Towelling jumper / Sponsen pull



Sewing pattern from here - I love Etsy and its PDF patterns from all over the world - straight to your inbox and printer, then the fun begins!

Patroontje komt van hier - Etsy is super voor PDF patroontjes, via email ontvangen en een keer alles geprint is kan de fun beginnen!


If you have been following my blog for a while then you might have a little déja-vu.  Here is the same comfy jumper once before: same pattern, but a whole size smaller and with a pocket.
      
Als je mijn blog al een tijdje volgt dan heb je misschien een déja-vu, want ja deze super comfy pull  maakte ik al eens.  Toen was hij een hele maat kleiner en naaide ik er nog een zakje op.

And I do love my little boy in blue - turquoise, teal, royal blue, cornflower blue, ...  My little sweetie, who no longer wants to nap, has stopped sleeping through the night and shouts 'Ready, steady, gooooo!' at 4.30am.

En ik zie mijn kleintje graag in't blauw -  turkoois, teal, korenbloemblauw, ...  Mijn kleine lieverd, die geen dutjes meer wil doen, voorlopig ook niet meer door de nacht slaapt en de dag wil beginnen om 4.30am.

PS - The batting, backing fabric and walking foot for the quilt arrived today!  De wandelende voet voor mijn naaimachine en de vulling voor O's lapjesdeken kwamen vandaag in de post!

    That turned out SO well! I too love to dress my little guys in all shades of blue (especially my oldest who has gorgeous blue eyes). Hopefully your little fellow will decide to start resting better!

      Thank-you :)! I thought my boy was going to be a 'green' (as daddy is a redhead) but he's definitely a 'blue'. Oh, I do hope we get some sleep soon, things are getting a little crazy here!

    mooi hoor! Waar haalde je de spons, en vooral ook die prachtige boordstof?

      Hey Leentje! De boordstof kwam van een Engels Ebay winkeltje (Neotrims), niet goedkoop maar ik vind dat hier niet in de winkels. De spons kwam van www.koekepeertje.be, ik kocht in't turkoois (en ook een fel roze in de solden) en ook een stuk navy blauwe fleece. Ook zin om pullekes te maken :)?

Claire's quilted blanket

Claire's birthday came and went back in July .  I did warn her that my light bulb moment had come a bit late (after her birthday) and that it would take a little while to sort out.  She had seen O's 'all boy' quilt and Martha's play mat and liked them both.  So why it took my brain so long to put one and two together I don't know!  Eventually realising she'd love something that combined Cath Kidston fabrics with a cottagey feel I started looking for the right things.  So I had to confess it might be a while before she got her birthday present. It was such fun looking for fabrics, putting it all together and thinking of steering away from 'just' squares and coming up with something I hadn't tried before.  I love some of the designs on this blog and often have a little admiring look around.  One day I want to be able to make such gorgeous designs! Anyway, there's absolutely nothing wrong with squares, but I fancied making something a b

Warm hearts

Lingering Winter, we've all had enough of you. You have overstayed your welcome, you have been an unwelcome guest for a while. You are not taking the hints or even pretending to be going. You like it here and are oblivious of the growing annoyance your hosts are feeling. Your skies still grey, the wind still whirling over the hills and through the streets, chilling every bone it meets and the world around us still colourless and quiet. You like your stone-cold days and wintery ways. With your freezing temperatures you are keeping Spring paralysed and the world around us strangely transparent. I have almost forgotten what the sun feels like, don't let it be too much longer ~ please. I'll be wear this scarf for Easter, all it needs is a border and the ends sewing in.

Summer quilting project - halfway

Image
Halfway through the summer, already! Slow down! Also, halfway through the 'table runner' project.  That should say table runner s though as there were just enough half square triangles to make two.  They'll go across the table rather than lengthwise.  I can't wait to have them finished and dress the table :) That leaves choosing a backing fabric, buying some wadding and pondering about binding colours.  It means a little pause this week whilst that gets sorted.
