The hood for the long-awaited adult version of the Ermeline is now done, and I reaaaaally like it. Especially when worn loose on your back. (sorry, couldn’t take any decent pics)
It’s actually so pretty I thought of getting directly into the cardigan version, except I don’t have enough of that red yarn to [...]
It’s freezing cold these days (yet still no snow at all!) and a little walk with my SIL was a good occasion to snap some pics of my new hat this week-end:
My Girouette slouchy hat looked very pretty on her. The pattern is in the final testing phase, then I’ll add it to the [...]
Hello !! First let’s start with wishing everyone a fantastic New Year ! May 2011 be a joyful and crafty year, with good health for you and your family and friends !! 2010 has been a bit trying for my family, so I hope this new year will bring good things and joy and [...]
Slouchy hats have blossomed everywhere lately, and I always thought Bah, not for me.
Then my sil asked if I could make her one. Of course, I love hints on what they’d like for Xmas. :-)

Any fun (& crafty!) plans during those holidays in [...]
Last sunday we had a table with my friend (she’s a photographer, come see one of her expos if you’re around !) at the local Xmas market. It was my first market ever, and slightly intimidating: I still don’t know that many people around but felt like a coming-out “Hello, I am a [...]
On saturday we had our first sewing workshop, together with a few friends to “test the waters”: I was surprised to see it actually took us nearly 3 hours to have everyone finish their first pad. And with none of them being an expert sewist, more attention was needed from me at each [...]
I made a treasury list on Etsy: I loooooove Matryoshkas ! :-)
Which leads to showing you a glimpse of the 2 skirts I made lately… More on those later. :-)
Have you ever thought about trying to sew your own reusable sanitary cloth pads ?
