Greetings from Texel!!!!

Hello!!!! It's been a while since my last post... i really apologize for not visiting blogs and being behind answering mails. I've been very, very busy working so i haven't touch a needle for the last months. Last night, was able to pick up a small design and thought to look up a few pics i've completed last June to share.

Prairie Schooler ornament
32ct linen
DMC threads


Scissor fobs
from the Cross Stitcher(U.K), january 2011
Designed by: Lesley Teare
32ct linen
DMC thread 115



This is the design i started last night, printed a while back and forgot to write down who's freebie is this? Anyone know??




The living room getting filled in...the dresser for the tv, but mainly for the front living room with the arm chairs and tables.

Since working long hours, i haven't had much time for the garden, also we haven't had a good summer this year. Very windy, wet...on and off so my plants are quite a mess. Took a couple of pics this afternoon in between periods of rain.

Do hope everyone's having a good week. Things are doing well here, my two off days over and back to work for the coming days....

We missed you, Mylene! So nice to see you back again :)

Beautiful finishes and your home is looking wonderful, too--I especially love the potted hydrangeas by the front door!

So glad to see your post! Hope all is going well with you.

Your gardens are beautiful! It's too hot in summer here for most flowers. They just burn up.

So good to have you back Mylene! I really hope everything goes all right for you. I like your little ornaments and your new finish as well. Your living room looks really beautiful, the armchairs and the table go very well together and I like that you have so many plants inside. We are also planning to buy some, but never find the right place&plant. Have a very nice rest of the week!
