelopen zondag tussen honden en bazen. Zelf was ik dit keer nu eens niet extra veel gespannen. Ik wist goed wat ik met haar kon en had er alle vertrouwen in dat ze gewoon goed zou luisteren. Ok, soms liet ze zich weer van haar leuke kant zien en bij het terug komen op bevel nam ze even een D-tour over het veld. Inwendig lag ik echt in een deuk! Ze liet gewoon zien dat het wat haar betreft wel genoeg was geweest, al die stress! Maar ze kwam echt in één lijn recht op me af tussen al die honden door! En SPRINTEN…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;En toen volgde de diploma uitreiking! Apetrots was ik op mezelf en op Flopke met haar guitige streken&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-tNLCXSQssBQ/TiAmI8l0-CI/AAAAAAAAGEI/0yNdEQaX64I/s1600-h/PICT0087%25255B8%25255D.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img alt="PICT0087" border="0" height="251" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-CsEKV9BaCrw/TiAmJEvgNnI/AAAAAAAAGEM/MMd5WpCqSFo/PICT0087_thumb%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-color: -moz-use-text-color; border-style: none; border-width: 0px; display: inline;" title="PICT0087" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Hier ging het om...nou ja?&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-Y_L5io2yCtw/TiAmJ4w2KfI/AAAAAAAAGEQ/CVboiB3ltkE/s1600-h/PICT0092%25255B8%25255D.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img alt="PICT0092" border="0" height="251" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-aufvoABHgZI/TiAmKp_DeRI/AAAAAAAAGEU/mk6_Nq7tK2E/PICT0092_thumb%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-color: -moz-use-text-color; border-style: none; border-width: 0px; display: inline;" title="PICT0092" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Apetrots!&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img alt="PICT0098" border="0" height="320" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-EtEOf6iRASk/TiAmLuauwwI/AAAAAAAAGEc/SvJCkC4Z2Fo/PICT0098_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-color: -moz-use-text-color; border-style: none; border-width: 0px; display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="PICT0098" width="240" /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Flopke keurt haar diploma - lekker!&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-4zptK-1SidM/TiAmMAvj6aI/AAAAAAAAGEg/hAm8IGfBdX8/s1600-h/PICT0109%25255B3%25255D.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img alt="PICT0109" border="0" height="240" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-gOgYml3zdW0/TiAmMnVA0rI/AAAAAAAAGEk/THpODGryOd8/PICT0109_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-color: -moz-use-text-color; border-style: none; border-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="PICT0109" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;WALL of FAME&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;i&gt;Finally we made it back ONLINE! The PC is repaired, but still I need to load lots of software. But that can wait. One thing I learned from this break is: I spend way to much time at the PC. And some of my tiredness is coming from that and I don’t want to go back to it! So my time at the PC is limited now. On hour on and one hour at least off! That way I have time for other things aswell, like playing with Flopke in the parc. I also stared Nordic Walking (with poles) and it is already a great succes. My diabetes is better regulated by it! I also finished the darker colour of my hand embroidery work cirque des cercles.The inner part will be done in a lighter colour. And I also worked on my VariaHex and have finished some already. Besides that I have loads of baggies filled with pre cut hexies to sew!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Besides all that I have passed my exam together with Flopke last sunday. It was obedience class II. We can continue with GG if we like, but we don’t. For me passing this exam ment a lot, as it was a momento which showed that I am getting back in control of my life after my CVA (stroke), back in February. I wasn’t stressed out a lot as I knew that I was in control of Floppy and she would obey me without a doubt. Ok, she was herself during the exam and when the instructor held her firm to send her off to me, she went straite to me and took a D-tour from there! See her running? But despite this we passed!I am so proud of my little, grown girl! I showed her our certificate and she wanted to eat it right away! But I saved it and now we have our own small &lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;HALL OF FAME (see pic). Now we need to descide what next! Our aquility demand isn’t honoured!

Reageren gaat ook wel, maar echt bestanden versturen kan ik niet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;It is almost that far and July is starting! In this month there isn't a special celebration for pagans, so I have explained this month a symbol, the moon. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;You can find the patterns, as always, on our &lt;a href="http://simply2m.blogspot.com/"&gt;Simply2M blog (klik).&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;If you experience any problems there downloading, please hop over to&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href="http://members.chello.nl/r.bootsma/indexeng.htm"&gt;&lt;em&gt;my website (click)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt; and click on the button in the left bar there named "free designs" to go to the Celtic BOM page, or hop over to see what I made of it recently as I gave it a new look!

Om 11.45 zouden we gaan kijken bij de demonstratie van de Funny O. , een nieuwe hondensport tak en misschien meedoen aan de workshop erna. Toen we aan kwamen was het al behoorlijk druk, want de voorbereidingen waren natuurlijk volop aan de gang.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Het eerste waar Flopke, ons bruine labrador teefje, naar toe wilde was de blauwe schelp-kinderzwembadje, gevuld met BALLEN! Daar mocht ze er drie van uit het water vissen, maar ze vond zelf het water het lekkerste, dus eerst lekker geslobberd en daarna was ze wel bereid om even drie ballen op de vissen. Ok, niet gelijk, de badeendjes vond ze veels te interessant en kon die echt niet laten liggen, dus daar eerst maar drie van opgevist en daarna pas de bedoelde ballen! Natuurlijk ga daarbij als hondje met vier pootjes in het zwembadje staan he, aan de kant blijven is zo raar! Ze had het er reuze naar haar zin! &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Toen zijn we even in de kantine gaan kijken waar ook wat stands stonden opgesteld ivm het beloofde slechte weer (wat gelukkig zo goed als uit bleef). Daar onze gadget bag opgehaald met leuke folders, speeltjes en brokjes voor de hond en ook een leuke honden sleutelhanger, die we gelijk in gebruik hebben genomen als decoratie van ons hondenfluitje.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-MjFVa5xhwoY/TfypJIWRHYI/AAAAAAAAF94/SpuTwEvRjFQ/s1600-h/funnyo1%25255B6%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="funnyo1" border="0" alt="funnyo1" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-RK4W979z4ZI/TfypJiqgYZI/AAAAAAAAF98/norffuEeMNE/funnyo1_thumb%25255B4%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="389" height="145" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160; Daarna was het tijd om bij de Funny O. te gaan kijken en Flopke was erg enthousiast! Dat wachten vond ze maar niks, ze wilde mee doen! Blijkbaar had ze de kunst tijdens de demonstratie al afgekeken, want ze vloog bij het begin van de workshop gelijk door de tunnel, maar een sprongetje over de hekjes waagde ze niet en liep er netjes omheen! Slalommen deed ze ook gelijk al goed en apporteren liet ze weer voor wat het was! &lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-eao9wjQ1eNA/TfypKdCGZoI/AAAAAAAAF-A/KI3emcyl__o/s1600-h/funnyo6%25255B6%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="funnyo6" border="0" alt="funnyo6" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-dIApcgD5LtM/TfypK4su_PI/AAAAAAAAF-E/CQ90IjUPMFw/funnyo6_thumb%25255B4%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="384" height="144" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Zelfs de hoge loopplank nam ze de eerste keer op haar gemakje. Bij een tweede poging gleed ze wat weg op het plastic en vond het toen wel wat eng. Toen bewust haar zelf er nog een keer overheen gestuurd, zodat ze er geen angst voor ontwikkelde en genoeg zelfvertrouwen bleef houden om het een volgende keer wel weer te durven. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Manlief had tijdens onze workshop de loterij gespekt en zelfs een petje gewonnen! Flopke confisqueerde die tijdens de lunch, dus nu is die van haar! Een heel leuk nieuw speeltje! Met een lekker broodje hamburger hebben we even wat gerust, geluisterd naar de wethouder en de opening bij gewoond, alvorens we moesten aantreden voor onze eigen discipline, de demonstratie van de GH2. Tijdens de lunch nog wat andere kramen bekeken en vooral de borduurstand had mijn interesse! Leuke handdoekjes en&amp;#160; naambadges maakt ze voor op de tuigjes! &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-Z5qJOmxc1IM/TfypLh0oQ-I/AAAAAAAAF9o/SYpS5Af8t_k/s1600-h/gh_01%25255B9%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="gh_01" border="0" alt="gh_01" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-A1t0rIALrE0/TfypMJj1rVI/AAAAAAAAF9s/OWsHnmly8nI/gh_01_thumb%25255B7%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="183" height="135" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-_mrLGYzobLc/TfypMl0lyVI/AAAAAAAAF9w/Azhk8tjDj-s/s1600-h/gh_02%25255B8%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="gh_02" border="0" alt="gh_02" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-2Lp-yGSUIhg/TfypNBWotoI/AAAAAAAAF90/qBBaMagJyK4/gh_02_thumb%25255B6%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="169" height="134" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160; Na de demonstratie, waarbij je kon merken dat de honden toch wat uit hun doen waren, want óf ze luisterden niet óf ze gingen gezamenlijk tekeer tegen de omstanders en vooral hun honden! (Doen ze anders nóóit hoor!) Al met al was het resultaat niet slecht hoor en konden de kijkers best een goede indruk krijgen wat de GH2 inhield (de hondjes luisterden dus soms echt wel), maar robots zijn honden zeker niet, dat hebben ze wederom bewezen!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Tot slot zijn we nog even wat gaan drinken van onze verdiende consumptiebon en toen vonden we het zelf wel genoeg. Dus op naar huis, maar daarbij kwamen we langs de fotograaf! Die bood aan om gratis een foto van Flopke te maken en tja, dat sla je niet af hè! Wanneer krijg je zo’n kans? Nou, Flopke liep natuurlijk weer de halve installatie omver voor ze netjes ging zitten (bleek ie gewend te zijn met labjes), maar zelfs zonder tuigje of lijn bleef ze rustig poseren, dus het is waarschijnlijk een hele leuke foto geworden….&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Pluspunt vond ik zelf dit keer vooral het zelf mee mogen doen dmv een workshop, zodat je ook zelf kunt zien of je hond iets leuk vind! En dat er ook gewoon wat voor de honden zelf te doen was! Flopke hebben we ingeschreven voor de behendigheid (ook veel toestellen en gehoorzaamheid) volgend seizoen! Nu eerst op 10 juli netjes haar GH2 diploma gaan halen! Ben nu al benieuwd naar de foto’s van deze Open Dag! Al met al dus een hele geslaagde dag en dan zijn wij nog niet eens tot het einde gebleven!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-8682821880554948225?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/8682821880554948225/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=8682821880554948225' title='1 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/8682821880554948225'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/8682821880554948225'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/06/kc-pampus-open-dag-en-30-jarig-bestaan.html' title='KC Pampus Open Dag en 30 jarig bestaan'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh3.ggpht.com/-RK4W979z4ZI/TfypJiqgYZI/AAAAAAAAF98/norffuEeMNE/s72-c/funnyo1_thumb%25255B4%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-245438270234464221</id><published>2011-06-01T00:17:00.013+02:00</published><updated>2011-06-25T00:27:24.839+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Celtic BOM 2011'/><title type='text'>Celtic BOM Juni/June</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ao6rkbYiSEk/TgUNfM3H4CI/AAAAAAAAGB0/wIcKZ-4gxaY/s1600/CBOMjuni.GIF" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left:1em; margin-right:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" width="258" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ao6rkbYiSEk/TgUNfM3H4CI/AAAAAAAAGB0/wIcKZ-4gxaY/s320/CBOMjuni.GIF" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Het is al weer JUNI! Tijd voor een nieuw patroon van de Celtic BOM! Het thema voor deze maand is de Midzomer Nacht viering rond 21 juni. En hoe de Davidsster nu verbonden is qua symboliek met deze nacht kun je allemaal lezen in de patroonbeschrijving. Ik heb er dit keer weer een uitgebreid verhaal van gemaakt!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ga voor de patronen en beschrijving naar mijn &lt;a href="http://simply2m.blogspot.com/"&gt;Simply2M (klik)&lt;/a&gt; blog om ze daar vandaan te downloaden.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;groetjes, Marianna&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;It is JUNE already! So time for a new pattern of the Celtic BOM! The theme for this month is the Midsummer Night celebration around June 21st. And how symbolicaly the Star of David is connected with this special night you can all read in the pattern description.

