Happy Valentine’s day!

Hello!

I like to post this special poem to my heart each Valentine’s day on this blog here 🙂 It is written by Gibran Khalil Gibran a Lebanese poet we are very proud of 🙂

You were born together, and together you shall be forevermore. You shall be together when the white wings of death scatter your days. And, you shall be together even in the silent memory of God. But let there be spaces in your togetherness, And let the winds of the heavens dance between you.

Love one another, but make not a bond of love: Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls. Fill each others cup but drink not from one cup. Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone, Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.

Give your hearts, but not into each others keeping. For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts. And stand together yet not too near together: For the pillars of the temple stand apart, And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each others shadow.

Gibran Khalil Gibran

Happy Valentine’s day to you my special friends,

P.S: You can find the heart cushion’s pattern over here 🙂

“I heart you” cushion

Hello!

The pattern is ready! It is an english written pattern with step-by-step pictures and it includes too small charts of the flower and the leaves that I sew on it 🙂

It is an amigurumi kind of pattern and you’ll need some chunky yarn (approximately 100 to 150g) , a hook, stuffing and a stitch maker.

Once you purchase the pattern, I’ll send it to you within 24 hours. Please be patient, sometimes it is night time in my country while it is the morning in yours. I’ll try my best to check on my mails 2 to 3 times per day 🙂

You can buy it from HERE.

Hope you’ll enjoy it!

Happy crocheting 🙂

flowers, heart, In my craft room, sewing

me-time

Hello everybody !

Joe is going to daycare for a couple of hours per day, the girls are at school and I am back to life 🙂

That’s how I’m feeling…sorry if this sounds rude to some of you but I really really really missed being alone just me with myself for an hour or two… and spending some me-time without thinking: should I be able to finish this round of crochet before he wakes up from his nap?

I think that when you’re away from your children for a couple of hours that makes you a better mom when you’re with them again…and that makes you appreciate every moment spent with them even more…don’t you think?

So,lovelies, I am back to life, back to my craft room (that is on the first floor of my house), back to my sewing machine, back to my paintings too…Oh how I missed spending some time down there…

In the first months after Joe was born I felted an urgent need to go down…just for an hour…but that was impossible…now it is…

Just sitting behind the sewing machine was a real pleasure…

I’ve made nothing important…I’ve sewed some hearts for my sister’s home (she asked me if I could make some for her home back in december 🙂 )

Opening the closet and smelling the colorful fabric was blissful too 🙂

How about looking from the window and appreciating the beauty of our springy blue sky…

and admiring the lovely little flowers that the girls planted at school and brought back home with them…

Oh how I miss these 3 little people of mine when they are away…

Life is a treasure my friend… enjoy every second…

and have a beautiful day!

Kisses, hugs and LOVE to all!

LOVE

You were born together, and together you shall be forevermore.
You shall be together when the white wings of death scatter your days.
And, you shall be together even in the silent memory of God.
But let there be spaces in your togetherness,
And let the winds of the heavens dance between you.

Love one another, but make not a bond of love:
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
Fill each others cup but drink not from one cup.
Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf
Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone,
Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.

Give your hearts, but not into each others keeping.
For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts.
And stand together yet not too near together:
For the pillars of the temple stand apart,
And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each others shadow.

Love @ first sight: some progress

Good morning !

After finishing the baby blanket I decided I have to make some progress on “Love @ first sight” and maybe maybe try to finish it…

This project holds a special place in my heart and I’m still so in love that when I’m crocheting it I feel like my heart beats with joy… I want to make it HUGE…Yes a very very big blanket … Hope I can stay so in Love to realize this wish 😉

So, my lovelies, some pics to show what I did so far…
