Signing back

Hi friends, we are finally settled and well rested, Thanks to the moderate warm temp. here in the countryside it helps a lot when we are still adjusting from cold to warm. Lots of sorting out job tonight coz' my threads are still put together in one sack. Got to do a lot of sewing too before the holidays. I should benefit every hour I spend home in using my sewing stuff here. I was too excited being here, the first thing I did is plant some veggies, I hope to be able to grow some squash and string beans before the summer, and some peppers too. Oh well, I could bubble and bubble all night, but I surely have to begin the actual work I am talking about.

Signing off for an indefinite period

Before I signed off I would like to share my new finds. Christmas motiff frebbies from plumpudding needle art. Ciao

Latest updates plus a few of my sewn pieces for presents

Last updates on my ABC Stitch pattern from designworks, as u can see I started at the middle right corner going to the left as I always used to when I stitch bigger pattern. I'll be signing off for an indefinite period of time until I am settled at home back in my land of birth. I presume that upcoming Christmas is going to be a huge event.  And we will be taking a lot of time visiting friends and families. Anyway below are my latest sewn pieces for the last two months. I actually worked hard and have more to show but I wasn't able to take Photo's before I sent them with the box.

I am a little bit proud that my sewing skills is getting better and better. I only need to focus on one thing at a time. My multi-tasking habbit drives my hubby crazy and says I am still busy even when I sleep.

I am an avid fan of Ottobre Design Kids, these patterns comes form different books. I'll be detailing each one in my finished page soon. I hope the kids from home likes it. 

I made these out of scraps

This one is supposed to be a romper but it also looked nice as an everyday dres

A bit tricky with the collar but it was worth it.

Stitching ABC

Just an update of what I currently stitchin

Last updates on my Autumn for this month

I've wanted to finish it badly before we left Belgium but I run out of threads. So it landed on my UFO's. I'll be doing my ABC stitch pattern from a Belgian friend starting tomorrow and will be bringing all my UFO's so that I can work on them until they are finished. I'm working well on my Christmas cards, although I probably show them only after I've sent them away to its recipients. 

I would also love to begin with this lovely free pattern from Nathalie's Jardin prive' as soon as I collected all the stuff I needed. I probably wait until I arrived in the Philippines so that I can buy my materials there. It will cost me a lot lesser than here of course.

Its so lovely, if there is anyone who had not seen this before you can find it  HERE  in 4 deals pdf/word format in french, english, italians and spanish language. Thanks to Ms Nathalie. It will be fantastic if I can make it in dutch (Nederlands too.)

Counting down for Christmas holiday

Its always nice to look forward on something else rather than everyday to-do-list. As I have mentioned on my older post, I havelots of plans in the future. Inclusive in my agenda is working on different themes. One of the themes is occassions.
