Stitched and finished this one last July and sent it out the beginning of August so i hope it reach Canada by now and that the reciever likes it. Haven't heard from her yet, probably they are still on holiday. I am sorry the pictures were blurred. I haven't checked it out before sending the piece away.
July block was done which took me nearly a week to complete instead of two evenings. I can only stitch a few minutes in the evening these days...
See what the strong winds had done to my flowers the other day. Took a few pics. a couple of days ago wanted to share how lovely they are and the next day...was ruined!
Only the sedums and the fuschia remains well.
A few said, me and my sister Jane looks alike so i went to look for pictures of us together but i've found only this one which was taken during our last visit together at home last december 2004. All the albums were all brought to the storage room so i couldn't find more as i know we had some during her visit here years ago.
These pictures were taken during one of our outings with some of our family.
Breaking was started...hubby has been stripping off the walls and floor of the playroom, next to the kitchem room. He wanted to find out where the leakage comes from as it sometimes wet and it smells. It sure is getting empty here, both kids computer were packed away and mine will be next this weekend. He will be leaving for sea next week, so just me and the kids to go to the summer house we rented a few days after he leaves. He wanted to ask the owner if the house has access to the internet he wanted to bring his computer over there but we still have to find out later this week. We had booked the place till Christmas so it will be a while before everything goes back to normal!
Thank you all so much for the lovely comments over my last post. I really appreciate them all.

I hope the summer house has internet line so I can read more of your post. :) Lovely family pictures. Grace and Chris were so cute! :) You and your sister do look alike, both are beautiful and sexy. Beautiful flatfold you've make, the pink flowers are lovely and great progress on your LK July block, so whimsical and colorful. I hope you and your husband will solve the water leaking problem. Take care dear.
ps: Congrats to your sister and her family, your new nephew is cute and adorable.
the flat fold is so pretty Mylene!! You do such beautiful work....I sure hope it arrived by now & the new owner has just been to busy to post.
That is too bad about the flowers. We had very strong winds here the other night as well.
Yes, you & Jane do look very similar, but yet different!!!
Sure hope your renovations go quickly & that you do have internet access at the rental home!!!!!
What a lovely flatfols you made, and a cute design. The flowers in that photo are so beautiful. Your SAL pieces are progressing well. I want to finish Bumba first, before I go further. To bad of your garden flowers, here we only have rain rain rain, so everything is wet, but yours are still beautifull....
When you are togheter on the pictures you look more different. Love al the photo's from Asia....
Good luck with house, it will be a busy time... Try to enjoy also..

Lovely pictures and what a fab flatfold finish. x
Love the flat fold finish and your WIP is coming along nicely. Wonderful pictures.
Love the flat fold Mylene! I am sure Suzanne will love it! Hopefully she has received it by now.
Your LK is comming along nicely!
Your flowers are beautiful! My hygrangia has grown big with lots of leaves and no flowers :( Maybe it is just waiting for the cooler temps. I fertilize it so I am at a loss as to why I only had 1 flower head all summer :(
I hope you will have internet at the summer house. I will certainly miss hearing from you!
Hugs
Your stitching is just beautiful. I love the flatfold.
I do hope you have internet at the cottage. Or that your renovation is done quick and you back home long before Christmas.
Love the flat fold finish and your WIP is coming along beautifully. Wonderful pictures of you and your sister. Hope you manage to sort out the internet problem.
The flatfold is beautiful! I love the July Lizzy Kate as well, those designs are such fun to stitch! I did not realize that you had heavy winds that destroyed some of your plants, that is a shame about that. The pictures of your family and your sister's family is amazing as well, both you and your sister are beautiful women! I hope that all goes well when you move to the summer house soon.
Your flatfold is beautiful, and I love the July stamp.
Such a shame about your poor flowers, but the hydrangea should recover, I live in a very windy place and they thrive here.
Hope your temporary home has an internet connection
The flatfold is just beautiful Mylene and your LK stamps are great! Pity about what happened to your flowers - they were so pretty. Hope you have internet in your 'new' home!

Congrats on your flatfold and LK finish, Mylene. The FF turned out really pretty. Great family photos. Sorry to hear about the winds damaging your flowers -- I've had that happen, too. :(
Your little flat fold is darling. I love this idea, and should try finishing something like that sometime!

Lovely work! Also loved the family photos :)
Your flatfold is adorable! Really lovely =)
Have a great weekend!!
Pretty stitching. I love the way you do a flatfold with the narrow back stand.
Always fun to look at your family photos.
Hope the move to the summer house goes well and have a good weekend!
Your finish is so pink and pretty, Mylene--your work is always so lovely!
Your July block is perfect--nothing better than a juicy watermelon in the middle of summer.
You have a very nice looking family!
Oh wow that flatfold is SOOOO pretty! and the stamp! and the flowers! and your family!
everything's pretty except the leakage, lol! Hope you find the problem fast :D
Your flatfold is gorgeous. To bad your beautiful flowers were ruined. We had to replace a couple of walls in our bathroom because of a shower leak, what a mess it was.
Hello Mylene,
Congratulations on your flatfold. Hope the renovations all work out. Wind can do a lot of damage to plants, it is a bit like saying "you should have been here last week when everything was flowering"
Hope you get the internet connections worked out.
Happy stitching.

The L*K's are looking great.
I hope your summer house does have internet and the repairs to your own can be done really quickly
Wat een leuke flatfold heb je gemaakt Mylene en wat zijn je bloemen mooi!!!
Je zus en jij lijken heel erg op mekaar.... mooie foto 's heb je gemaakt!!!
Succes met de verbouwingen...

Ack, I hope the summer house has internet!! I think I'd go into withdrawal without my 'fix'. Lovely stitching, Mylene! I especially like the flat fold.
I love the way that you finished your flatfold. I'll have to try that way sometime too. Your outings look like a lot of fun. I hope your summer house has the internet.
Love the flatfold! The stamps are really moving along. Great work!
