finally ...

Today 

I was  fi nal ly  visiting my dear blogging friend 

Yvette 

We made arrangements for a visit quite a few times before

but "life" always played some tricks

so we had to wait for another opportunity

but today it all worked out all right

And YES,

it was everything we thought it would be :

a long day talking as dear old friends

(what we are in some way) 

Of course we talked about felting

stitching and dyeing

in natural or more bright colours

She had a wonderful gift for me 

a lovely magic stitched pouch

and a huge piece of eco-dyed silk

The féél of that pouch ... and the stitches on it

:-)

(little highlighted marks on the back)

Mmmmmmm so happy with it, Yvette !!!

Now I can finally show what I made for Yvette :

for her I made the-very-first-ever "Rainbow pot", a blue one,

with some green sparkles inside 

(a tiny "pot of gold" at the end of the rainbow ?)

(mmmmm, Yvette can use that when the pain hurts her badly)

Here it is with some of  its friend that followed

(because I got a bit carried away with that first little pot)

But because Yvette and I "met"at Jude's Spirit cloth place

(and Jude = stitch for me)

there had to be a lot of stitches on the pot

Thén the first choice of beads had to come off

but finally :

all finished.

(I don't think it was a coincidence that blue is Yvette's favourite colour ...) 

Yvette,

THANK YOU

for a lovely day
