A touch of Spring

At this end of Europe we're all in desperate need of a little warm sunshine.
After a long and tedious Winter, everyone's waiting for Spring - but what's taking soo long?

Somewhere in my bones/fingers , my longing for warmer and friendlier weather must be to blame for creating this little handbag with a whiff or hint of SPRINGTIME!
Creating this, didn't take me long - -and by forming the first two roses, I was A and Away!

Oooh for Orange

I've been busy with this small handbag "forever", the background velvet is neither blue nor gray, (click on and you'll see what I mean)
I simply couldn't decide what colours to use on such a strange colour, but to my surprise I used orange trimmings - really no favorite colour of mine.
Perhaps someone out there will like the colour combination enough to "take her home" once she's up for sale. Finally all done and dusted.

Aubergine or Eggplant ?

I enjoy working with crinkled velvet fabric, and creating the pink roses was great fun. Strangely enough, every rose looks different when done.

Rabbit clan

This is what I call my "homework" 'cause I don't make time to sew these little guys( or are they gals?) in the studio, but I enjoy sewing a bunny while watching telly during evenings. They're rather quick and easy to make, but the fun part of the job is to "dress" 'em up.

Before I have too many rabbits hopping all over the entire apartment, I'll have to find good homes for the gang.
