A few Hardanger pictures!

I know i had pictures of most of the hardanger pieces i've completed the year 2000-2005 and was searching for it today but i just couldn't find it. Now, i remember they were on my old website(mylene's hobby), that hubby had deleted earlier this year. That wasn't a free website and because i haven't work on it for a few years now he asked if he will delete it, i said it was okey. I didn't realise some pictures there aren't on my album anymore.
A few hardanger weren't pack yet so i took these pictures of them this afternoon, ((you can click on all pictures to enlarge if you want))







most were already packed away-i didn't want to put it all in one box. The last two dark pink table runner are in used here in the living room and in the kitchen table so that will be the last to be pack. Now, i really regret over the deleted website as i don't have pictures anymore of all the hardanger pieces i had given away as gifts before.

Yesterday was the last football tournament. Am i glad the football season's over for a while, as saturdays most part of the day were spent at the field.
We were lucky the weather was fine although very windy. It has been raining most part this week and i think these coming days too.
Here's a few pictures of the boys and at the field. Chris team finished third out of 10 teams.






No stitching update! Although i did stitched on and off in between packing but not much to show off.

Thank you all for stopping by and for taking the time to leave me a comment. I really appreciate them all. I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend.

Evchen said...

Hi, Mylene - I really could fall in love with your hardanger pieces, such a beautiful work...
I used to hardanger myself years ago and I can imagine the time you spend for this - all this has to be done in a very patient and very, very exact way, I know that...
Whenever I come to your blog I'm always full of delight about the beauty of your work.

Lots of hugs,
Evchen from Germany
