Customise

I have not done much cross stitching lately, but a bit of crochet and embroidery.

My brown dress needed a little touch to uplift and to make it reveal a bit less of the "decoltée". The V neck was lightly too low, so rather than not wear the dress, I customised.

And the last few pounds put on has made me unable to wear another certain dress that I love very much, a little let-in was necessary, here was my solution.



Quite warm over here, is it that hot at your place?

Enjoy summer, hope the heat will refresh soon.

Fireworks Bastille Day!

From a little walk in Paris and enjoying summer!


PS. Not my car, seen in central Paris.

WIP and cherry picking

My WIP is almost finished, just needs making into a card now.

And recently we were cherry picking, had a marvellous time!

Wishing you all a lovely weekend,

WIP and some baking

I am back to my Christmas projects, and hope to prepare a few cards now so as not to be too rushed when the holiday time comes. I have found this image on a blog, cannot remember which though (sorry!) and loved the idea, struggling to sew it, but getting there. Perhaps not a perfect one, but I love it anyway.


And today I did a bit of baking, mini savoury madeleines with red pesto and parmigiano cheese, yummy!


Have a lovely weekend everyone,

One nice finish

And a big smile, framed and all.


My WIP is in a too early stage to be shown, but maybe this weekend. I am leaving you with this sweet picture from London, too cute indeed.


Wishing you all the best,

Lost in post :-((

My latest gift for an internet friend has been lost in post, such a shame, however Marta, I am still wishing you good luck with your exams! So sorry your surprise did not materialise.


Take good care and congrats for your good news!

Love,
