28th Februari


tulips on the kitchen counter

Thank you for all the get well wishes, I'm feeling much better now...luckily!
It's a rainy last day of Februari...just where did this month go??
What exactly did I do this month..were there any finishes??
Nope, nothing to add to the one project a month list.

But, I crochet squares..76 so far.

I'm hooked! Crochet hooked that is!

This morning Heleen and I went to a local fleamarket.
We love sniffing around..hope to find treasures.
I found these gorgeous potholders, crochet dresses.

I have the most lovely teapot I use for serving tea....

It's the same most lovely teapot I use as a vase for flowers......

purple, pink and white tulips

From this moment on I can only say USED FOR....
Because....
Look, there is a hole in the pot!!
A hole in my most lovely teapot!

look for the hole

I have only myself to blame (luckily for my family members, LOL).
Well, I suppose I'll get over it....

Craft news, I added more squares to this granny blanket (it will become a blanket). I only use wool from leftover projects found on my mothers attic.

And here is a house keyhanger.
I made several before to give away as a gift.

granny squares


in case I made you curious about that wool on my plate (previous post).
I picked up the crochet needle again, found some pretty wool and start crocheting squares.

Lots and lots of wool to make many more squares.

afghan for a doll stroller

I’m not a very good, adventurous or fast crochetter, but TADA!!!...See here I finished the afghan I made for Luca's doll stroller.
I know the crochet squares seems a bit crooked here and there. Still I can't care less and love it anyway! Now I'm on the look out for fabric that goes well with the afghan to make matching bedding.
Luckely I don't have to hurry, Luca can't push the stroller yet. Instead she love to sit in it and let herself pushed around by someone else...in high speed that is!

Have a wonderful day!

The weather is great for making long walkes on almost empty beaches.

I discovered another "Zeeuws meisje".
She is bleached out of sitting in the sun for to long.

And thanks to this great tutorial from Lucy of attic24 I learned how to crochet granny squares. Thanks Lucy for your clear pictures and instructions.

That's it for now, the sun is calling to come outside.
