Fabric Gift Holder

 Hello my dear friends,
as you may know my sewing skills aren't the best but may I proudly present to you my first fabric gift holder?
  
I'm really happy with the results:)  You can click on the photo for a better view.

The inside has two pockets to hold small gifts. It was so much fun I can see more in the making.
The old glasses below were a recent find at the flea.

 The peonies are starting to bloom and look so beautiful.

As usual I'm running behind with my visits to you and will try to catch up tonight.

Wishing you all a wonderful start of the week and as always thank you so much for stopping by and for taking  the time to leave me a comment.

Hugs and love,

Song of Spring

 Hello my dear friends,
birds singing outside my window inspired me to start a collage using one of the bird images from my book and I'm really pleased with the results. Although it still needs a little bit of work  I want to give you a sneak peek :)

Yesterday I received a surprise in the mail  which I would like to share with you. Dear Katherine @ Chatelet
spoiled me with this beautiful nest card.

I just love the tiny nest she created - can you see the little feather ? I assume customs liked it as well since they kept it for quite some time.

This gorgeous Easter egg is all covered in lace and decorated with pearls. 

Thank you so much, dear Katherine - it was so sweet of you to think of me.

Wishing you all a wonderful rest of the week and thank you so much for stopping by. 

Hugs and love,

Creams and Whites

Hello my dear friends,
I was in a sewing mood and created this bag for my vintage scissors. Not perfect but I still like it.

Simple but elegant and just for fun I created the  fabric collage below.

I still can't leave comments on some Blogs and can't figure it out. Any help is very much appreciated.

Wishing you a wonderful week and thank you so much for stopping by.

Blogging Trouble

Hello my dear friends,
just a short note to let you know that I'm having problem leaving comments on some of your Blogs which is very frustrating. Any of you experiencing similar problems? After spending a lot of time writing comments and thinking being caught up with you I got notified via email that my message was not deliverable.

I found a nice book on birds at the flea and would like to share two of them.

Have a lovely day and thanks for stopping by. I hope to resolve the problems real soon.

Hugs and love,

Lovely Gifts From a Dear Friend

Hello my dear friends,
no, it is not my Birthday but I felt like a Birthday girl when I received a parcel from my friend Dorthe @
Den Lille Lade and I'm sure most of you know dear Dorthe and her beautiful creations. Actually I should have said it felt like Christmas as we both deceided to exchange gifts in the Spring.

                                                      Isn't the  card just lovely?

I just adore the beautiful fabric collage Dorthe created for me but that is not all she spoiled me with:)

I was lucky enough to receive one of her signature dolls - a frozen charlotte angel - made just for me.

Isn't she gorgeous? All dressed up so pretty and so many details Dorthe created for her.

Beautiful fabric beads and wire wrapped with tiny pearls are just one of the details.

Thank you so very much again,dear Dorthe and you know how much I love everything you spoiled me with.

Unfortunately I didn't take photos what I sent out to Dorthe but you can see it on 

Dorthe's Blog Den Lille Lade and please tell her I said hello.

Wishing you a wonderful start of the week and as always thank you so much for stopping by.

Will catch up with you tonight.

Hugs and love,