De leuke dingen zijn gedaan, het geld goed besteed! Wat wil een mens nog meer? We zijn woensdags naar het Quilters Palet in Den Haag geweest, waar Petra ons super heeft geholpen en Evy ziek thuis op de achtergrond advies gaf over maten van stof. Helemaal top was het! We zijn&amp;#160; goed geslaagd tot zelfs de ongeplande randstof voor de VariaHex aan toe, heb ik nu al in huis! Het is geel geworden met een groen blaadje! Ja, natuurlijk wilde ik wel iets anders doen en deze quilt echt een beetje eigen maken door andere stofjes en zelfs motiefjes verander ik aan de fleet! Van de winkel ben ik vergeten foto’s te maken, maar het is echt een aanrader om naar toe te gaan, zeker als je houdt van batiks en/of repro’s en Japans. Want ook qua Japanse stoffen kan je je hart ophalen daar! Dat heb ik dit keer maar even overgeslagen, anders had ik echt nog meer moeten pinnen…..en ja er blijft ergens een grens he! Dit was mijn buit in Den Haag (ja ook de mal voor de POTC quilt is binnen): &lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-ZXQdA1UCs04/Td5Tm46t10I/AAAAAAAAF6E/HUyl8VSOoLc/s1600-h/IMAG0151%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B5%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="IMAG0151 (Small)" border="0" alt="IMAG0151 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-84JA5mvJa8c/Td5UKP0VjII/AAAAAAAAF6I/X0SqRN_nLxY/IMAG0151%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="202" height="121" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-L5BVUeGDVj0/Td5ULm8fg8I/AAAAAAAAF6M/wNJy6HPLh84/s1600-h/IMAG0153%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B5%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="IMAG0153 (Small)" border="0" alt="IMAG0153 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-uLnHI7p8WMM/Td5UMLbQTwI/AAAAAAAAF6Q/hk3p1m-g5Mo/IMAG0153%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="202" height="121" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160; En dit kreeg ik van Petra….leuk hé:&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-ycSXyEAG_GU/Td5UMtzsUiI/AAAAAAAAF6c/sa9KgZj9vPA/s1600-h/IMAG0138%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B6%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="IMAG0138 (Small)" border="0" alt="IMAG0138 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-S82Jv_G_vi4/Td5UNfxqt3I/AAAAAAAAF6g/prSseeUU_oA/IMAG0138%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B4%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="87" height="144" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Na de winkel zijn we nog lekker door de stad gaan lopen!

Ik had daar stof besteld die uit Japan moest komen, broderie stof! Helemaal top dat ie net deze week binnen was gekomen en we dus een extra dagje eraan vast konden knopen! Zutphen is ook een leuke oude Hanzestad, dus ook weer prachtige gebouwen en stadswallen gezien!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-kVsEYVr38dc/Td5UR4XyGzI/AAAAAAAAF6k/yxmE8lCKk0Y/s1600-h/IMAG0136%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B5%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="IMAG0136 (Small)" border="0" alt="IMAG0136 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-hIfUi6xvw0o/Td5USawsXmI/AAAAAAAAF6o/Wz9bSIMUmLo/IMAG0136%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="196" height="118" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-p5uYBOhHhnw/Td5USwH4HxI/AAAAAAAAF6s/uH0Au71q414/s1600-h/IMAG0135%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B5%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="IMAG0135 (Small)" border="0" alt="IMAG0135 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-q1aRD_lRWgQ/Td5UTYfBHwI/AAAAAAAAF6w/lWf6mN5oNCM/IMAG0135%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="196" height="118" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; De winkel lag vlak achter dit plein waar ook markt was vandaag!

Het navul sewline pen pakketje kreeg ik van Bep! De jellyrol heeft manlief er maar extra bij gelegd. Het is een oude waar ik al lang gek op ben – Aster Manor van 3 Sisters van Moda! &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;En ja, al heb je nog zoveel gekocht, je blijft leuke nieuwe dingen zien in al die winkels! Zo ook vandaag: &lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-k6tLZWkL_I0/Td5UW8dS6pI/AAAAAAAAF5s/uh0C1t1yQWM/s1600-h/IMAG0131%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="IMAG0131 (Small)" border="0" alt="IMAG0131 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-r_5_8PO85e0/Td5UXbebNsI/AAAAAAAAF5w/-SNNT0dCapU/IMAG0131%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="177" height="106" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; is dit niet beeldig? En dan met oa. deze stofjes?

Het hoeft immers ook niet persé met die stofjes als ze al op zouden zijn! Zo blijven we denken, dromen en genieten van onze hobby! Voorlopig heb ik wel weer wat te doen met mijn nieuwe aanwinsten, vooral mijn draaiende roze snijmat en portable daglicht lamp vind ik geweldig! Ja, natuurlijk! Met ALLES ben ik dolgelukkig! &lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-e6pJ3IdHXHc/Td5UY5BwZZI/AAAAAAAAF58/IqFc3tiDXE4/s1600-h/IMAG0141%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="IMAG0141" border="0" alt="IMAG0141" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-qm_unLDqZtw/Td5UZUm43jI/AAAAAAAAF6A/yrIeQQAu_pc/IMAG0141_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="198" height="119" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;En wat gebeurd er dan als je thuis komt met Flopke? Nou, dan gaan we lekker zonnen en uitwaaien in het park en Flopke …die gaat ook behoorlijk stoute streken uithalen (ondanks een verbod van de baas toch in een sloot springen en er dan niet zelf meer uit kunnen komen, lang leve het hurttatuig!)&lt;em&gt; zzzz…&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/--PgNO4hvOQg/Td5cvGXqlZI/AAAAAAAAF7w/W3XuiGWY2TQ/s1600-h/IMAG0110%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="IMAG0110 (Small)" border="0" alt="IMAG0110 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-qBR5mnqY1Kw/Td5cvncMHAI/AAAAAAAAF70/qT1qrqXTaKE/IMAG0110%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="197" height="118" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-W2qUH-dsK-Y/Td5cw2yCSHI/AAAAAAAAF74/LF7iKq-wK1s/s1600-h/IMAG0126%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="IMAG0126 (Small)" border="0" alt="IMAG0126 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-tA_tgpxLZuo/Td5cxQs7DbI/AAAAAAAAF78/NHiPY0X6MPA/IMAG0126%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="197" height="118" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-rKPlmnGX4Z8/Td5cyVjP8PI/AAAAAAAAF8A/HEvSbX5kNXk/s1600-h/IMAG0120%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="IMAG0120 (Small)" border="0" alt="IMAG0120 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-keQUPbaKrsU/Td5czmcqG8I/AAAAAAAAF8E/ush_tHUtrO4/IMAG0120%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="197" height="118" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-DvKKm0l-csI/Td5c0Cv3HJI/AAAAAAAAF8I/_eyh-UF9xaU/s1600-h/IMAG0094%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B5%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="IMAG0094 (Small)" border="0" alt="IMAG0094 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-yDpQzRg-0Z0/Td5c0n1-NvI/AAAAAAAAF8M/8JlVi_Z-n1M/IMAG0094%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="197" height="118" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-eH9MfjvmUQk/Td5c1BjJ0TI/AAAAAAAAF8Q/STpwXfvFCeM/s1600-h/IMAG0113%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="IMAG0113 (Small)" border="0" alt="IMAG0113 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-K4aOsM38M1w/Td5c1c68s3I/AAAAAAAAF8U/zN0TYsSq0YU/IMAG0113%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="197" height="118" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-oPNsIq5haQc/Td5c1_BMKkI/AAAAAAAAF8Y/siyGcvbTZbs/s1600-h/IMAG0127%252520%252528Small%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="IMAG0127 (Small)" border="0" alt="IMAG0127 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-LtsMQzYsSKQ/Td5c2VdP3DI/AAAAAAAAF8c/8isSR6OszfA/IMAG0127%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="198" height="119" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;An impression of 2 days of vacation time, staying home. We went to The Hague on wednesday and today we went to Zutphen on the other side of the country. It was marvelous to see the landscape being so different in other parts of the country. We went both days to quiltshops and I am the lucky owner of a turning cutting board and a portable daylight lamp! Also lots of other gadgets and tools went home with us and I even bought the border fabric for my VariaHex quilts already (the yellow) and the sashings and cornerstones for my NI in red and white. The sashings will be with the broderie type fabric (12th. pic), but you always see new stuff too in these shops, so I went home with another wishlist and loads of impressions! Maybe one day I will make those applecore blocks! And getting home Floppy is having a blast in the parc while swimming, playing and being naughty!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-2646214564431718518?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/2646214564431718518/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=2646214564431718518' title='4 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/2646214564431718518'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/2646214564431718518'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/05/vakantie.html' title='Vakantie!'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh4.ggpht.com/-84JA5mvJa8c/Td5UKP0VjII/AAAAAAAAF6I/X0SqRN_nLxY/s72-c/IMAG0151%252520%252528Small%252529_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-3110711545120417248</id><published>2011-05-16T15:45:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-05-16T15:50:58.285+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Algemeen'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Hexagons'/><title type='text'>Mobile &amp; drugs</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Ff lachen? Ja, zo zie ik het maar gewoon hoor, want stom is gewoon STOM! Wat is er dan gebeurd? Nou vorige week, in een ijverige bui, heb ik weer eens een lading was weg gewerkt. Ok, geen hobby, maar ja, het moet toch eens gebeuren, nietwaar? Allemaal prima, totdat ik naar buiten was geweest met Flopke en daarbij, verplicht, mijn mobieltje mee ging (DH stuitert echt als ik hem vergeet!). En natuurlijk blijft zo’n broek in het park niet schoon, dus wat dacht ik? Juist ja, gelijk ook maar ff mee wassen, anders heb je morgen weer een halve mand vol! Dus lekker gedouched en verkleed en alle kleding in de wasmachine en draaien maar. Tot ik merkte dat ik nergens mijn mobiel kon vinden! Inderdaad ja, die was lekker mee in de was. Ok, maar een paar minuten (kon hem nog ontgrendelen voordat ie het hele programma afwerkte), maar wel dusdanig gewassen dat ie het niet meer deed! Gelukkig was de SIM kaart nog heel! Dus donderdag avond maar eens naar mobiele telefoonwinkel getogen. Ja, echt een super leuke klus….alleen de wachttijd al! Ok, een uur later stonden we weer buiten, na een hoop ergernis, was ik dit toestel rijker! &lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TdEqhTyBJ1I/AAAAAAAAF2M/7HwmkEXjsa8/s1600-h/PICT0108%20%28Small%29%5B7%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="PICT0108 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0108 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TdEqhpqQOcI/AAAAAAAAF2Q/yRCd3dIN9xw/PICT0108%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B5%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="198" height="149" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TdEqrnMr6YI/AAAAAAAAF2U/MkFX6wMf-Xk/s1600-h/PICT0110%20%28Small%29%5B7%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="PICT0110 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0110 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TdEqiCrfgFI/AAAAAAAAF2Y/zuiSlUVviDs/PICT0110%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B5%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="199" height="149" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Ik ben er erg blij mee, hij is veel uitgebreider als mijn vorige toestel en ik heb er nu ook allerlei widgets op zitten (foefjes) om mijn geheugen te helpen, dus minder te vergeten! Daar heb ik nu al lol van! En zelfs allerlei spelletjes waarmee ik mijn hersenfuncties ook kan trainen…. en ik kan er mee twitteren, facebooken, hyven etc. Gelukkig heb ik ook een uitgebreide bundel voor data! Anders heb je van die hoge rekeningen aan het einde van de maand! Nu niet! Ik heb er zelfs een widget op kunnen zetten die mijn gebruik bij houdt en ik wordt gewaarschuwd door de provider als 90% van mijn data verbruikt is! Nou voordat ik dát op heb gemaakt! Dus ik kan met een gerust hart ermee spelen nu! En dat doe ik! LOL! Ach da’s het nieuwe van een speeltje he!