Whats new?

I finished these fruits. Now I am waiting to find the time and quilt them with white fabric, as a wall hang for my future kitchen



I changed the colors for my "counting my blessings" project




And this is a little something I won on rice babies blog: http://ricebabies-ca.blogspot.com/
beautiful blog beautiful creations!
And by the way I didnt win any thing on the sew mama sew giveaway, if any one wonderd- which is totaly fine.





And look what I found next to a garbage in the kibbutz: {not the dog, this dog is a friend of my daughter. she plays with her all day, they even talk :-) }
These beautiful chairs! What sould i do with them? pain them? or cross stitch something?




Eli got his first hair cut by me! {not that I know how to cut hair}
So sweet, now he looks like a big boy! And you can see my mom in the back




Thats me and Eli.
I cant wait to loos all this weight, I look like I'm 6 monthes pregnent for god's sake









That smile... = $1,000,000



Pictures

This was another holiday vacation day. My 3 kids were home with me, and made a big mess in such a short time. So at 11:30am I started washing the dishes and all kids were watching TV {a moment of silence}. After 10 minuts I look't at them and i saw a miracle!

Eli and Tom fell a sleep! I had to take a picture! I was so happy!!!














Baby Tom- So fat So sweet!




Saturday at the pool in the kibbutz.


I love going to the pool. I even swam 30 laps 3 times last week!


I wish I had the time to do it every day....

What's new- part 2

I think i might have been a little more active in this past few weeks. I finaly understud that i am not going to sew with a sewing machine in the close future... I may once or twice but thats a problem to do since its stored with all my fabric... until we move to a new home.

Any way, i found this 12 step program.
I look at it as a tipe of "rehab" for sewests that fell of track, like me! So if you want to join and you might feel the same, this is a good way to start again! http://chickpeastudio.typepad.com/chickpea_sewing_studio/2010/05/sew-twelve.html




This i did not creat, i bought these fabrics cues thats a very important thing to do no matter what!




Now, if i cant sew I rather stick to what is possible at the moment and do it alot! {hopefully..}
Needle stitching and Needle felting are 2 things i love and can carry in boxes around the house...
So thats what i am doing for now.
Finally i finished this! Since 2009!! Ages ago!



And i have this sweet vitage ondori cross stitch book. And ofcorse i would want to make every thing in this book. so now its a good time to dig in



I am making the 3 fruts



2 are ready, one to go!






I also joind a stitch along group that the theme is 100 blessings in our lives.
Its calld: "counting my blessings".

This is the my fabric and thred that i chose for this project



And i also joind the ugly quilt contest- very funny thing!
