Update crochet and embroidery

Last saturday there was the Songfestival, when I was 17, 18 19 years old I always crochet a bag during this contest... well I am definitely older but also a lot slower I can't imagine how I did it in one evening, this is as far as I am ...... but it is so much fun to do.... so I don't mind at all

This are the colors i am working with and the pattern is from Attic24., I really love her blog and the things she makes are so colorful,  C recommended me this site and I really like it a lot.

I need some stitches do you know that feeling.... well I had it... after the sampler of atelier perdu I didn't had something new.... but since it is really dark and grey in holland I thought, well why not already start with a christmas sampler, it are such nice colors and lovely to do... so two total different projects this time.... happy stitches !!!

Upate embroidery and quilting ....

And a little finish, I changed it a little normally it is with orange but as you know I prefer pink and there is a curved line under needleworker. And what will it be..... it is not going on my wall but it is still a secret what it is going to be .....

Progress of my quilt it has to be 5 x 7 blocks and as you see only 7 more to go..... 

Today it was mothersday and I am so happy I got a wonderful book from One of my favourite authors Santa Montifiore a lovely little set from my youngest today she also made a t-shirt with a poem and a text on it, next time I will make a picture of that and a picturebook of my oldest with our last holiday !1 what a lovely gifts and a lovely day xxx