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Ondertussen blijf ik ook nog lekker spelen met mijn nieuwste quilt speeltje, de mallen voor de hexagons! Alleen blijken nu de papiertjes van de kleinste vormen wel erg snel op te raken, want je gebruikt er soms van driehoeken en ruiten wel 6-8 in 1 hexagon! Tja, hoe kleiner hoe leuker vind ik altijd, ok, in dit geval dan he! Dus wat blijft er dan over om te doen? Juist ja, ze maar eens in elkaar gaan zetten! Dus van dat heb ik eens gedaan: &lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TdEqiVyG2SI/AAAAAAAAF1U/ZH7wuHNhvvA/s1600-h/PICT0107%20%28Small%29%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px" title="PICT0107 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0107 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TdEqiwwlZqI/AAAAAAAAF1Y/ebC0EtPobnA/PICT0107%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" height="180" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Zelf vind ik ze wel leuk worden! En volgende week gaan we hopenlijk bij het Quilters Palet in Den Haag langs om zo’n kleine ronde snijmat te halen en er lekker een dagje uit van te maken tegelijkertijd, want DH heeft dan lekker een weekje vrij! Evy heeft ook een draagbare daylight lamp voor me besteld en DH zei dat we alleen gaan als die al binnen is…..dus nu hopen met grote hoop dat dat gaat lukken voor volgende week! Tuurlijk kun je alles ook opsturen, maar zo’n lekker dagje weg is ook niet mis hoor! En dan lekker bij het Binnenhof gaan lunchen of zo….(keep on dreaming girl).&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;You need a laugh? Ok, here is one! Last week I was in the mood to clean out the laundry basket and after going to the parc with Floppy (and never staying clean while doing it) I thought: ok, lets wash these clothes right away before you end up tomorrow with another half full basket of clothes. So I took an shower and changed and put everything in the washing machine. Till I missed my mobile phone…gladly only a few minutes after closing the machine, so I could open it again before it started the whole programme. But the phone was spoiled by the water already. So off to the phone shop for a new phone (I knew already it was to expensive to repair) and after an hour, and a lot of clients that thought they were in desperate need to be first…., we stood outside again with a new mobile. It is a great toy and with lots of features. Especially with my memory problems it is already a great help with all the extra widgets I can install! And lots of training games too! And now I can twitter, facebook and hyve all together in one phone! I have asked the customer service today how I knew how much data I would have used up and they will give me an sms to update me if I have used 90% of my bundle! That is great as it feels like it is gone in a minute, but now I know it ain’t true! As long as you don’t upload video’s or download them by youtube as that is lots of data traffic! &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;In between I also keep on playing with my new quilting tool, the templates for the hexagon in english paper pieving style. I love making all those fabric combinations and it is so easy to just glue the fabric to the paper templates! Great innovation the glue stick for fabric! Now my smallest pieces of paper are finished I have to start sewing some. So I did last week and this weekend. Aren’t they lovely? I like them a lot! And next week we will hopefully visit the shop where I bought these templates in Veldhoven (at their booth I mean), which is located in the Hague, for a small turning round cutting mat and a mobile daylight lamp. I hope they will have it in stock by the time we want to go as they ordered it for me, but weren’t sure they could have it in stock by next week when hubby is taking a week of from work (celebrating his brithday also) and we planned to go there as a nice day out! Ofcourse they can send it to my house also, but a nice day out in the Hague is lovely! Having a nice lunch near the parlement building or soemthing…..(keep on dreaming girl)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-3110711545120417248?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/3110711545120417248/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=3110711545120417248' title='7 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/3110711545120417248'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/3110711545120417248'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/05/mobile-drugs.html' title='Mobile &amp;amp; drugs'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TdEqhpqQOcI/AAAAAAAAF2Q/yRCd3dIN9xw/s72-c/PICT0108%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B5%5D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-2806573843410835553</id><published>2011-05-10T14:13:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-05-10T14:29:29.496+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Hexagons'/><title type='text'>Hexagonitis</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Het klinkt als de één of andere vreselijke ziekte, maar het is meer een verslaving, alleen niet zo erg als echte drugs, maar je krijgt er wel een kick van!&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/Tckr6VoV14I/AAAAAAAAF0Q/_Q-_L9_e5-8/s1600-h/PICT0086%20%28Small%29%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="PICT0086 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0086 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/Tckr65TYYmI/AAAAAAAAF0U/hcD726jvvkQ/PICT0086%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" height="180" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; En zo ziet zo’n verslaving er dan uit……een tafel vol met lapjes, tijdschriften, mallen en papiertjes en niet te vergeten de onontbeerlijke lijmpen! Het voelt een beetje zoals vroeger, wanneer je nog niet op je verjaardag zelf al met je kadootjes mocht spelen (of met sinterklaas), maar pas de dag erna…..ja, ik ben zo blij als een klein kind met mijn nieuwe kadootje! En gelukkig dat ik dat nog kan voelen!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;It sounds like a terrible disease, but I can say it is more an addiction, but not as bas as real drugs, but you do get a kick out of it! And the pic shows how it looks….a table stuffed with fabrics, magazines, templates and paper and not to forget the glue stick! It feels like when you are a child and aren’t allowed to play with your new toys on the day itself, but the day after…..ye, I feel like a small kid again with my new toys and it makes me HAPPY!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-2806573843410835553?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/2806573843410835553/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=2806573843410835553' title='3 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/2806573843410835553'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/2806573843410835553'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/05/hexagonitis.html' title='Hexagonitis'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/Tckr65TYYmI/AAAAAAAAF0U/hcD726jvvkQ/s72-c/PICT0086%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-1871067762243747042</id><published>2011-05-08T11:26:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-05-08T11:59:59.996+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Quilten'/><title type='text'>Veldhoven!</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;In één woord GEWELDIG was het! We, DH en ikke, zijn ‘s morgens al om 8.30 gaan rijden, zodat we ook al om 10.00 er waren en gelijk naar binnen konden. Het was gelukkig nog lekker rustig en je kon overal goed bij. Als eerste zijn we de winkeltjes gaan doen, voor het geval je er later alleen maar met de ellebogen bij zou kunnen, maar zelfs dat was niet het geval later op de dag! Manlief heeft me enorm verwend en bijna bij binnenkomst kreeg ik al twee mooie boeken van hem: &lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhjsYgauI/AAAAAAAAFxQ/LxBAI077LJU/s1600-h/PICT0074%20%28Small%29%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px" title="PICT0074 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0074 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhj52XxvI/AAAAAAAAFxU/RoEsDyz4kwA/PICT0074%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" height="180" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Da’s een leuk begin van de dag hoor! Ik ben op beide boeken erg verliefd en vooral die “Snibbles Times Two” is erg leuk! Er staan dan ook veel kleine quilts in, dus heel hanteerbaar voor mij! Deze man, van de boekenstand verkocht ook in een hoekje wat stoffen en laat daar nou de mooie kruissteekjes stof bij zitten die ze in de Home Sweet Home quilt gebruiken! Dus ja, dat kan je niet laten liggen he, evenals een paar andere leuke stofjes voor die quilt en ook voor Flopke’s quilt, dus rose! &lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZmy-M9iUI/AAAAAAAAFyk/ZEZwDgx6-b4/s1600-h/PICT0079%20%28Small%29%5B4%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px" title="PICT0079 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0079 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZmzSPWs2I/AAAAAAAAFyo/wtrccgrjU2A/PICT0079%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B2%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="175" height="131" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Manlief heeft ook nog een stofje uitgezocht: &lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhko9WWvI/AAAAAAAAFxY/dHd0Xr2Tw4g/s1600-h/PICT0083%20%28Small%29%5B4%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="PICT0083 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0083 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhk9tSvPI/AAAAAAAAFxc/mmArz-XAjq0/PICT0083%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B2%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="176" height="132" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Hij is weg van paisleys! Nee, hij gaat niet patchen, dat mag ik doen, maar ik mag het wel gebruiken in een quilt voor hem! Echt zijn kleuren!