Gifts

The weekend was sunny and sweetly breezy... Wonderful light this time of year: the green outside is lit-up in a thousand shades. Here`s how pretty the terrace looks :


No crafting apart from a bit of unsatisfactory baby-hat-sewing (the inside jeansy-material is just too sturdy for little ones I feel) on saturday morning... I`m now washing the denim with lots of fabric softener and then will tumble it in the dryer, see if that helps...
There are a couple-a-gals who`ve showered us with generous gifts. Ta so much! I love warm ethnic floral prints and beautiful Hana picked up on this. From her trip to Indonesia she brought back a batik-top for Lieveke with crochet edges. She also gave a fab bag that belonged to her gran. Oooh yippy pretty.
I`m a bit of a knitter at times and gentle Emily decided to help a little : she gave Kimberlee and me some gorgeous yarn. Kimberlee will use the thin purple-variegated wool for I-pod covers (can`t wait to see!) and I kept the rich fantastic earthy yarn, -all my favorite colors together! I think I`ve just enough for a shabby-chic winter coat for Lieveke.
