During the last 4 days...

...I was left without telephone line at home to my telephone company...so no Internet, no mail, no one distraction...so I can show some progress I made in the Pixie medallion...

...just to give you (and me too) an idea on how it will turn out.

...and a new fabric collection I received.

I bought a pre-cuts Layer Cake and a Charm Pack maybe for the first time...

...what do you think about pre-cuts fabrics?

...for now I'm crazy for the this running after the ball dogs!

Pincushions mania

...from Dreaming Spring

The sweet of life

In the Valentine's day I tell you something about friendship.

With the mail I received today a super cute packet (did you notice the nice ribbons?)...

...inside a sweet note and a beautiful and precious pincushion made just for me by my friend (can I say that of us?) Hilde.

We never have met us in person, but I feel her as a "old" friend and our understanding run over the mails.

See her work closer...it's wonderful, isn't it?

Thank you again!

Pssst...she is the author of this books!

By the way I show you the second pixie I made...

...and what I'm thinking for the inner round...

Not only hexies...

...but also pixies (look for the great tutorial here) ...

Thank you Hilde!

...and pentagons rosettes...


...all made with the Liesels technique I have learned into this wonderful book. It explain all about pentagons projects and I received it last week as birthday gift from my friends.

The authors (Liesel and Hilde) have made also another book with all the secrets to make perfect hexie. I posted here something about it. I love both the books and I'm enchanted by the quilts the authors made. So magic!

About my work I recognize the back is no perfect...I can make better, I know...

Front side... I prefer... :-)

Dreaming Spring

It's still winter but we have some days as Spring weather.

Also in patchwork I want something new and this book is just perfect with my feeling.

Spring colors and wonderful project for the happiness of the eyes!

The book language is nor Italian nor English nor German but Danish. Definitely I don't speak Danish but I have to say that all the North European languages have words with the same root and the same meaning and this helps....for all the remainder experience helps!

My face

I share my face with you once a year in the day of my birthday.

I do that to give you an idea of my face and how I 'm changed in a year.

I'm 46 tomorrow and this is a really good time for me.

I'm grateful with life for this.

I have played with the pic texture just to hide a bit wrinkles and winter color skin...

...excuse me ;-)

Fabrics

Could I resist to buy this super cute fabrics?

I couldn't!
