Patchwork

For all of you who are wondering if I still do patchwork ... yes I do.

In the past weeks and months I finished lots of small projects which I never posted here.
Since my mac is full of these pics it's time share my work with you.

For a friend of my dad I made 3 little placemats earlier this year.
She already got one last year for christmas but asked for a few more .


She told me that she really like every placemat.
I will visited her in december again and need to think about a little gift.

Maybe some cute pottholder ?

A friend of my little sis asked for pillow case for her little sun (who turned one in october).

She wanted some nautical themed fabrics so I came up with this pillow case.


I used the cute fish fabrics which I bought in Tokyo earlier this year.
For the back I used fabric from a vintage pillow case.


I added a little L since the name of the little boy starts with a L.

I'm not sure if I told you about it but I started a new job in august.
One of my co-workers in a fun and creative lady.
When turned a year older I had to give her something special.

I made this pillow case for me but since I already have so many I thought that this would make a perfect gift.


She makes amazing crafts using old books and newspaper so it's just right for her.


A pillow cover might be a bit borring so I added 3 little matching coaster.

At the moment I'm working on a bag for my MIL (christmas present) and some clothes (pants, sweaters) for myself .

I will post more about it the next days.

Autumn sewing

It's getting colder here and I have more time for sewing projects.

In summer I had always the urge to go outside as soon as the sun was out.
With the dark and grey days around the corner I feel comfortable and happy to stay at home.


A while back I talked about owls with co-worker. She told me that she bought a pair in a shop here in Göttingen. But sadly they were sold out but she wanted more to give them ways as gifts.
Since I always loved making those owls I made her a little brown/ yellow one (using my fave tutorial from moonstitches) as a little surprise.

A few days later she brought me two magnets and asked me to make two more.
While I cut out her owls I came up with the idea to make a few more.
 
I ended up with 7 little owls.
Two of them went to my co-worker, one to my friend Mira and the brown red one is now living with my physiotherapist. 
The last 3 are still on my fridge waiting untill I give them away to friends and family.

I already prepared a few more :)

I'm still alive



Sorry for beeing such a bad blogger in the past months.
Summer kept me so busy.
I was traveling, enjoyed the summer and started a new job.

How was your summer. I hope as great and perfect as mine ?!

I was still crafty but way to busy to blog a about it.
I hope you are all still there and reading my little blog ?!

I promise to be back with lots of crafty projects and fun stories.

While I'm sorting everything I want to leave you behind (untill I'm back with one of my fave songs for autumn).
