C is for coolcrochetworkshop

Tomorrow I'm off to Marrakech.

This is a last minute project I've designed for the workshop. It's not completely finished yet, but I will try to do that on the plane.

Our kitchen palm has reached the ceiling in six months' time.

This is a picture of the chamaerops humilis when we moved it from the garden to the kitchen last October.
The weather forecast for tonight is ground frost, so we'll wait another week to take it back outdoors.

Next week I'm off to Marrakech for the 5th edition of the Cool Crochet Workshop. During our week in Marrakech, we are lucky to have the opportunity to discover 'some' of the 6th edition [not new now] of the Marrakech Biennale.

H E R E you can see an interview and the making of the chalk wall paint during the Marrakech Biennale 2014 by Guim Tio. It's my favorite wall painting in the Medina.

The Marrakech Biennale is a festival with the mission to build bridges between the cultures through the arts. To inspire outstanding artists from all over the world to create work that responds to the magical environment of Marrakech. The Marrakech Biennale, founded in 2004, is a celebration of creativity in a city that has been the focus of artistic exploration for centuries; a gathering of arts enthusiasts who organize stimulating conferences, interactive events and world-class exhibitions.

my flower girl

My flower girl Pippa made a beautiful bouquet with wild flowers for me. She has flower love in her genes.

In the mini movie below you can see Pippa at work, how fast and easy she does it...
I'm proud of my flower girl ♥
