for the sweetest

You can find this tiny pink waistcoat in my E T S Y shop.
The pink yarn comes from Marrakech, b o u g a i n v i l l e pink.

For those who prefer to make one themselves, the pattern is also available in English and Dutch.

At Henk's office there is an annual photo competition for the staff.
The five winning photos are printed on canvas and then exhibited in the office building for a year.

One of the winning entries was this picture of the garden flowers we picked for last goodbye to granddad in the summer of 2012.

Henk took the canvas home last week and Pippa wanted it very much in her bedroom.

The flowers look great in the room of our flower girl!

celebrate summer

Summer is coming!

To celebrate summer, I made a pastel cotton ---S-U-M-M-E-R-G-A-R-L-A-N-D---.
I love summer! Days get longer, hair gets lighter, fruits get sweeter and life gets better!

Bye the way; the round 'target' pillow is the other side of the 'eight wedges' pillow!