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Vlak daarna kwamen we bij de stand van Lynette Anderson &lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhlb7R7jI/AAAAAAAAFxg/2ejwgBenTJA/s1600-h/PICT0066%20%28Small%29%5B7%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="PICT0066 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0066 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhlzdcdBI/AAAAAAAAFxk/Z5pq8nIMd_w/PICT0066%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B3%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" height="180" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, en die wilde wel even poseren voor een leuke foto bij haar orginele quilt Scandanavian Christmas,&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhmeioFUI/AAAAAAAAFxo/Dgr3Dj3GXkk/s1600-h/PICT0072%20%28Small%29%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="PICT0072 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0072 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhmxyPyII/AAAAAAAAFxs/PXfS9XzDlWQ/PICT0072%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="180" height="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; die bij mij nog in de planning staat! Ik heb dan ook leuke knoopjes van rendieren bij haar gekocht om deze quilt een persoonlijk tintje te geven, maar wel in dezelfde stijl te blijven! En ik had nog een stofje ervoor nodig dat bij mijn achtergrond stof paste en daar ben ik ook voor geslaagd bij de Log Cabin,&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhnfhJI_I/AAAAAAAAFxw/jH8dCzzA2z4/s1600-h/PICT0077%20%28Small%29%5B4%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="PICT0077 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0077 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhn2JT47I/AAAAAAAAFx0/yVWPy_0qvck/PICT0077%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B2%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="213" height="160" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; dus niks houdt me nog tegen om eraan te beginnen! Misschien alleen wat tijd….? Dat potje heb ik nergens kunnen vinden helaas! &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;En al lopende kwamen we ook bij het Quilters Palet aan en o, wat hadden de meiden er weer een super leuke stand van gemaakt! Ik heb echt staan te kwijlen bij alle leuke doosjes die ze verkochten, maar die toch maar niet mee genomen! Wat wel mee naar huis ging waren alle hard plastic mallen en papiertjes voor de VariaHex, dus ook daar houdt niks me meer tegen om ermee te beginnen! Manlief vond dat wel een goede investering om minder gekreun en gesteun in huis te horen! Nou, ik hou hem niet tegen hoor! Dus dat was cadeautje nr 3! &lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhoc71FqI/AAAAAAAAFx4/EQAfwHIha-s/s1600-h/PICT0073%20%28Small%29%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px" title="PICT0073 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0073 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZho53qWrI/AAAAAAAAFx8/aBfq3GkjmGU/PICT0073%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" height="180" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Achteraf hebben we wel gelachen, want we hebben uitgerekend dan manlief meer geld had uitgegeven als ik zelf aan mijn hobby producten! Kijk, da’s nou eens goed bekeken he! Slim he om je man mee te nemen! En vooral ook erg gezellig! En veilig, want ik had veel last van mijn hoofd, gewoon teveel indrukken die tegelijkertijd binnen kwamen! En dan wil het bij mij wel eens fout gaan bij afrekenen, dus dat nam hij voor zijn rekening als ik het vroeg.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Verder heb ik leuke lapjes kunnen scoren voor de quilt in mijn laatste berichtje: vrolijke felle kleurtjes, maar dit keer geen grote motiefjes kunnen vinden. Dus ja, dan maar vast de kleine motiefjes mee genomen he! En natuurlijk kon ik dat ene lapje voor mijn NI niet laten liggen! &lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhpY73qQI/AAAAAAAAFz4/mImEs47uR_k/s1600-h/PICT0075%20%28Small%29%5B8%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="PICT0075 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0075 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhpvhgQ6I/AAAAAAAAFz8/cLe_8qXj6u8/PICT0075%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B6%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="197" height="148" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhqKSUQ7I/AAAAAAAAF0I/dfe1KNuU8ao/s1600-h/PICT0076%20%28Small%29%5B10%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="PICT0076 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0076 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhq5Xl4GI/AAAAAAAAF0M/onOfyfCD3tU/PICT0076%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B8%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="200" height="150" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Ik had dit keer eens een lijstje gemaakt met dingen die ik wilde gaan zoeken en zo ben ik dus niet vergeten om nieuwe big eye Bohin naaldjes mee te nemen! Ik koop die altijd op deze beurs bij de Contented Cat uit Engeland, dus ik kan weer ff voort! Zal ik nodig hebben met al dat hand piecing aan mijn Dear Jane! &lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhrAYL9pI/AAAAAAAAFyQ/3aO-TYgFrVQ/s1600-h/PICT0078%20%28Small%29%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="PICT0078 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0078 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhrrjcPcI/AAAAAAAAFyU/ZF6PaDERcNY/PICT0078%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" height="180" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Daarna zijn we nog op ons gemakje langs de quilts gegaan, want ja, er waren wel heel speciale bij hoor! Vooral de aparte quilts, kleding stukken uit India vond ik erg mooi qua ontwerp. Je zag wel dat vele versleten waren en stuk, maar ik denk dat dat te maken heeft met het feit dat de arme vrouwen in Rajasthan die maken en waarschijnlijk geen goede kleding mee geven. Ik vraag me nl. wel af of die vrouwen weten dat ze hier tentoon gesteld werden???!! Je mocht ze niet fotograferen, ook al zag ik velen dat wel gewoon doen, dus heb ik netjes de catalogus ervan gekocht! Dit wilde ik thuis nog wel eens in alle rust na kunnen kijken! &lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhsA0ZzCI/AAAAAAAAFyY/B8O0Z63_yeI/s1600-h/PICT0085%20%28Small%29%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="PICT0085 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0085 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhsiYBrwI/AAAAAAAAFyc/ZlvefLZLIzE/PICT0085%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" height="180" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Het was weer een dag met een dikke gouden rand!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;In one word, the expo was WONDERFUL! We, DH and I, left at 8.30 am to arrive at 10 am, the entrance time. It was nicely quiet early in the morning, so you could acces everything very well. We agreed to do the shops first, so when it would get crowded we had done our shopping! The first shop we saw was a bookstore, so in we went and hubby suprised me with buying two wonderfull books for me! I love both books as they give patterns for smaller quilts, which is better to handle for me. And I love sewing without drawing all those templates onto fabrics! The bookstore sold some fabrics aswell in a corner and they had the wonderfull cross stitch fabrics used in the quilt Home Sweet Home I just started! So I had to take some with me as I needed 1-2 pieces for background. I also saw some pink fabrics and I needed that for the HSH aswell and for Flopkes quilt. Even hubby saw fabric he liked, so that paisley piece is his! No, he won’t start patching, but he wants me to use it in a quilt for him I guess. Really his print and color!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;It was wonderfull to see Lynette Anderson life at het booth! And she was very kind to let me take a picture with her Scandanavian Christmas quilt! One I have planned to make and only needed some extra fabrics for, which I found. I also bought 2 reindeer buttons from Lynette as I thought it would make a nice adjustment to my quilt and give it a personal touch! &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Quilters Palet, a shop from The Hague, had a lovely booth aswell and we saw Evy, the owner, work on some hexies with a cutting mat that could turn. That was great! So we added that to the wishlist for next year! But we took home the hard plastic templates for the Varia Hex quilt she started in a dutch magazine. And of course the papers to use with it as it is all english pp. And I was able to find the fabrics I wanted for the quilt in my earlier message with the bright colours! They also had a red and white print I had seen on the internet, so that one went home with me too for my NI quilt! Nice red/white isn’t ugly! This time I made up a whishlist before we went, so I didn’t forget to buy new big eye needles from Bohin at the booth of Contented Cat from England! I need them as I will have to do a lot of hand piecing during the next months on my Dear Jane quilt, to get it ready before the end of the year!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;After all the stores we began to look closely at the quilts and I have seen really wonderfull pieces! The best I loved the exhibition of the quilts from India, from the county of Rajasthan. It wasn’t allowed to fotograph those quilts, so I bought the catalogue instead. I really wanted to see more of these back home!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;It has been a day with a golden border!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-1871067762243747042?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/1871067762243747042/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=1871067762243747042' title='5 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/1871067762243747042'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/1871067762243747042'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/05/veldhoven.html' title='Veldhoven!'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TcZhj52XxvI/AAAAAAAAFxU/RoEsDyz4kwA/s72-c/PICT0074%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-7113816980993313224</id><published>2011-05-05T19:45:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-05-05T19:47:07.538+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Algemeen'/><title type='text'>Verliefd…..In LOVE</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Zo simpel, maar zo MOOI!

Het is een heel krachtig symbool voor wiccans en neo paganisten. En in kombinatie met Moederdag leek me dit wel een goed moment om hier eens dieper op in te gaan. In de uitleg van de patroonbeschrijving lezen jullie er meer over. Je kunt die vinden op ons &lt;a href="http://simply2m.blogspot.com/"&gt;Simply2M Blog&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;The theme of this month is the Mother Goddess or just the Goddess. It is a very powerfull symbol for wiccans and neo paganists. And in combination with Mothers Day I thought that the time was right to tell a little more about this in the pattern description.

