Spring...

The first flowers in my garden............

I love the first colours outside....

hopefully wintertime is over... :-)

today I sewed this Trapunto bag, I need a gift for a dear friend.
Of course I made pics of the sewing and will post them this WE

Strippy batik

The owner of this quilt on her dog Jacky.......

I also changed the decoration in our living-room, a serie of small quilts on plexiglass,,,,

Strippy batik...

Joëlle's quilt is on the frame, ready to be quilted....
That's all I have done this WE, yesterday I was in Germany to move Joëlle from her old appartment to another, bigger one...ouff....

Some pics of quilts hanging in my studio...
this one was a birthday present from my friend Rita, who passed away some years ago by leucemia.
I love this little quilt.....

another very small quilt, taped to a closet to give a little bit of colour to the sewing room :-).

.......

I made this white egret more than 12 years ago....

Sheep pincushion tutorial...

I just found on this site a cute sheep pincushion with scissor and measuring tape holder.
She has a PDF file with the tutorial in German and English.
It is a must-have for all pincushion-lovers! :-)

A few days ago I posted a link : dyeing with rust...
I'm "rusting"...... I have to give it a try...

Inside...I cut batik stripes and Joëlle is laying out the stripes (she needs another little quilt for her new couch) ;-)

the first colorway she tried.......

and the next (multicolour)....

Hmmm.....?

she decided to like the left one...and a black background....
what do you think?
