Catching up

Hello everyone, It's been over a month since my last post! Thanks for al the lovely mails and visits while I wasn't blogging (I did take a peek every now and then).
And now, yes I know, there's a lot of catching up to do.

First there was my son's 13th birthday. (it's unbelievable, I remember his birth like it was yesterday.)
There were curtains I promised to sew for my niece her baby-room, from the left-overs I made her this,



Then there were two long weeks of vacation, we went away with the caravan to the coast. Finally there was the Sun, And it was so great! We Searched for shells,



walked on the beach, the kids were having fun with their skimboards, their was lots of reading and of course we had the greatest meals and bbq.
After these wonderfull weeks we threw ourselfs in school and working life again. And it's today I finnaly have the time to catch up with blogging live! The matroushka quilt is waiting all these weeks patiently to be finished, and it has to wait a litlle longer because I wanted to make these two summer-matroushka's,



(I'm sorry but I just cant get enough of matroushka's) I love their bright colours!
And talking about bright colours, look what my mother made!



She took some bright coloured fabrics from her famous attic and sew all little fabrics together and made this storage bag. Isn't it a beauty!

Well, there is more to show and tell but I have to go now.
Have a great weekend everyone!
