The Easter SAL & "playbackshow" pics of Chris.

Completed part 4 last saturday plus another scissorfob with the same design.((click on the pics to enlarge)).





Chris and his friends joined the "playbackshow" here at the village which was held earlier this month. They did a song from one of the groups here locally which was about "teenagers". They had their own interpretation of the song or how do you call it "dance moves" and did it very well. They won the "originaliteit's prize", just as last year! The same group of friends and same prize. Quite a lot of children, 15 in all in their categorie so we didn't expect they will have a prize.
Picture below was when they were practising here in the living room.

Pictures taken during the show doesn't look that good. I don't know if it is of my camera or th background.



Finally, hubby is coming home tomorrow after six weeks away this time. He just arrived in Aberdeen today! He has to bring the new ship from Italy to Aberdeen and i think it took them 12 days. I am really glad they arrived safely and will be home soon.
He will be home a couple of days and off again, to the next island as he has to follow a course for a week over there. Not happy, he has to leave again but it is needed for his job.

Thank you all for visiting and all the lovely comments. I really appreciate them all. I might not be around much these few days but hope to catch up next week.

Mylene, I love the smalls that you made to go along with the Easter SAL. They look wonderful. The frog ornie is really cute. Who is the designer for this one ?? I would love to stitch it one day. Congratulations to your children for their win. It is nice to see creative children. Enjoy your time with your hubby home.

Oh Mylene - your "extra" finishes of novalee's SAL are so charming and lovely - I always wonder how you manage all these works in that short time-period.
I simply need this time only for catching up the SAL parts.. :-)
But it's a lot of fun for me, too.

Hugs, Evchen from Germany
