The end is near....

Vacation is almost over...:(
Next week begins the introduction for my new study, and then the real study starts....
I hope I like it:).

In the meantime I've been spoiled:p. Look what a really really cute gift I got from my boyfriend ^^.






















And I've also been stitching! I did a lot on my mother's present! I think I've done 50% of it now:).


I'll try to update my blog more often.

Gift and skirt

I got a gift from my parents because I got my propedeuse :D.
Cat coasters from Margaret Sherry. I think the look really cute ^^.



















I didn't stitch much last week because I was making a skirt!
It's the first skirt I ever made. It's the black thing. The pink thing is a petticoat.
This was my outfit for an rock n roll party:).





















I have lots of time to stitch this week so a lots of updates I hope! Only need to find batteries for my camera and hoping that it still works after I spilled some coke over it :$.

Bye!:D

Winnie has opened his eyes to see the world!

Yes, it's true. Winnie has finally got his eyes! And I finally believe that I can finish this UFO one day!

I also stitched a bit on Tigger. I hope I can finish him somewhere this week. Then only Eeyore and lots and lots of grass...

That's al the news. Now I'm going to quit trying to write english because my head hurts like hell:(.

Bye!

About backstitching...

Yesterday I finished the little stitch project for the charityquilt.
As usual I was very exciting when I get to the backstitching. I know a lot of stitcher don't like backstitching, but I really love it! It give a great look to you're project!
Just see the difference:












I can not figure out how it's possible to not like backstitching:p.

O, and by the way: the kitty looks really cute, isn't he:D.

I also did a bit on the bookmark. Not much done yet as you can see:













And I have a new thing to ease my cross stitching!
I used to split threads with my mouth. But since I had a piercing that didn't worked very well.
So I started to look around for a threadspliters and when I saw how it works I started to create my own.

It's a really easy concept: just put something heavy under you're threads!
I have no idea how the thing I used is called in english, but for the dutch people:
It's a knijper.

I was planning to post yesterday but blogger was acting weird so it became today.

New update's on bookmark and other things is coming soon!

That's all folks!

:D

ps: I hope you all watch this site in Internet Explorer because in Firefox it looks messy sometimes!