Niet dat ik nu al zoveel te melden heb hoor, maar ik heb ook niet helemaal stil gezeten. Mijn Cirque des Cercles schiet al weer aardig op en wordt steeds mooier, al zeg ik het zelf! &lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TbgkXMURkYI/AAAAAAAAFu8/4BXaw8cHe4A/s1600-h/PICT0038%20%28Small%29%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="PICT0038 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0038 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TbgkXrPbfRI/AAAAAAAAFvA/dpHac_aQQwM/PICT0038%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" height="180" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Daarnaast natuurlijk toch wel bezig geweest met mijn Dear Jane, maar sommige blokjes bleken niet goed te kloppen qua maat en die moesten helaas over gemaakt worden, want ik kreeg ze er echt niet goed ingepast! Dus dat houdt dan wel wat op! &lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TbgkYKzhekI/AAAAAAAAFvE/vNciQmQuGbQ/s1600-h/PICT0036%20%28Small%29%5B9%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="PICT0036 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0036 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TbgkYchvMeI/AAAAAAAAFvI/oSfoAh1B_R4/PICT0036%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B7%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" height="180" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Maar uiteindelijk zijn wel alle tussenranden gesneden en ook de randen rondom het blok gedeelte en de geschulpte rand. Die bleek ik als enigste goed te hebben gesneden, de rest moest echt twee keer! Gelukkig had ik net genoeg stof! Tja, daar kun je je over opwinden, maar ik wijt het maar aan de naweeën van de TIA, dan heb ik er meer vrede mee. Gelukkig merk ik wel dat er herstel op treedt, dus dat geeft de burger moed. En toen werd het mooi weer en Pasen! &lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TbgkY4fL_LI/AAAAAAAAFvM/qjywyUVAubo/s1600-h/PICT0035%20%28Small%29%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="PICT0035 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0035 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TbgkZZLepeI/AAAAAAAAFvQ/VL-cVJsSK_E/PICT0035%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" height="180" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; En dat is bij ons dan een huiskamer vol met bloemen. Helaas waren de narcissen meer verrot als uitgekomen, maar ja, dat was gewoon een vette miskoop! De fresia’s staan nog steeds prachtig! Deze dagen ben ik lekker veel met Flopke buiten gaan spelen en die ligt nu dus nog bij te komen LOL! Maar heerlijk vond ze het! Ze heeft haar koppie echt vol met de lente zitten en haalt dus ook navenante streken uit! Ja, ze wordt zelfs een beetje STOUT! Helaas moeten jullie hier de foto’s van missen, want mijn mobiel fotografeert nog wel, maar delete de foto ook gelijk. Raar ei dus! En ja, de geur van hoe ze in allerlei viezigheid heeft liggen rollenbollen, kan ik jullie beter besparen! &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;De lentekriebels hebben er ook toe geleid dat ik mijn vogeltjes quilt project weer eens tevoren heb gehaald en ik ben nu met het 7e blok bezig van de Tail Feathers. De kleuren maken dit echt een lentequilt voor mijn gevoel! Ik heb 4 blokken helemaal in elkaar zitten en nog 2 blokken liggen klaar om in elkaar gezet te worden. De rest moet ik nog borduren. Blok 5, 6 en 7: &lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TbgkZ67MtoI/AAAAAAAAFv4/GDsFqJT2Jco/s1600-h/TF-5%20%28Small%29%5B5%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="TF-5 (Small)" border="0" alt="TF-5 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TbgkaNj9sAI/AAAAAAAAFv8/42WX0gCh43U/TF-5%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B3%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="195" height="146" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/Tbgkaj0W4OI/AAAAAAAAFwA/Q4NvmHLK61c/s1600-h/TF-6%20%28Small%29%5B6%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="TF-6 (Small)" border="0" alt="TF-6 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TbgkbOV5_1I/AAAAAAAAFwE/d7YcN4_l7KI/TF-6%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B4%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="195" height="146" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TbgkbqTRJ_I/AAAAAAAAFwI/bAzK5AC3TCU/s1600-h/TF-7%20%28Small%29%5B5%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="TF-7 (Small)" border="0" alt="TF-7 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/Tbgkb9FEvrI/AAAAAAAAFwM/LQAEJ9hMgWw/TF-7%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B3%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="195" height="146" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; En dit moet het uiteindelijk worden dan: &lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TbgkcQ3bvjI/AAAAAAAAFvs/dVEapeZ74DY/s1600-h/TF%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="TF" border="0" alt="TF" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TbgkcnnYHXI/AAAAAAAAFvw/78Tz_povV-8/TF_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" height="239" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;PS.

En ja, dat vindt hij nog leuk ook (ga ik vanuit LOL)&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Well, there wasn’t much to tell and I don’t blog to blog, so there is a blog silence now and then. Of course my hands haven’t been resting at all, so I did make something! My Cirque des Cercles are growing and it is getting more and more beautiful if I can say so myself (1st pic). Besides that I have been working on my Dear Jane and some blocks appeared to be to large and I just couldn’t squueze them into 5 inch squares, so I had to remake them. Of course this slows you down in sewing rows together (see 2nd pic)! Finally all large sashings have been cut and only the scallop border I had to do once, the rest I cut worngly and had to redo it. Gladly I had enough fabric to be able to do it again! Of course you can get upset by that, but I think it is a leftover from my brain bleeding end of february and when I think that I am more at peace with it all. I do feel some positive progress, so that gives me hope again! And after that all it was Easter and we had lovely summer weather! It even was sometimes to hot to sit in the sun! At our place we always have loads of flowers with Easter and all though some didn’t bloom, the others are still in full glory (3rd. pic)! With Easter (in Holland we have 2 days holidays) I went out a lot with Floppy and she loved it! Lots os swimming and playing and she really has this sense of Spring in her head, so she is really NAUGHTY these days! You have to miss the pictures of her acting up, but be sure it isn’t a shame you can’t SMELL what she has been doing……! The springfever also let to picking up my birds quilt Tail Feathers. I made about 4 blocks complete now and have embroidered 5,6 and halfway 7 (last 3 pics). The last picture is from the whole quilt as it will be one day.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;PS. Do you know that next week the EQC are starting in Veldhoven (south of Holland). Look at the site for info (also in english): &lt;a title="http://www.oeqc.eu/indexnl.php" href="http://www.oeqc.eu/indexnl.php"&gt;http://www.oeqc.eu/indexnl.php&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160; I will be going there next week on saturday as we will have the day of from Floppy’s school. And yes, hubby likes it (I assume)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-2187721804574040871?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/2187721804574040871/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=2187721804574040871' title='2 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/2187721804574040871'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/2187721804574040871'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/04/terug-van-weg-geweest-back.html' title='Terug van weg geweest/ Back'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TbgkXrPbfRI/AAAAAAAAFvA/dpHac_aQQwM/s72-c/PICT0038%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-3322621898486453212</id><published>2011-04-09T19:58:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-04-09T19:58:52.967+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Jane'/><title type='text'>Dear Jane Expo 2013</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TaCeWZu3LiI/AAAAAAAAFuY/oFOAOU0PTZU/s1600-h/thequilt%20DJ%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px" title="thequilt DJ" border="0" alt="thequilt DJ" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TaCeW2M_jBI/AAAAAAAAFuc/triFdUPZiss/thequilt%20DJ_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="239" height="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;a title="http://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=215318371818622&amp;amp;id=100000213814800&amp;amp;ref=notif&amp;amp;notif_t=feed_comment#!/event.php?eid=175278389191471" href="http://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=215318371818622&amp;amp;id=100000213814800&amp;amp;ref=notif&amp;amp;notif_t=feed_comment#!/event.php?eid=175278389191471"&gt;http://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=215318371818622&amp;amp;id=100000213814800&amp;amp;ref=notif&amp;amp;notif_t=feed_comment#!/event.php?eid=175278389191471&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Wij zullen hierbij zijn in 2013! Het is de eerste Dear Jane Expo. Het wordt in Brussel gehouden van 1 mei tot 5 mei 2013. Gelukkig duurt het nog behoorlijk lang voordat het zover is, want mijn quilt is nog niet echt in elkaar gezet hoor! En ik wil hem ook nog eens met de hand quilten! Ik moet zelfs nog de nodige blokken en driehoeken maken! Dus ik weet waar ik de komende tijd te vinden ben: in mijn naaikamer of in de huiskamer aan de grote tafel al naaiende! Geeft wel een enorme stimulans om hem nu echt af te maken! Ik wil echt zo graag dat ie daar komt te hangen! De eerste keer dat er een quilt van mij op een tt komt te hangen! En Brenda Papadakis, de schrijfster van het boek Dear Jane, komt dan lezingen geven en workshops! Hubby vond het een leuk iets om naartoe te gaan, dus super, we gaan lekker samen! &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;We will be there! It is the first Dear Jane Expo. It will be held from May 1st. till May 5th in 2013. Thankfully it will take this long before we go there as I am still in the stage of putting the quilt together and finishing off some tri’s and blocks. And I want to hand quilt it too! So you know where to find me the next couple of months! In my sewing room of in the klivingroom at the diner table, sewing along! It really gets me motivated to finish this huge quilt! I really want it to hang on the Expo! The first time my quilt will even hang at an Expo! And Brenda Papadakis, the writer of the book Dear Jane, will come over to give lectures and workshops! Hubby loved the idea and will join me on my tour, so we will go togther!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-3322621898486453212?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/3322621898486453212/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=3322621898486453212' title='4 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/3322621898486453212'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/3322621898486453212'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/04/dear-jane-expo-2013.html' title='Dear Jane Expo 2013'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TaCeW2M_jBI/AAAAAAAAFuc/triFdUPZiss/s72-c/thequilt%20DJ_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-3585902583963996337</id><published>2011-04-07T21:11:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-04-07T21:18:17.544+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Floppy/Flopke'/><title type='text'>Diva Flopke</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;a href="http://sparklinghope.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px" title="image" border="0" alt="image" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TZ4N1BR6XhI/AAAAAAAAFuA/dVeDwkz-ies/image%5B19%5D.png?imgmax=800" width="343" height="172" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;ZO leuk! Flopke staat op het nakomelingen blog van onze fokster! We werden gevraagd of we een leuk verhaaltje over onze hond wilde schrijven en dan vooral over haar karakter en eventuele overeenkomsten met haar moeder. Dat heeft even geduurd, maar deze week heb ik het gemaakt en ingezonden. Vandaag nog wat foto’s erbij gestuurd die hier onder ook staan. Klik op het plaatje om het te lezen (links is Flopke’s mama). Ben zo benieuwd of er gauw verhaaltjes over haar broertjes en zusjes op komen! Heb ze allemaal nooit meer terug gezien. De terugkom dag is steeds in het water gevallen, maar staat nog in de planning voor dit voorjaar of zomer!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;So cute! Flopke is added to the blog of our breeder! We were asked to write a nice story about our dog and especially about her caracter and in what she looks like her mom. It took me a while to be able to do that, but last week I managed to make it and have send it in. Today I have send some cool pics, the ones that are here too (below). Now I am curious if there will be stories of her brothers and sisters soon with pics! I have never seen them again after we picked Flopke up at 8 weeks. The reünion day was cancelled several times. but is still to be planned for this spring or summer!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-3585902583963996337?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/3585902583963996337/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=3585902583963996337' title='1 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/3585902583963996337'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/3585902583963996337'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/04/diva-flopke.html' title='Diva Flopke'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TZ4N1BR6XhI/AAAAAAAAFuA/dVeDwkz-ies/s72-c/image%5B19%5D.png?