Getting busy…

Good morning friends around the globe!

Hope you’re doing great today…

I’ve been playing with my favorite stash of yarn and could not resist beginning a new project…

My favorite part in any hooky project is when I choose the colors and take them from their box to my favorite basket…and then dream a little bit on what I’ll be making… and how the project will turn out once finished … 🙂

Crochet day dreaming is the best 🙂

This yarn is my favorite… Even though it is a little thin (crochet with a 3mm hook) it has the most wonderful colors…

It is called Mirage…a 100% acrylic yarn…

and I’ve decided to make a bedspread for the baby’s room…Yes, I know that my own bedspread is not finished yet and I’m still making Love bird squares but I will be working on both of them together 🙂

And for this project I’ve been inspired by the lovely work of Derya…she’s been working on her own patchwork blanket and posting great pics about it day after day…and I was like : woooow I want to make one 🙂

Derya has a beautiful blog where she post everyday lovely pics of her crochet projects…Even though it is in turkish and I don’t understand a word I am always happy to visit her and get inspired by her talented projects and her wonderful choice of colors …

So… I began mine…

and I’m making 4 squares/ day … Oh you cannot imagine how much pleasure this simple project is giving me 🙂 Crocheting traditional granny squares of 6 rounds each and joining them together as-I-go … colorful plain granny squares 🙂 I love youuuuuuuuuuu soooo muchhh 🙂

and I feel that it will turn out wonderful as a single bedspread…what do you think?

Now I have two bedspreads on the making…One single and one double 🙂 yahooooooooooooo!

and I’ve began a new small painting also…in my new craft room 🙂

Rediscovering the pleasure of painting after a long period of time…is simply wonderful!

I’m off now to finish it!

Thank you so much for visiting…

Wishing you small pleasures to brighten up your day 🙂

Big kisses

Good morning !

How are you feeling today? Are you still in “Holidays-mode” or did you get back to your everyday’s “routine”? I’m trying to get back to the routine-mode but it is quite hard…the girls are still at home and there is still mess everywhere and new toys in every room and this is getting me crazy…

I saw, once, a very cute quote: “Please excuse the mess, the children are making memories” This quote makes me smile and everytime I get mad about the mess around here I try to remember the quote 🙂

So, this is how we are spending our days, girls playing with their new toys while mummy try to concentrate on hers …

…starting three new projects…

…One with her best friend her acrylic nako yarn…

… one with her cotton stash…

…and the last one with a brush and some colors…

It is always so exciting to start new projects…but to finish them is another story 😉

Will tell you more about each project later …Have to go now…There is some shouting coming from the playing room 🙂 the girls are surely making memories 🙂

Have a wonderful end of week!
