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 πŸ™‚ 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 πŸ™‚ This makes my soul sing with joy ! Thank you from the bottom of my heart πŸ™‚

And I want to say welcome to all the new followers πŸ™‚ Welcome to Le monde de Sucrette… My blog is yours πŸ™‚ (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 πŸ™‚ )

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 πŸ™‚ 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 πŸ˜€ and the therapeutic and calming effect painting gives me is unbelievable … you should try it πŸ˜‰

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 πŸ˜‰

and now back to crochet πŸ™‚

Here too, mixing colors is sooo therapeutic πŸ™‚ 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 πŸ™‚ )

Kisses,

Sucrette

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?Β  I adore it πŸ™‚ It is hand painted and so colorful and fresh…I could not resist … πŸ™‚

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

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 πŸ˜‰ 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!