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-6844186032016163107</id><published>2011-04-07T11:24:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-04-07T13:39:53.074+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Floppy/Flopke'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Jane'/><title type='text'>Zon!/Sun!</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Is het bij jullie ook zulk lekker weer? Nou, hier in het midden van het land wel hoor! Ok, gisterenochtend was de zon nog nergens te bekennen en hadden we zelfs eerst nog regen, maar rond 13.00 uur piepte ie door het wolkendek en werd het echt lekker! Dus na het snijden van een deel van de sashings voor mijn Dear Jane ben ik lekker op het balkon gaan zitten en heb er een paar aan gezet! Het begin is er:&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TZ2C2ZPu0CI/AAAAAAAAFq0/CkVvLUy76wM/s1600-h/PICT0031%20%28Small%29%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="PICT0031 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0031 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TZ2C23YgJ8I/AAAAAAAAFq4/jh5CL8f8F8M/PICT0031%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" height="180" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Nu staat de wasmachine druk te draaien om de restlap van de ecru stof te bleken en te krimpen. Ik heb eens een wat donkerder kleur gekocht – jaren geleden - en toen vond ik dat niet mooi. Dus in de wasmachine en bleken….nu vind ik die kleur wel mooi, maar ja, het moet wel een beetje bij elkaar blijven passen he, dus toch maar gaan bleken! Ik doe dat gewoon op de kookwas met waspoeder waar wat bleek in zit. Vanochtend heb ik er ook nog een gewoon scheutje bleek bij gegoten om niet 4x te hoeven wassen. Dat was nl. het aantal beurten wat ik die andere lappen heb gegeven (ik had meters gekocht aan de rol en sneed er steeds een meter af die ik dan waste en bleekte), dus ja, dat moet dan wel een beetje gelijk blijven he! Als ie droog is kan ik kijken of de kleur nu goed is anders moet het nog een keertje. Ondertussen kan ik dus lekker verder sashings en blokjes aan elkaar naaien. Nee, natuurlijk niet alleen! &lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TZ2C3U8Wk5I/AAAAAAAAFq8/FH8VwW-hwu8/s1600-h/PICT0030%20%28Small%29%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="PICT0030 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0030 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TZ2C37OyUXI/AAAAAAAAFrA/Nxf2dlo5OuY/PICT0030%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" height="180" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Flopke is dol op het balkon, dus komt ze er altijd gezellig bij liggen! Een beetje chillen en rond kijken is haar grote hobby nu! En zien jullie de bloemen aan de bomen, ja we hebben een grote tuin voor het huis nu! Echt prachtige bloesem bomen staan volop in bloei! En het leuke is: de gemeente doet het onderhoud!&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TZ2ic5u3VKI/AAAAAAAAFtA/BXVuZi91I7g/s1600-h/PICT0019%20%28Small%29.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="PICT0019 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0019 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TZ2C4_zRUtI/AAAAAAAAFtE/ZT-IM7o8hwo/PICT0019%20%28Small%29_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="186" height="140" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TZ2C5F3-iZI/AAAAAAAAFtI/XtXREwjrtgU/s1600-h/PICT0029%20%28Small%29.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="PICT0029 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0029 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TZ2C5pxOiLI/AAAAAAAAFtM/JHEJ_CLc3xQ/PICT0029%20%28Small%29_thumb.jpg?imgmax=800" width="186" height="140" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; @ Lida: het bleken op deze manier is super goed gelukt. Exact dezelfde kleur gekregen als de vorige lappen! Ben helemaal blij! Alleen zo direct dus wel een paar meter katoen nat strijken (doe ik altijd zodat ik echt alle kreukels er goed uit krijg).&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Do you have such nice weather also? It is lovely here in the Netherlands. Ok, yesterday the day started with cold and rain, but around 1 pm it turned and the sun peeped throught the clouds and it became sunny and even warm. With a little wind it became later on chilly, but the first few hours were gorgeous! So after cutting my sashings for my Dear Jane I sat down on the balcony and sewed some onto the blocks to join them into rows. It is a start! Now the washings machine is turning its rounds to bleached the rest of my creme fabric. I bought a bolt of it at first, but back then I didn’t like the color so much so bleached it. Now I do like the color but it won’t be looking good together, so now I just have to bleached the rest too! When it is dry I can see if the color fits with the other fabrics I have cut off before (and washed and bleached separately) or that I need to redo it. In between I am adding more blocks to my first row. No, not alone!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Flopke loves the balcony and always joins me when I go sit outside for coffee, tea of sewing. She loves to chill out and look around down on the street. Do you see the lovely blossoming trees in front of our balcony? We have a garden now and the good thing about it is: the townhall does the maintenance!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TZ2C3U8Wk5I/AAAAAAAAFq8/FH8VwW-hwu8/s1600-h/PICT0030%20%28Small%29%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-6844186032016163107?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/6844186032016163107/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=6844186032016163107' title='3 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/6844186032016163107'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/6844186032016163107'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/04/zon.html' title='Zon!/Sun!'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TZ2C23YgJ8I/AAAAAAAAFq4/jh5CL8f8F8M/s72-c/PICT0031%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-2638618536137764137</id><published>2011-04-05T19:19:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-04-05T19:23:47.334+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Dear Jane'/><title type='text'>Wat zal ik gaan doen?/What will I do?</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Tja, dat is een vraag die tegenwoordig echt belangrijk is. Door mijn TIA kan ik nu niet makkelijk meer het begin vinden van dingen die ik moet doen. Dus het hele weekend meer rondjes gelopen door het huis (echt!) dan dat er veel uit mijn handen kwam. Nee, ik hoef echt niet elke dag heel productief te zijn, maar zelfs iets hobby-achtigs lukte me niet! Meestal eindig ik dan maar met een borduurwerkje op schoot, dat gaat nog. Moet ik nog goed opletten, maar is minder plannen als met quilten. Maar goed, het is natuurlijk niet alleen zo met hobby werkstukjes plannen. Dus eens met manlief overlegt hoe ik dat nu zelf toch wat beter duidelijk kan krijgen voor mezelf. Het toverwoord was toch weer: LIJSTJES! Ja, je weet wel, van die lijstjes van things-to-do. Nu kan ik goed overweg met de PC, dus maar een een takenlijstje gemaakt per dag in outlook. En ik moet zeggen, als ik ervoor zorg dat ze een haalbare daglengte hebben en dus niet zijn volgepropt met duizend dingen die moeten, dat het helpt! Het is heerlijk om na afloop van een klusje het door te strepen en aan het einde van de dag alles door gestreept te zien! En nu komt er dus ook wat AF! Onverwachts heb ik morgen de ochtend vrij en weet je wat ik met al die uurtjes ga doen? Juist ja, Flopke verwennen met een lekkere wandeling (schiet er soms ook te vaak bij in) en daarna ga ik kijken of ik eens sashings kan snijden voor mijn DJ blokjes! Ik wil zo graag al die blokjes eens aan elkaar zien en mijn streven was dat deze quilt top eind van het jaar af zou zijn. Nou geloof me, daar moet echt nog veel voor gebeuren, dus om me nu wat meer te motiveren ga ik morgen een aantal blokjes aan elkaar zetten! Ja, ik weet het: had ik al heel lang geleden gelijk moeten doen! Had nu een hoop werk gescheeld en vooral ergernis! Maar we komen er wel, al is het langzaam!&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TZtPN45aCcI/AAAAAAAAFqo/i1VT3P-vCM4/s1600-h/PICT0006%20%28Small%29%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px" title="PICT0006 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0006 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TZtPOflyFaI/AAAAAAAAFqs/fvJ0VF36A8I/PICT0006%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" height="180" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;YES! That is the question these days! And an important one, because my TIA caused lots of damage in my brains, like trying to start things but not knowing how to! So all weekend I have been walking around in the house doing nothing. No, I don’t need to be productive every day, but even doing fun stuff like hobby is difficult from time to time. Most of the time I end up with my hand embroidery things in my chair as that is the easiest thing to do now. I do have to watch carefully that I don’t count the cross stitches wrongly, but ok it is less planning than quilting is. But it ain’t just like this only with hobby stuff. So I talked to hubby to find a way to get things better planned and done. He came up with the suggestion to make again LISTS. You know, those things-to-do lists. Well I am quite handy with the PC, so I worked out some scedules, to try this week on a daily basis, and guess what? It works so far! As long as I don’t make them undo-able long I manage to get things done in a day. And it feels great! Especially when you can put a big cross through another task you just accomplished! Especially wonderfull by the end of the day, when they are all crossed off! Suddenly I have tomorrow morning off and guess what I will be doing with these hours of free time? YES, first spoil Flopke with a nice walk in the parc (I do admit we don’t do this enough sometimes) and after that I want to see if I can cut some sashings to add to the DJ blocks I have already made in the past. I sure want those blocks joined together these days and my goal for this year is/was to get the top of my DJ finished by the end of the year. But believe me, I sure need to do a lot of work to accomplish that! It would have been much better to add them while making the blocks, but I didn’t in the past. It would have made a huge difference now and much less frustration! But we will get there, although it is slowly!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-2638618536137764137?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/2638618536137764137/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=2638618536137764137' title='2 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/2638618536137764137'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/2638618536137764137'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/04/wat-zal-ik-eens-gaan-doenwhat-will-i-do.html' title='Wat zal ik gaan doen?/What will I do?'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TZtPOflyFaI/AAAAAAAAFqs/fvJ0VF36A8I/s72-c/PICT0006%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-7689657810294423101</id><published>2011-04-01T14:54:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-06-25T00:09:27.670+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Celtic BOM 2011'/><title type='text'>Celtic BOM april</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;a href="http://simply2m.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="image" border="0" alt="image" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TZcdj-csqgI/AAAAAAAAFqc/oh8wL_Y72I8/image%5B5%5D.png?imgmax=800" width="194" height="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;De nieuwe aflevering van de Celtic BOM, April al weer.

Normaal kopen we dan een klein kadootje, maar dit jaar lukte dat niet, want de winkels die het hadden waren steeds uitverkocht. Maar afgelopen week zag ik de beoogde knuffel en heb hem gelijk voor haar gekocht. Het is haar lievelings knuffel en ze heeft hem al vanaf haar puppytijd. Toen nog het kleine formaat, maar toen ze groter werd had hubby de grootste knuffel voor haar gekocht. Die is dus wel aan slijtage onderhevig en laatst zaten de oogjes erg los, dus ja, een nieuwe was welkom. Voor de gein het in laten pakken, zodat Flopke het kon uitpakken! Nou, dat was spannend hoor! Het papier alleen al was heel interessant! Ze heeft hem helemaal zelf eruit gepulkt!&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TYXSvu1ELWI/AAAAAAAAFl4/DnhunUqXjRQ/s1600-h/PICT1292%20%28Small%29%5B4%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="PICT1292 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT1292 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TYXSwLqaF1I/AAAAAAAAFl8/D3xaJ-NxhJc/PICT1292%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B2%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="169" height="127" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TYXSwmU0MrI/AAAAAAAAFmA/5DYPqMSUyzw/s1600-h/PICT1294%20%28Small%29%5B4%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="PICT1294 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT1294 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TYXSxP4p6QI/AAAAAAAAFmE/eoWZ3mpIzmo/PICT1294%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B2%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="169" height="127" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160; Ook mijn eigen kadootje is binnen!

