december .....

Ahhhhhh

first day of the last month of this year

.....

a bit of winter

As I could have predicted in advance :

November was a quiet month

after the frantic activities of October.

I made some more textile jewels

(just because it was fun)

but couldn't get myself

into starting something new.

But, I had to make my last two (!) pieces

for the felting exchange.

I made the one for October first :

a (big) fish

of which I totally forgot to take pictures

before I sent him off.

Then, in the last days of November

I fi-nal-ly had the idea

for the Zodiac sign Virgo
(the September piece !)

shrunk to the right size !

It was quickly dry on the radiator
and then came the fun :
embroidery

Finished,

... and it arrived safely, I heard !

I also received one of my
last "jewels" (corsages) I asked for

Ha, it's almost like Medusa's head ...
but I like it !
Thanks Paulien !

There was more interest in it  :

Ha, ha, ha !

And in a few days
we have the children's feast
"St Nicolaas"
