SeasonsGreetings

This time I stitched a small project. It is designed by Donna Kooler and is from her book Cross Stitch Designs (page 57). The book includes 333 Patterns for  Ready-To-Stitch Projects but of course you can stitch them where ever desired. I used left over 14 Count Rustico Aida (shade Oatmeal) fabric and loose end threads.

MeetingTheHedgehog

I was going through some pics on MyComputer and found something I have not show you yet. In August Nuka met very close and brave a visitor in MyGarden. We have hedgehogs every year. Mostly they have learnt to avoid the fenced area. This time Nuka found one in HerTerritory and what a noise it turn out. She couldn't understand why it stings Her nose when She just wants to find out who that weird creature is.

Hanging Wild Ducks

It is hard to say how much money or nature resources I have saved when creating these special HomeMadeCards. This time I used a picture found at an old hunting magazine. It is a picture of Wilhelm von Wright's painting Hanging Wild Ducks (1851). The background paper is from an old dictionary.

AAW Collar No1

I designed and knit a warm collar by using our own AAW snag grey yarn (40% our own ethic produced arctic angora wool, 40% FinnSheep wool, 10% arctic dog wool and 10% nylon). I used HorseshoeCables to decorate the front side.

The flap of the back side has as many stitches as the front side flap but I wanted it to stand wider and protect shoulder area better. That's why I used only the basic stitch knit when knitting. Every stitch is just knit with that on each row so it forms out this structure instead of plain and doesn't get rolled up from the edges. I also crocheted the flap edges to prevent it to get rolled up.

PinkGarden

It has come the time to make the last sachets for this season. This is the mix of fabulous scents from MyGarden&House. Especially pink rose petals create wonderful memory of the summer.

These my own design rose scent sachets are perfect to be hidden in your most secret pieces of clothes.
