Brown

Brown
I had a bit of a finishing week. The type where you finish a few projects...sad but very satisfying. You may notice the brown theme...well we all have murky brown eyes here so brown/green works well. I now need to convince my daughter that the skirt is...

Pour faire la fete

Fallait bien faire la fête aussi. Alors pour faire venir le printemps j'ai fait dans la couleur. En suivant les mesures du gabarit, on peut faire 3 petits drapeaux par feuille A4. There had to be a party too. So, to hurry the spring colour was in order....

We have not been back 5 minutes from our holidays that my big one got hold of a box to make a...crane. A working crane at that. Whenever he does something like that (often), that makes me feel better about how strict i am about his computer playing time....

Love that kid

Love that kid
I could play it mysterious, use carefully chosen words but I am not good at that. No, the real problem is that (sorry I am translating here a French expression) I have my arse between two chairs. I know it is not very elegant but blow me it sums up the...

Cats

Cats
Not sure I like cats anymore. Well it seemed like a good idea to get a cat especially for Thing 2 (new little names for my children: Thing 1 and Thing 2 as my husband calls them anyway. Yes he has read the Cat in the hat once too often it seems). Back...

Dancing

Dancing
Not much crafting done because of the holidays of my little ones. But instead, lots of baking, cuddling, drawing, inventing and...some serious dancing. It that called happiness? C'est les vacances, donc pas beaucoup de couture mais a la place, plein de...

Watch for pirates!
A little bit about my weekend: BBQ with friends with imported merguez. For those who don't about them, they are the most delicious spicy lamb sausages coming from the north of Africa. They are readily available everywhere in France but I have never found...

Petit message

Petit message
Putting a message on a bag has been an idea for a while but I did not have at the time suitable fabric and...time. However the post that Lola Addict wrote recently has put the idea back at the forefront of my mind. So this morning I got to work and this...

Proud mummy

Proud mummy
When I started this blog, me, myself and I decided that it would be mainly about craft but that I would be allowed to cover major life events of my little family. Well, this is it: My baby big girl can cycle on her own!!! Champagne. For some bizarre reason...

Beach bags

Beach bags
My panel of advisers (ok, my friends) has been complaining that I did not do beach bags (the enormous kind that can contain enough to survive on a desert island for a year). There even a little pocket for the bag so it stays warm in the winter months....

Market

Market
There a bit of my stall in the market. Crap photos due to crap weather (yes, it is raining like mad here as well!). I lost some stock due to the rain, people did not feel like browsing because of the awful weather (unlike last year when it was 30c and...

Books

Aaaarrrgghh
Did you notice my new banner. The previous one had been lovingly done by my 7 year old who knows more about computing than me. Well, could I do it on my own? NO. And. this. really. annoys. me. All over the blogosphere I see amasing banners and photo montage...
