Il est arrivé...!

Non, le Brésil n'a pas disparu de la surface de la terre... sa Poste fonctionne toujours....et mon cadeau pour Isabella est enfin arrivé !!!
On détient un record !
Mon petit tapis de bougies est parti mi novembre !!!!
Mais aller, le principal est qu'il soit bien arrivé...

J'avais choisi ce modèle de Lizzie Kate , j'ai juste changé les fils pour la première lettre de chaque mot en utilisant les fils métalliques offerts, avant les fêtes, dans le magazine The World of Cross Stitching...


Je crois, avec certitude, que je suis la première à avoir envoyé un cadeau pour Noël 2013
hahahaha =D
J'avais monté la broderie sur du tissu de Noël pour en faire un 'candle mat',  en fait  je ne trouve pas d'autre traduction qu'un petit tapis à bougies...


Et si avant de commencer les croix de 2013 on faisait un petit récapitulatif de tout ce qui a été fait l'an dernier ? =D
J'ai pris un peu de temps pour faire mes collages...
Il y a de tout ! Une année très créative qui avait bien démarré avec la Petite Nia biensur =D
Beaucoup de Margaret Sherry,  des portes clefs, des marques pages, de plus grosses pièces avec la couverture , l'abécédaire et les coussins...des cartes, des biscornus....et Noël... !
Belle rétrospective =D
Espérons que début 2014 il y ait une belle petite collection aussi....

I really thought it has...but no... Brazilian Post Office hasn't disappeared from the Earth surface =D
My parcel to Isabella finally arrived yesterday !
We really have here a world record, as it left mid November =)
Most important thing...it well arrived
I chose for Isabella this design from Lizzie Kate with which I made a candle mat 
I trained myself with my winter cat before doing this one for her =D
Got lot's of inspiration from Kate for this piece at the time when she posted about her own fabric candle mats =)
I changed the first letter of each word, using for the occasion the metallic threads that were offered with TWOCS before the holidays =)


I  think that I'm the very first to have sent a gift for 2013 Xmas already , hahahahaha =D

Anyway, you surely saw that I found time to make my collages for my 2012 feedback !
Wow ! Lot's of different things...
A very creative year which started very well with the Little Nia of course =D
And then, lot's of Margaret Sherry, key chains, bookmarks, my very first zipped pouch, and bigger pieces such as the blanket for Anna, ABC Winnie for Noémie, pillow cases...cards, biscornus....and Xmas gifts =D
I hope 2013 will also be creative !
See you very soon =)

      Little Nia...hehehehehe....started again to laugh alone ! =D
      The chickadees had a great success, it was for my MIL , for the Mother's day

      I hope to be very productive this year too, but as I'm also searching a job that I hope to find this year...maybe I'll have less free time, but that would be good news in fact... :)
      Hope to meet here often anyway =)

    Valerie, everything you've done is just beautiful! Of course, I'm partial to the red tree Penguin ornament! And I have to tell you I have also done the Winnie the Pooh Alphabet Sampler and sent it to Sfpsfc for a quilt. I too, love Somebunny patterns! There are so many gorgeous cute patterns out there to buy, and not enough time to stitch them all!! :) Happy Stitching!! :)

    Look how much you made last year!!! :D woooooowwwwwww!!! So many beautiful and creative works! Amazing! :D Of course I was the lucky one to get the most gorgeous and special piece from all those pictures =) No one will ever make anything more special than my personalized needlebook =) I'm pretty sure, it's the most wonderful and unique gift!!!! :D You will see it in my craft room when you come to visit heheheh :D
    You may be right, probably the first Christmas gift to arrive in 2013!! hahahaa :D But our friends from Brazil, they understand, happens the same when they send to us! It's really the place in the whole world where the snail mail is the slowest snail :p hahahahhaha :D Lovely finish and such a beautiful fabric =) Once again, well done sweetie =)) When I grow up I want to make beautiful finishes like you =)))))
