One of My Blankets Came to Visit

I was particularly fond of this blanket

The colors came out very fresh and not too baby-ish

I'm glad it found a good home

For Tzvi

Ask and you shall receive

The prince himself!

The Kindergarten Catwalk

My niece Dana (3) would not wear this pink t-shirt, 

rightly judging that it was lacking a certain something

She I asked me to embroider on it and I went the minimal way with just a little embellishment

Happy Birthday Noa and Ithamar

And many more!

I Heart Japan!

I love everything about Japanese craft - 

the materials, the designs, the mix of funky and refined, 

everything! 

These bags were inspired by something I saw in a Japanese magazine, 

they are made of tea-dyed white linen

The Khaki Challenge

My niece decided to cut off the sleeves of her khaki shirt 

so I thought I'd challenge myself to see what I could do with the fabric

I'm halfway through and this is what I have so far. 
Who knew a couple of sleeves held this much material?

Venga Messi!

Two of my woolen hats have been to Barcelona

On a cold night they went to the Barca football stadium to see a Champion's League match (venga Messi!) and have been converted - they finally see the beauty of the game. 

Leaving on a Jet Plane

My sisters and me went to Barcelona 

to celebrate the Bat Mitzva of my niece Roni

There was a lot of fun, a LOT of shopping and the weather was beautiful. 
Since this is a craft blog, I wanted to show you of all things the trip back home. 

Roni and me boarded the plane well prepared and spent the whole journey making missed-you cards for the rest of the family and also something new - Roni bought pierced earrings for her friends and we made little mats to pin them on for a special presentation. 

We must have appeared industrious because a lady passenger came over and gave us a craft magazine in German

Flower Power

The final installment in the series of drawings 

that have come to life as felt characters. 

It's been fun but it's time to move on to something new

Purple Rain

A purple character

that came out of Michal's head

Here Little Doggie

This little doggie was made from a painting by Roni