JA! Die felle rode is van een oudere lijn en past er perfect bij door het motiefje! Dus op zoek gegaan naar dat stofje, voor wat extra meters, en ook nog kunnen vinden! Helemaal geweldig, want ik vind deze nieuwe stoffenlijn heel mooi, maar wel erg zoet. Ik denk dat het saai wordt zonder dat extra felle rood erin! En gelukkig heb ik daar in het verleden goed van ingeslagen! Dus er zijn nog meer varianten voor in deze BOM randen quilt! Zoals onderstaande lapjes, die van een eerdere serie zijn, maar nog wel in Nederland verkrijgbaar, dus nog maar ff erbij gekocht! &lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TYXS14O17GI/AAAAAAAAFmw/4Sa6twTT81Y/s1600-h/PICT0001%20%28Small%29%5B4%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="PICT0001 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT0001 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TYXS2Or90ZI/AAAAAAAAFm0/UeWmM2myZMk/PICT0001%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B2%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="153" height="115" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left"&gt;O ja, ik ben ook nog bezig geweest hoor! Vooral met borduren deze maand! Ik doe mee met een Stitch A Long (SAL) en dan krijg je eens per maand een patroontje wat je moet uitborduren. Nu had ik een tijdje geleden op de Albert Cuyp markt goedkope evenwave stof gevonden en daar een paar meters van mee genomen. Die wilde ik nu eens gebruiken om dit soort projectjes op te borduren. Het is fijner geweven als de gewone borduurstof, maar ik vond het zelf wel erg mooi worden door dat fijnere geweven. Dus na een badje in een pan thee had het de juiste kleur (was eerst erg wit). Ok, er zitten wat foutjes in door telfouten, maar in het geheel is dat niet storend, dus heb ik het maar zo gelaten! Momenteel kan ik toch niet foutloos werken nu mijn hoofd nog niet op orde is na die mini TIA van laatst. Manlief vond dat ik er een quiltje van moest maken voor in ons quilthuisje, maar van het eerste borduurtje had ik geen stofjes in de kleuren die ik gebruikt had, dus toen maar een tweede gemaakt en daar precies de kleurtjes bij gezocht van een lapje van Fig Tree dat ik nog had liggen (niet zo moeilijk met een voorraad krat). Ook wat meer geëxperimenteerd met verloopgaren, leuk hé. &lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TYX9W89rhLI/AAAAAAAAFp8/nx4yOsQY-Tw/s1600-h/PICT1316%20%28Small%29%5B1%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="PICT1316 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT1316 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TYXS3LsSHnI/AAAAAAAAFqA/YJROfc_WQ5g/PICT1316%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="164" height="123" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TYXaCyHOoPI/AAAAAAAAFqE/NYmW48ObFJk/s1600-h/PICT1315%20%28Small%29%5B1%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="PICT1315 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT1315 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TYXS3SNIsNI/AAAAAAAAFqI/jbA_R7RQmxw/PICT1315%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="164" height="123" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160; En ik ben ondertussen ook flink verder gegaan met mijn&amp;#160; Cirque des Cercles, kijk maar: &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TYXS3zZbHxI/AAAAAAAAFpY/EpteQUwyQPY/s1600-h/21012011%20sm%5B5%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="21012011 sm" border="0" alt="21012011 sm" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TYXS4VxhpYI/AAAAAAAAFpc/WOt5KSJamiA/21012011%20sm_thumb%5B3%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="176" height="132" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TYXS4-2iplI/AAAAAAAAFpg/XX5W-4CWM_M/s1600-h/20-3-2011%20%28Small%29%5B5%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="20-3-2011 (Small)" border="0" alt="20-3-2011 (Small)" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TYXS5GgcXqI/AAAAAAAAFpk/coqm2WUB37E/20-3-2011%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B3%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="175" height="132" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160; Best een eindje verder he, sinds januari! Hij wordt zo MOOI en het is zo LEUK om te doen! Moet wel wat gedoseerder ermee aan de gang zijn, maar ach, dat went ook wel hoor! Ik wissel alles iets meer af en daardoor ben ik ook wat meer buiten te vinden in het park met Flopke en dat vindt zij helemaal niet erg! Zeker niet nu het zonnetje zo lekker schijnt, dus ik ga zo weer lekker buiten spelen LOL!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;em&gt;As you all could have read Flopke has become 2 years last March 1st. Normally we get her a small present like a little toy, but this year we had something in mind we couldn’t find, as all the shops were sold out when we looked for it. It is her favorite stuffed dog/lab, which she has since she was 8 weeks old. First it was a smaller version, but hubby bought a larger one when she grew. Now the eyes are a little bit wiggling, so she needed a new one, before she would swallow the eyes. Last week I saw the one we wanted (brown lab ofcourse) and took it straite with me! I had it wrapped up so she could unwarp it and she was so excited by just the paper! It was such fun to see her wrestling with it to find the toy inside! My own presents from the States have arrived aswell, so I have the new line of Fig Tree in a FQ bundle! I was amazed when I took a peek inside my Fig Tree box and saw a bright red one with the same motive! That was excellent as I thought the quilt would need an extra brighter fabric as this new fabric line is very soft and might be a bit boring in a big quilt. Fig Tree always designs fabrics in a way you can use older lines with new ones and this is such a great example! I am thrilled I found this out! I had to look for more of this older red fabric and I emailed the store where I bought this FQ and yes they do have it on the bolt still! So I ordered 2 extra meters as I know I will add this fabric a lot in the quilt! And I have also some other variations in red so I can use them too! This BOM quilt will be stunning! I also found some other fabrics in my LQS and had to take them along too! No idea yet for what, but that will pop up in my mind when I need it! They could even be compared with this new line too!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;em&gt;O yes, I have been busy aswell, mostly with embroidering these days. I joined a Stitch A Long (SAL) and will get every month a different pattern to make. This month it was this saying and I liked it a lot! Hubby said I should make it into a small wall quilt to hang in our quilthouse, but I didn’t have the right fabrics that would make a good combination with the colors I used for the embroidering, so I decided to make another one and selected the colors with the fabric on hand. I also experimented a little with this special embroidery thread and liked the result! For the rest I have been working hard on my Cirque des Cercles, as you can see on the pictures. The 1st one is from January and the second I just took, so March 20th. This one will be framed when it is finished! It is getting so beautiful and is such fun to stitch! I have to make it slowly as my head isn’t still right after the small bleeding a couple of weeks ago. But slowly I will get there too! So I do more things in a day and everything I do I do less long to prevent my head from hurting much. The good thing about it is that Flopke is coming outside to play more often and with spring around the corner and lots of sunshine, that is lovely and good for me aswell! So I will be playing outside again in a short time!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-740594002948425450?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/740594002948425450/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=740594002948425450' title='5 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/740594002948425450'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/740594002948425450'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/03/kadootjes.html' title='Kadootjes'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TYXSvEPW7ZI/AAAAAAAAFl0/qd8-lYVVg7c/s72-c/PICT1284%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-4226682258914499737</id><published>2011-03-08T12:09:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2011-03-08T12:11:28.782+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Algemeen'/><title type='text'>My 2nd. birthday!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; width: 425px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding-top: 0px" id="scid:5737277B-5D6D-4f48-ABFC-DD9C333F4C5D:100cbbd0-32a3-4ee8-a132-925af2d30c2c" class="wlWriterEditableSmartContent"&gt;&lt;div id="f57a0b1f-ef35-4afe-8fac-4ce0bde0690d" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; display: inline;"&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dePMU8R131s" target="_new"&gt;&lt;img src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TXYOU-rsy6I/AAAAAAAAFlc/QWGHwYLol-c/video7183176d6d51%5B8%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-style: none" galleryimg="no" onload="var downlevelDiv = document.getElementById('f57a0b1f-ef35-4afe-8fac-4ce0bde0690d'); downlevelDiv.innerHTML = &amp;quot;&amp;lt;div&amp;gt;&amp;lt;object width=\&amp;quot;425\&amp;quot; height=\&amp;quot;355\&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;param name=\&amp;quot;movie\&amp;quot; value=\&amp;quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/dePMU8R131s&amp;amp;hl=en\&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;\/param&amp;gt;&amp;lt;embed src=\&amp;quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/dePMU8R131s&amp;amp;hl=en\&amp;quot; type=\&amp;quot;application/x-shockwave-flash\&amp;quot; width=\&amp;quot;425\&amp;quot; height=\&amp;quot;355\&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;\/embed&amp;gt;&amp;lt;\/object&amp;gt;&amp;lt;\/div&amp;gt;&amp;quot;;" alt=""&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Yes! Ik ben echt 21 geworden! Ok, nadat ik mijn levertransplantatie gehad heb reken ik dan nu he, maar ja, dit is wel mijn tweede leven hoor! Zo voelt het wel. Vandaag een lekker lummel dagje en vanavond gaan we naar een leuk Italiaans restaurantje om te smullen! Ja, je moet zo’n dag wel wat vieren, ook al weet de rest van de wereld er niks meer van, voor mij blijft het heel speciaal dat ik er nog ben. Gisteren, toen ik voor de jaarlijkse check-up in Groningen was, hoorde ik dat er nog iemand in Nederland in leven is, na een levertransplantatie, die nu al 33 jaar een nieuwe lever heeft, dus er is nog hoop dat ik misschien ook nog een tijdje mee ga! Tja, daar ga je na zo’n tijd best wel eens vragen bij stellen hoor, zoiets van “Hoe lang nog”?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;YES! I became 21 years young today! Ok, after I have had a livertransplantation I am counting, but yes, this is my seocn life you know! It feels that way. So today is an easy day, just hanging around doing fun stuff and for dinner we will go out to a nice Italian restaurant in town. Ye, you have to celebrate such a day, even if the rest of the world doesn’t remember, to me it will always be special that I am still around. Yesterday, when I was in the hospital in the north for my yearly check-up, I heard that there is still someone alive who has gotten a new liver 33 years ago, so there is still hope I will be here for a few more years! Yes, after such a time, you are going to question how long you will still be around!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-4226682258914499737?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/4226682258914499737/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=4226682258914499737' title='7 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/4226682258914499737'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/4226682258914499737'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/03/my-2nd-birthday.html' title='My 2nd. birthday!'