Sewing saturday

FEEST! La famille Victor is sinds vandaag ONLINE!
We zijn heel fier! De boekjes kan je daar stuk voor stuk bewonderen en tevens vind je er een lijst terug van al onze verkooppunten.
Ontdek die bijzondere familie en haar patroontjes!
En steek die naaimachine maar in gang!

Time to party. La famille Victor went ONLINE today!
We are so proud, the books with patterns can be purchased but also you can find there all the shops (in Belgium) where you can even watch and buy them! The english version will come up later. So meanwhile, start learning a bit of dutch and discover that special family.

 Na de stempel van gisteren heb ik nog meer zin gekregen om weer nieuwe dingen te maken, mooie dingen, dingen die me blij maken.
Na maanden van naaimaterialen tekenen, kledij en allerhande naai-gerelateerde zaken kon ik er niet langer aan weerstaan. Ben meteen een paar leuke stofjes gaan halen bij Julija's Shop en maakte deze pennenrol voor mezelf.
Happy als ik ermee ben, vol van de naaifoutjes maar alsof dat mijn geluk stuk kan maken.
Zo'n weekends zijn goud waard!

After the stampmaking I'm getting totally in the mood to create new things, nice things...

things that make me smiling.
After drawing months sewing materials, clothes and all kind of sewing related needs I couldn't resist to leave my sewing machine packed. So I went buying really nice fabrics and made a pen pocket...just for myself ;)
I'm so happy with it and sure, full of sewing errors but that cannot take my happiness away!
love weekends like this!

Baby-gift

Holiday time! So again time for other things then preparing lessons or giving workshops, running for my train, laughing with the kids and creating together with them. Time for myself, although...started this little piece that will be a gift for a newborn little girl in NYC. As you can see I'm assisted by my little black one, Dalí :) He's not very helpful and not so critical...he likes everything I do if he can lay down somewhere around me. Such a sweet little pie!

Preparing Christmas...in color!

Some while ago I made this little white figures out of airdrying-clay with cookie-cut-outs of Ikea. :) We are coming into Christmas-mode/mood, so I prepared them to hang into the tree.
Dalí can't turn off his curiosity of all those things and worser...the tree with all kind of things in it!
Also a detail of the wonderful table runner my love brought it as a gift for me from his country. I'm in love with it...such kind of creativity!!! The green box is another gift since years from Tynni and I thought it's made in the Asian world. That's the best needle and thread-box in my world! :)

Gato-pillows

A try-out with some illustrations on pillows. I would love to have them this way...hopefully very soon thanks to Envelop.eu
What do you think of them? And would you lay your head down on it? ;)
