New knitting Project

Beautifull colours... for this knitting project I haven't started yet but will soon. I look to it every now and then. To wear it in Wintertime I have to start knitting now..... first a few blocks of the quilt and then.... perhaps...at least reading the pattern !!!

Update Civil War dairy Quilt

Hiring help with some batering pg 245. A block with bigger pieces I am so happy I can use my favourite fabrics and colours... if I

like pink, yes I do a lot in quilts esspecially the double pinks !

Update CWD

Chaterine Island pg 215, I choose to change the colours of the block but also to make it geometric, I like it much better this way, although I don't believe you will see it when al the blocks are finishes it are so many.....

Update cwd

Flag of Truce pag 229 I have about 60 blocks now and still almost half way or just over, but about 60 blocks to go as well ....

Update CWD

Spinning and Knotting pag 249, I changed the light blue colour in a flowerpattern, it suits me more this way

Hen-House

What did I do lately... working, working, working but also an other project. We liked to have hens and so we had to make a house for them. We painted the wood, inside ivory, outside green. It looks like a "zaans huisje". We now are the proud owners of two chickens. And we have so much fun with them, we have them from 7 weeks on, and they grow fast. The eggs will not come untill somewhere in september ofcourse I will tell you !!!
