Crocheted blankets, flowers, paintings, Pitcher, Ripple

A happy update!

Hello !

How are you today? How was your weekend?

I want to begin this post by thanking you for all your sweet messages concerning the Christmas socks 🙂 woooow you are so sweet and I am really really happy that you liked the little socks and that some of you are crocheting some or did even crochet already some 🙂 This makes my soul sing with joy ! Thank you from the bottom of my heart 🙂

And I want to say welcome to all the new followers 🙂 Welcome to Le monde de Sucrette… My blog is yours 🙂 (Here in Lebanon when we want to say welcome to somebody we say in Arabic: My home is yours)

Today, even though it is very dark I managed to take some pics to show you some progress I’ve made to my ripple and show you my latest painting too…

With what shall I begin?

Let’s begin with my painting : It is called : Flowers in a pitcher

Yes, yes more flowers (I think it is the only subject I can paint 🙂 )

It is smaller than Flower power and the flowers are a little different … but the spirit is the same (haha)

Here you can see both paintings…yes I painted in light blue the background of flower power and it transformed it totally I can say 🙂 I’ve made flowers in a pitcher’s background in light pink… My husband suggested a black background but I did not dare …

My paintings are not something really wow but I love them…too much 😀 and the therapeutic and calming effect painting gives me is unbelievable … you should try it 😉

Hope I am not bothering you with these…I’ve already began a third one (a much smaller one ) and I can’t wait to show it to you 😉

and now back to crochet 🙂

Here too, mixing colors is sooo therapeutic 🙂 Don’t you want to jump into that pic?

Don’t you feel the softness of Ripple of happiness just by looking at this pic?

Mmmm this blanket is giving me such pleasure to crochet that I don’t want to finish it at all (It is the first time I am not in a hurry to finish a crochet project )

It is so warm and cosy that it is a huge pleasure to snuggle under while crocheting stitch after stitch in the cold November evenings…

I’ll leave you with this last pic (my favorite pics are close up ones) and wish you a beautiful day filled with sunshine in your heart (the weather is not helping that much in my part of the world… don’t know in yours 🙂 )

Kisses,

Sucrette

Flower power

Hello my sweeties,

How are you today? Here the sky is gray and it is raining 🙁

Although the day is very dark I managed to take for you some pics of my finished painting … I could not wait to share with you 😉

Here it is: Flower power in all its glory…

Tadaaaaaaaaaaaa

I don’t know yet if I should leave the background white or should I paint it in a very light color (like light blue or light salmon)…what do you think?

Thank you all for your wonderful comments on my previous post …it is thanks to you that I had the “courage” to post about my painting…as I am not very confident about it (I’ve never been in my whole life 🙂 )

I’m finishing right now (slowly I can say) “stripes of love“…I still have 8 more rows to go and the edging… Hope I can show it to you done next week 😉

I’m off now to begin a new painting (don’t know from where came this strange passion for painting these days)

Sending you some colors to brighten up your day… (if it is as gray as mine !)

Have a wonderful week end 🙂

Crocheted animals and toys, flowers, In my craft room, paintings, Soft toys

Meet Mike :) and a peek at my wip painting!

Mike is my friend! He is always with me…when I crochet, when I paint, when I sew and when I surf the net…

He lives in my craft room and he is very faithful 🙂

He was the first thing I crocheted 7 years ago without following any pattern … I kind of invented him 🙂 and I did not write its pattern anywhere, I did not have at that time a blog and you, my virtual friends, to share with …

He is not very beautiful, I don’t know exactly what he is…a monster? a strange creature? an animal? but I love him very much and I kind of talk to him during my craft time … He knows all my secrets…

He is saying : Hello! to you… He loves you already 🙂

After meeting Mike today, I want you to take a look at my wip painting…

It is not something WOW! but it have a soothing and calming effect on me…

Mixing colors and spreading them on a white canvas gives me a certain peace of mind I can not describe 🙂

It relaxes me as much as crochet and takes out all the stress of a gray day 🙂

This will become (I hope so :D): flowers in a vase and it is called: flower power !! hehe (I’ll show it to you when it’s done!)

Hope you like!

BIG BIG BIG kisses 🙂

Crocheted doily, flowers, Lovely things, Pitcher

A new pitcher and an old doily…

Hello my friend!

Hope you’re spending a joyful week end…

Today, I want to show you my new pitcher… Isn’t it lovely? I adore it 🙂 It is hand painted and so colorful and fresh…I could not resist … 🙂

and do you see this colorful doily? Isn’t it beautiful? I crocheted it 7 years ago when I was newly wed 🙂 I was sooo patient before having kids 🙂 hehe

I used to crochet with very thin thread and a very tiny crochet hook… but that was long time ago…before discovering the joy of crocheting with thick colorful yarn 🙂

I think I can not make anymore this kind of project : sooo many small squares crocheted with a tiny tiny kind of thread… can you?

Can you mix between to different kind of crochet wips? one with chunky yarn and another with very very thin kind of thread? and enjoy them both?

I, myself, could not…I can easily mix between many wips but with the same kind of yarn…and I think that crocheting with very thin thread is somehow boring and too long … Can not make you wait too long between two tadaaaaaaaa 😉 hehe

So, if you’re working on colorful tiny crochet project or you already did something similar in the past I would really really appreciate to see your pics…

Have to go now…

Thank you so much for visiting today and a BIG thank you for being here and leaving such sweet messages …

Have a wonderful week end!
