Bleu mer...

Je voulais faire une rétrospective des créations réalisées en 2012...mais il y a en a encore à vous montrer alors on va commencer par ça =D
Il semble en plus que je sois arrivée à 40 alors le collage va me rendre du temps....

Pour noël j'ai brodé mon premier Lili Point, Bleu mer
Note à moi même, les grilles Lili Point sont plus longues à broder que je ne le pensais ! Pour la prochaine, il va falloir prévoir...
J'ai failli être en retard avec celle ci puisqu'elle n'a été terminée que le dimanche avant Noël ! =)

Bleu mer donc....


La grille me semblait parfaite pour le petit 'pied à terre' de mes parents au bord de la mer, et j'en ai donc fait une housse de coussin que j'ai offerte à Maman pour Noël =)
Je n'ai malheureusement pas photo comme pour les tabliers l'an passé , mais je sais qu'il a fait trés plaisir et il a même suscité des 'commandes'  =D
Qui aurait pu me donner des qualités de couturières, hein Maman ? =D
J'en profite pour remercier Nia, car sans elle je ne ferais encore que des coussins tout simples, et non pas des housses avec tissus, rubans et tout ce qui va bien avec =D


Il ne me reste que des croix provenant du livre Japon au point de croix pour 2012
Elles n'ont été offertes que fin de semaine dernière pour le Noël / Anniversaire d'une amie ici, et elle ont eu leur effet elles aussi =D
Mais ce sera pour la prochaine fois
En attendant, Clair de Lune a progressé, je crois que je suis en train d'utiliser tous les marrons qui existent chez DMC avec cette broderie...
Photos du WIP au prochain post....
Ma première réalisation de 2013 a atteint sa destination , en France, pour l'échange de vœux du groupe Facebook...tout cela me donne de quoi nourrir les pages ici =D
A très vite donc

I wanted to start with a feedback of my stitchings in 2012...but as I still have things from last year to show you, I'll start with them =)
Can you believe I made 40 pieces last year !!
Lot's of pictures to show you then, the collage will take me time...
I can't even myself believe I made so many things, and so different !
Anyway
Here is my first design from Lili Point, called Bleu Mer
Note to myself, Lili Point designs are longer to stitch that I thought...for the next, I need to begin earlier if there's a deadline, because this one was only finished on the Sunday before Xmas !
I made it for Mum 
My parents have a little 'pied à terre' by the sea as you may know, and I found this design perfect =)
Unfortunately I don't have pictures of Mum opening her gift, but I can tell you she was very happy
She is impatient to show it to her friends there and to have it in her sofa =)



My pillow case had a great success and some of my cousins and aunts 'ordered' me one =)
By the way, I really want to thank Nia, because without her I would still be doing very simple cushions, no pillow cases with fabric, ribbons and everything that suits well =)
Thank you sweetie for having inspired me and encouraged me in doing my first one, beginning of last year =)

I still have one post to do with stitchings of last year, they all come from my book Japon au point de croix , and have been offered last Friday to a friend , for Xmas and her birthday (which is today =D)
WIP of Clair de Lune also next time ! I think that I'm now using all kind of brown that are existing in DMC threads =)
And many confetti stitches , like for the Sarah Kay I made !
But it's really a pleasure....
My first creation of 2013 also reached its recipient ... 
All this gives me food for pages here =D
So see you next time, I hope
xxxx

    1. thanks a lot Carol =)
      she is very 'amazed' in fact because she always says I didn't inherit this from her as she never sewed or stitch or create anything =)
      except a quilt she crocheted while expecting me (I definitely have to show this)
      we both were very happy =)
      big hugs