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TXYOU-rsy6I/AAAAAAAAFlc/QWGHwYLol-c/s72-c/video7183176d6d51%5B8%5D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-3883400364223172688</id><published>2011-03-05T21:50:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2011-03-06T14:12:54.201+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Midden Nederland Bee</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Ja een internet bee bestaat ook! Een bee bijeenkomst van een internet groep! Het was beregezellig weer! Eén van de leden, in midden nederland dus, had haar huis ter beschikking gesteld en alles tot in de puntjes verzorgd. Iedereen had iets te eten of drinken mee genomen &lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TXOHyWoITsI/AAAAAAAAFlM/x1XZ9Dlh5Sc/s1600-h/MN_bee_eten%5B4%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px" title="MN_bee_eten" border="0" alt="MN_bee_eten" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TXOHy6vz4sI/AAAAAAAAFlQ/7x3i7_nYntc/MN_bee_eten_thumb%5B2%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="188" height="139" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; en ik had zowaar, sinds jaren, weer een cake gebakken! En die ging er goed in! Hij had dan ook ietsje langer in de oven gestaan als de eerste, die we maar hier thuis aan het opeten zijn….heel smakelijk hoor, maar iets meer ingezakt ed.! Iedereen had zich echt uitgesloofd en het was reuze gezellig! We hadden onze eigen show &amp;amp; tell en daarvoor had ik mijn sterrenpracht &lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TXKiD8xmWgI/AAAAAAAAFkM/ft94GPj_4pw/s1600-h/3223%20sm%5B7%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="3223 sm" border="0" alt="3223 sm" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TXKiEVJTZ8I/AAAAAAAAFkU/uGur78dm1yQ/3223%20sm_thumb%5B5%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="171" height="148" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;en het eerste affe topje van de dolly quilts&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TXN6vX6x7CI/AAAAAAAAFk8/geZKqurImqo/s1600-h/IMG_3226%2B%28Large%29%5B1%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="IMG_3226 (Large)" border="0" alt="IMG_3226 (Large)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TXKiFExJvWI/AAAAAAAAFlA/60gyVaYuJ2U/IMG_3226%2B%28Large%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="170" height="129" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; mee genomen. Als mystery guest hadden we Henk van Kooten en zijn partner Bas en o, wat hebben we allemaal genoten van de quilts van deze kunstenaar! Ik had zelfs mijn nieuwe blokjes even mee genomen voor advies en ik denk dat ik er wel uit ben hoe ik het ga maken! Maar dat blijft nog een verrassing! Je kunt wel zien dat ik het erg naar mijn zin had, dankzij de foto’s van de anderen, want ik was mijn toestel vergeten….&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TXKiFrC6v7I/AAAAAAAAFjE/092HSW7vPQY/s1600-h/IMG_3229%2B%28Large%29%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: block; float: none; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: auto; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: auto" title="IMG_3229 (Large)" border="0" alt="IMG_3229 (Large)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TXKiGJdJx3I/AAAAAAAAFjI/6LqXOB2dlWw/IMG_3229%2B%28Large%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="180" height="240" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;em&gt;Yes, they do exsist! It’s a bee meeting from an internet group and it was such a lot of fun! One of the members had opened her house for us (about 20 girls) and really did a great job! There was a potluck, so everyone had brought drinks or food or soup with them and I had baked a cake yesterday. The first in many years! And it was all finished up when I left! That one was a bit better than the one we still have at home, which didn’t stand in the oven that long….very tasty but a slighty increased in volume! Everyone had done their best and it was really cosy! We had our own Show &amp;amp; Tell and I had brought my Beautiful Stars with me and the first finished top of the dolly quilts. We even had a mystery guest. It was a famous dutch male quilter with his partner and wow they gave a show and tell after our own S&amp;amp;T that was fabulous. I even brought my new blocks with me I made last week for advise and to show what I ment and I think I know how I need to make these quilts. But that will still be a suprise! You can see I have had a really good time, due to pics from the others, as I had forgotten my camera!&lt;/em&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-3883400364223172688?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/3883400364223172688/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=3883400364223172688' title='3 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/3883400364223172688'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/3883400364223172688'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/03/internet-bee.html' title='Midden Nederland Bee'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TXOHy6vz4sI/AAAAAAAAFlQ/7x3i7_nYntc/s72-c/MN_bee_eten_thumb%5B2%5D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-8863089000081503218</id><published>2011-03-03T14:12:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2011-03-03T14:28:05.175+01:00</updated><title type='text'>square in a square and courthouse step</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TW-TmRookMI/AAAAAAAAFhw/A4r8vG6okm0/s1600-h/square%20in%20a%20ssquare%20%28Small%29%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px" title="square in a ssquare (Small)" border="0" alt="square in a ssquare (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TW-TmlT97xI/AAAAAAAAFh0/QFcI5b6Xzx0/square%20in%20a%20ssquare%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" height="180" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Ik heb al een dik jaar nog twee honeybuns liggen van de serie Mill House Inn van Fig Tree (wie anders?) en ineens wist ik gisteren wat er van wilde maken!

Van elke blokje een apart quiltje maken met één honeybun of de twee blokjes samenvoegen in één quilt?&amp;#160; Wie helpt mij met dit dilemma??? Of moet ik gewoon mijn gevoel volgen en twee aparte quiltjes maken en de rode en bruine randjes alleen in de Square in a Square blokjes gebruiken? Bij de Courthouse Step wordt wel het middenste blokje een rode, als een haardvuurtje zeg maar. Dus toch een beetje pit erin en de rand wordt ook die kleur denk ik. Of is dat toch niks? Please help!!  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Ok, now in english: Above is a picture of two blocks I made last night. I used a honeybun for the strips. Now I have this dilemma which block I will make, the Courthouse Step block or the Square in a Square block, as I called the second block. I like them both, but am not sure if they fit together in a quilt very well. Or should I just make a one quilt of each block, like in the examples above? The last picture is a mix from both blocks, so it will be looking like that a bit. Of course the variation in block colors will be wider as shown here. Who wants to help me and give me some advise? Or should I follow my instincts and just make a quilt from one block and save the red and browns strips for the Square in a Square blocks. The Courthouse Step blocks will get some fire by the red squares in the center of the block and the border around the quilt will be red too. Please help!!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-8863089000081503218?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/8863089000081503218/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=8863089000081503218' title='3 reacties'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/8863089000081503218'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3641558748743004883/posts/default/8863089000081503218'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/2011/03/square-in-square-and-courthouse-step.html' title='square in a square and courthouse step'/><author><name>Craftluver Marianna</name><uri>https://profiles.google.com/109503538527161748699</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9P9Mi9m0Gro/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/nC8i83V0_TA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TW-TmlT97xI/AAAAAAAAFh0/QFcI5b6Xzx0/s72-c/square%20in%20a%20ssquare%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3641558748743004883.post-7792345270277730452</id><published>2011-03-01T22:57:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2011-03-01T23:11:31.152+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Floppy/Flopke'/><title type='text'>Heerlijke verjaardag!</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TW1vC5nvyZI/AAAAAAAAFf8/eJXtCNDml0c/s1600-h/glamour%20nest%202%20jaar%5B3%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px" title="glamour nest 2 jaar" border="0" alt="glamour nest 2 jaar" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TW1vEtqFGBI/AAAAAAAAFgA/MkG0QYCTGBw/glamour%20nest%202%20jaar_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="240" height="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Ja, zo kun je het wel noemen! En bij verjaardagen horen toch kaartjes? Dus die kreeg ze van de fokster! We zijn vandaag lekker naar het park geweest, twee uur lang en hebben heerlijk gespeeld! Super vond ze het en is zelfs nog gaan pootje baden….brrr! Thuis gekomen was baasje er al, dus dat was een leuke verrassing. Ze ging dan ook lekker bij hem liggen uitrusten! En ja, dat was het goede moment voor een lekker botje! Daarna gingen we even samen een uurtje een tukje doen! En toen was het al tijd voor het eten…voor haar speciaal rauw vlees van de slager. Normaal staat ze ook op vers vlees, maar dat is voorgemalen. Nou, deze stukjes spiervlees gingen er goed in! Jammie! En als toetje een beetje doperwten en appelmoes! Tja, ons kleine monster is nergens zo gek op, als op alles met appels! En daarna was ze toch wel uitgeteld van deze bijzondere dag en wilde al vroeg naar buiten, zodat ze daarna lekker op de bank bij kon komen en vast wat voor kon gaan slapen! Een impressie van deze leuke dag:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TW1rumE40ZI/AAAAAAAAFeI/0roKt4j973w/s1600-h/PICT1209%20%28Small%29%5B9%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="PICT1209 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT1209 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TW1rvBHD32I/AAAAAAAAFeg/Z_bi31C3ObA/PICT1209%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B7%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="194" height="153" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TW1rwXMNOuI/AAAAAAAAFeo/TvYqwBsD_lk/s1600-h/PICT1217%20%28Small%29%5B14%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="PICT1217 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT1217 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TW1rwtyjCvI/AAAAAAAAFew/9gUlQkjUv94/PICT1217%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B12%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="187" height="154" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TW1rvnfx7FI/AAAAAAAAFe0/cdJCVzpfi7Q/s1600-h/PICT1221%20%28Small%29%5B12%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="PICT1221 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT1221 (Small)" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TW1rvxFeR3I/AAAAAAAAFe8/068r9qZRnzc/PICT1221%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B10%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="194" height="154" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TW1rxEe1j6I/AAAAAAAAFfE/CiM33fdKdvM/s1600-h/PICT1259%20%28Small%29%5B13%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="PICT1259 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT1259 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TW1rxYAmz0I/AAAAAAAAFfM/r6x4BAmau3M/PICT1259%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B11%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="191" height="154" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TW1rxmy1gII/AAAAAAAAFfU/f_ilPNVjJIk/s1600-h/PICT1270%20%28Small%29%5B11%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="PICT1270 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT1270 (Small)" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TW1ryLpCaJI/AAAAAAAAFfc/L_6QORC0lVg/PICT1270%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B9%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="195" height="154" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TW1ryfuntVI/AAAAAAAAFfo/Rc7Oqz8_5NM/s1600-h/PICT1278%20%28Small%29%5B8%5D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="PICT1278 (Small)" border="0" alt="PICT1278 (Small)" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_0xrUz4c3SoY/TW1ry5fMdWI/AAAAAAAAFfs/aCBGOnn6kyc/PICT1278%20%28Small%29_thumb%5B6%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="194" height="151" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Yes, you call it a wonderful birthday! We went to the parc for 2 hours and played….She loved it and even went for a swim, brr… Back home the boss was already there, taking half the day off from work to be with his little girl,&amp;#160; and that was a big suprised and she was all joy! So she only wanted to be with him then and that was the right time for a new chewing bone, her favorite! And then we both went to bed for a small nap. After that hour it was already time for dinner and hers was extra special, raw meat from the butcher! The tiny pieces of muscle meat went straite inside without chewing even! But she did taste it…and for desert we had applesauce. She just loves everything with apple! That made her reach her end of the day as she really was tired! She wanted to go out early and layed down on the couch for a short sleeptime! The pics are an impression of this day!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3641558748743004883-7792345270277730452?l=craftluv.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftluv.blogspot.com/feeds/7792345270277730452/comments/default' title='Reacties plaatsen'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3641558748743004883&amp;postID=779234527027773
