I'm getting bored of winter


Its getting a little bit boring this winter, its always dark and cloudy. Although its not my character to complain for nothing, its getting a bit too somber everyday. Not to mention my husband is too eager to begin cleaning up our glass house so he can start planting. I miss flowers in the garden. I plant every year yellow and orange flowers in our front yard. This year we are planning to mix colors. I am curious how the krokus bollen going to look like. I have asked Marcel to plant it in a form of a fish. Its a way of us showing passersby that Christian people live in this house.

sewing a bolero vest

At last I have found a wikkelvestje pattern that I have seen on somebody. I bought a bolero pattern a week ago but it didn't go wel, I was hoping that I could do better this time.

My gadgets



groetjes Frouwkje vanuit Zomergem!

Ik veronderstel dat uw naam Frouwke is, yes I don't mind you sending me mails as long as geen porno flik. trouwens we kunnnen via comments communiceren.

Anyway these are the only gadgets that I have. I made it by hand. I don't have a special machine. I don't think that it is fun cross stitching with a machine.

these are the only things that you need: a pattern, DMC, scissors, cloth (aida cloth, or zweigart whatever). The only thing that is very important is patience my dearest. (enorm geduld) Patience, lots and lots of it. voila!
