My in-laws live by a lake here near Grenoble, and every 5 or 10 years, the lake freezes deep enough to make it safe to walk and skate on it. Lucky for us, this time we didn’t miss it. It was amazing. I never liked ice-skating before, you know, boring. This was sooooo different. We […]

On thursday, while hiking with my husband, I had a sudden inspiration: Baby Babouches !! They were so easy to make, just downsizing my pattern. Now I only need to work out the sizing. :-) Both girls were invited to birthdays last week, so we had a crafty morning together. The little one sewed a […]

Plume is going to a birthday this afternoon. We decided we would sew her friend a little book cover with felt. Then the little sister wanted to sew as well, and it was a good occasion. I made her sew a wing on a little felt bird (her first ever sewing !) and she managed […]

Summer holidays have come and gone, we had a lovely time in the south of France, rested, swam, spent time with friends… I crocheted lots of granny squares as samples for my “Around the granny square” ebook. And would have finished my second Camelia purse but for missing yarn. Then this week was the “Rentrŕ©e”: […]

We spent a few days in Annecy this week, which was a great occasion to see familiar sights and see again some dear friends. Was really nice ! I’m also just about done with the new purse, and finalising the pattern to release it to testers soon. I know it doesn’t look like a lot […]

Summer is finally here, and we are enjoying it very much. Spending as much time as we can outside, often at the chalet… which will explain the lack of blogging. :-) I never thought I’d enjoy gardening so much and our little “experimental” garden (our first ever trial) is growing quite well. We already ate […]

Trying to take photos of my workspace, and laurent makes fun of me. Of course I’d love it to be tidy and organised. But let’s face it. I am all but tidy and organised. …Call it creative ! ;-) Our current place is much roomier than the previous one, but I still don’t have a […]

It was Easter school holiday here in France, and after many changes of plans, we managed to go down to the south (towards the Riviera) for a few days. Not the warmest days we’ve had there, but still enough for the girls to finally wear their summer dresses, and even dare walking in the freezing […]
