Falalalala....

Autant s'y prendre un peu à l'avance... préparons un peu noël  =D
Il y a quelques temps je recevais de la part de Nia , une de ses grilles Lizzie Kate des bonhommes de neige, Snow Friends.


J'avoue que c'était une de mes préférées, si ce n'est ma préférée des 6 qu'elle a fait...
Elle n'était pas sur ma liste des broderies pour cette année mais un si gentil cadeau ne se refuse pas =)
Alors hop hop , un peu de tissu de noël et j'en ai fait un petit coussin auquel j'ai ajouté un petit noeud et un grelot.


Histoire de partager le plaisir j'ai ensuite envoyé cette grille à Annette qui se propose elle aussi de l'envoyer maintenant...une espèce de diagramme voyageur =)
J'ai aussi récidivé, j'ai fait un nouveau Little House Needleworks...Cardinal Winter 
Pareil, un petit coussin pour la décoration de la maison à Noël...
Je vous avais bien dit que les prochaines finitions seraient plus simples, on ne peut pas toujours avoir le cerveau en ébullition, c'est vacances =)
A bientôt
xxxx


It is never too early to prepare Xmas...
... and that's what I did.  
Sweet Nia sent me some weeks (months) ago one of  the 6 snowmen she made , Snow Friends by Lizzie Kate.
For sure this one was my favourite !


It was not on my to do list this year but such a sweet present had to be honoured =D
I made it on cream aïda (yes it is cream but the picture is very bad !) and finished it as a little pillow with a bow and a bell ... 
I sent it to Annette after I stitched it and it is maybe about to become a travelling pattern as Annette also proposed to send it =)
Have a look on her blog...

And I re offended  =)
I did another LHN, called Cardinal Winter 


 I also finished it as a little pillow to decorate our home at Xmas.
I told you the next finishes would be more 'simple' hehehe, our team is a bit on vacations and our brains can't always be high boiling =)
And I don't have too many pillows for the moment.


We don't see very well but the fabric is green, perfect for Xmas =)
I have other charts for Xmas by LHN, I will try to stitch one per month till December...
I also have 3 houses of the Santa's Village...ho my, I'm going to be a busy bee till the end of the year 
(don't want to speak about bees....we quarrelled)
Coming soon with other stitches...
