bewellandstitch...

 Last year i had completed 8 of the complimentary charts that was graciously offered by different designers for #bewellandstitch.  Here's #09..i had stitched beginning of this year and finally finish into a pinkeep.

Here's all of the pieces i finished from different designers.
Had made a bit of progress on Chalk ip up Sampler, this is my first stitching on black fabric..i do like how it is turning out but it is not really my favorite colour to stitch. I find it a bit difficult to work on it
Before and into the weekend we had family/friend for dinner came and stay..luckily i got a week off from work, though i had actually other plans but having family and spoiling them with my cooking was also fine as we don't see them otfen.
Was able to go out for a walk once and so lovely to see lots of Daffodils everywhere, along the roads, in the farmlands, bushes..this picture below took it during my walk at the small forest here, when i noticed there were different kinds.
Hope everyone's having a lovely week!
Many thanks for stopping by and the lovely comments.

...out & about mood, thus less stitchimg moments...

 First of, many thanks for stopping by and leaving me a comment, i do really appreciate it. Haven't taken the time to search to a better lay out to my liking, did try a few but still not satisfied and i am actually illiterate when it comes to working on my laptop. 


The other weekend came my daughter with her boyfriend for dinner. Quite abrupt when she texted at midday that they are coming to the island and fine if they come to dinner...sure, always welcome that is if i am off from work. Well, had a few hours then for thinking what to prepare, going for groceries and then cooking. Glad i made it in time..a few asian dishes.





 A day after came my son with his girlfriend for dinner, thus cooking mood continous. I love spoiling them when i can and try to prepare what they like everytime they come which is not often anymore as they both living on the mainland due to their studies. The horse card i stitched for my son's girlfriend for her b-day. She works at giving riding lessons here on the island.



Last sunday, was quite sunny and i wanted to go in search of tulip fields here on the island. We've only encountered a couple of fields but most were still daffodils and hyacinths. So i think the tulips still all flowering yet.






Yesterday, we went to the mainland to visit a family, and on the way we've seen quite many flower fields..Lots of Daffodils as well as hyacinths, here and ther tulips fields and lots are still greenish, still a while before they will bloom. And since temps goes down coming days i think it will slow them to bloom.

We've been for a walk at one of the nature monuments nearby the family we visited and WOW! what a spread of Lily of the valley in some areas.. i can imagine the beauty of them when they open up.  Seen a squirrel quite near us and seems like not really afraid of people. Saw a couple of deer grazing and quite some flowers blooming. Such a lovely area for a walk.

After the visits to the flower fields, it prompted me to work on this project, i can say i made quite a good progress with it.
That is all for now and hope everyone having a lovely week.
