La dernière fois j'avais parlé du diagramme voyageur , le tirage au sort a été fait hier soir mais avant de savoir où il va repartir...voici la broderie terminée :
Summer Garden donc, de Little House Needleworks dans des couleurs que nous avons choisies 'estivales' =)
Il y a normalement une bordure brodée, mais la chose dans laquelle cette pièce a fini étant trop petite, je n'ai pas pu la faire...pas bien grave :)
Quelle est donc cette chose ?
Il nous manquait au garage un porte clefs pour les clefs de la boite aux lettres, l'abri de jardin, l'abri à gaz....
Un peu de peinture, le talent de Super Moitié , une petite souris cherchant après son morceau de fromage perdu.... (que de mise en scène pour un simple porte clefs =D )
Et voilà :
Exactement ce qu'on voulait et un diagramme voyageur bien logé =)
Plus question maintenant de chercher après les clefs....
J'ai l'impression de déjà en retard, à montrer des pièces finies l'année dernière et d'autres déjà faites en ce début d'année...mais on a tout le temps !
Une bonne résolution pour cette année ?
Peut être essayer de faire des mises à jour plus fréquentes ici... =D
A très vite

PS: des cartes de vœux sont arrivées encore..avec un peu de retard mais elles ont fait très plaisir tout de même.
Merci à Simone et Amber (jetez un œil à l’affranchissement de saison au Canada =D)

As I didn't come here since 2014 has started (too well known seasonal intestinal virus that tired me soooo much...) I want to wish you all a very Happy New Year.
May 2014 bring you whatever makes you smile and happy, health (not a good start for me !) and lot's of stitches & craft =D
As you can see just above, 2 cards arrived to wish me a Merry Christmas and even if they arrived a bit after Christmas I was really happy to open them.
Thank you Simone and Amber for your beautiful cards and words (have a look at the seasonal Canadian stamping, excellent)
So as you saw it, I finished the travelling pattern.
We chose summer colours.
As we needed a key holder in the garage for the 'outside' keys (letter box, garden shed, bottled gas shed...) when we saw this one we immediately bought it ! And the travelling pattern was finally perfect to enter it !
Super Half painted it, added this cute mouse searching her lost piece of cheese....
What a staging for a simple key holder =D
The space for the stitched piece was a little bit smaller than the finished size so I couldn't stitch the border but I think it's a not a real problem =)
I love it, and now, it's impossible to wonder 'where are the keys' ? =)
So you were 4 here wishing to be the next stitcher....
1 - Carolyn
2 - Mmanka
3 - Noni
4 - Dani
And next stitcher is....
Congrats Dani =)
Can you please e-mail me your address so that I can prepare the Travelling Pattern luggages ?
So let's hope I'll be back soon

Hi Valma! I hope you're fully over the seasonal bug, I had it a few years ago and I didn't know which end to stick over the toilet, so I can totally sympathize! Great stitching and great paintwork, you and hubby are such a good team! The end result is really nice, and the cute key rings give it a perfect final touch.
RépondreSupprimerYou could probably sell it for a nice profit! Just a thought..... ; )
Kind regards, Brian.
Hi Brian
SupprimerI indeed had a kind of love story with my toilets :-/
Now I'm feeling better =)
Let's hope it will be the one and only seasonal bug !
Many thanks for your kind comment. I'm really thinking at opening an E-shop ...who knows...maybe I'll succeed in selling some pieces....
I'm so dreaming of a 'real' shop !
