Knitting again

It takes me about two days to knit a wash cloth and they can always be used for dishes if it feels to rough to some ones skin.





Here are my new wash cloth I knitted for my friend Doris and myself. She liked the way it felt to her skin so she asked me to make some for her.Surprise when wet they feel like sand paper but in a good way.Ha ha you will not need a peeling mask after using them.

New colors for this summer

And here is the coverlett. I do like the maroccan influence in the color and design.
This is the new set of green sheets with Duvet covers from germany and pillows.I was glad they match very well.




Here are the pictures of my new sheers and curtains.They are a little longer then I like them,so next weekend I will shorten them.

Summer quiltie




This is the summer quiltie from my Art 4 mail group . It is from Marijke in Holland.I have not even started mine and she has hers already mailed.It is so me! How did she know I collect frogs, love any shade of green and the embroidery?Thank you Marijke also for the postcard. So nice of you to tell me a little about yourself. All my postcards are under a heavy plastic on my dinning table. This way I can always dream a little when I look at them.

Taking it easy

Darlene was quicker and made another Blue & White block for the Asian RR.So I changed my colors to reds.The black blocks look very gray and I have tried several times to take different shots at it,but always the same results.


This weekend I will be taking it easy.I decided to clean my studio,to make more room for more Art.Did some laundry because I got a big package from Germany ,2 sets of Duvet covers with pillow cases, sheers and curtains,bed cover and table runner.I was in heaven when the second package arrived today from Georgia with wonderful gift`s.Finished my Asian Block for the next RR and my Black Blocks for the DYB Jewels on Black.

We exchanged them every month while my family lived in Germany.I made all the tree blocks and decided to finish the quilt as a wall hanging .I don`t like to admit,but there are many more UFO`s waiting to be finished and I will try to get working on my next one soon!

my new bath room. They stand out just enough to be noticed. I was lucky to find this store http://www.etsy.com/shop/supremedecals

Fall DYB Blocks


And this is my set of blocks for the Fall DYB RR.I changed my color palette for these a little by adding the purple and a little more vibrant colors then I did last year with my blocks.
