YAY!!!! The week end is here!!!!

Wow...

finally, after a long and not very happy week...the week end is starting!!

I have to say that Friday night is my favourite night of the week...the week end is just around the corner and all seems to be possible Friday night...

It's like Christmas Eve for me...

Well...this week end will be so special, a friend of mine will come here tomorrow morning and she'll stay here since Sunday evening...

So...we will have 2 days for sewing, chatting, eating chocolate...

drinking hot tea and coffee and...again sewing...chatting...LOL!!!

We planned to sew a project and some of our Xmas presents together and this will be surely so much fun!!!

I chose to make this Santa's garland for my house for Xmas:

I think it's so cute and it will look wonderful hanged on my fireplace...what do tou think?

I'll post some pics of our week end and of our projects in the next days...

I wish a great week end to you all too!!!

Went to the Dentist

Hi my friends!

Yesterday evening I went to the Dentist...

He removed my Wisdom Tooth after a local anaesthesia, he worked so fast, in about 20 seconds my tooth was pulled off to my mouth...without any pain...

But...this morning...the pain is coming and my cheek puffed out...

Hopefully...I feel better soon as today...it will be a very long day at work... :O(

A Rainy Day

Hi to all!
Today it's a rainy day and this make me so...bleahhhhhh...
I have to say that sometimes I love rainy days, you can do things inside like sewing, reading, crafting but...today...I don't...
I hope that tomorrow...will be better...for now...I can't wait it will be late night and I can go to bed and...close this Monday...
How do you feel today?

My "Patchwork" week end in Saint Marie Aux Mines

Hi!I've had a wonderful long week end (4 days so...more than a short vacation than a week end!!!) in Saint Marie Aux Mines (Alsace) for the 16th Carrefour European du Patchwork!

I've still in my mind and in my eyes the amazing quilts I saw there...This was the 3rd time

that I go there and every time it's a wonderful experience...

The expositions were everywhere there: schools, churches, theatres and every shop - doesn't matter if it's a bakery or a laundry or a butcher shop - had at least one quilt displayed...

Groups of happy women were all around, laughing and chatting, some of them were dressed with patchwork jackets or clothes made by themselves and lots of them proudly showed wonderful patchwork bags made by themselves too!!!

The "Espace Commercial" was a dream for every quilter, sewer and crafter...a gazillion of stands full of the most beautiful fabrics you can ever dream...buttons, colorful threads, books, sewing and embroidery tools and anything is new, wonderful, strange, useful or not in the sewing world...

I went there with some french friends, we were a group of 11, 5 men and 6 women.
Men visited the Cars Museum and then some...caves (!!!) while we visited the expositions.
So...anyone had a great time there...
Between an exposition and one other...we eated some wonderful Alsacian Tarte Flambèe...they taste soooo good!!!! I just love them!!!

Be there was really a joy for me, so I would like to thank my hubby for...taking me there...it's so far from our town, more than 700 km...

And a big thank you also to my Dear friends Nathalie, Jacqueline and hers so lovely parents, Maryline, Annie, Jean Marc, Jaque and Luke for make this week end so special for me!!!!

I've got a TREASURE in the mail today...

This morning the postman rang to my bell "There is a small box for you"...
I was so excited especially when I read the label and...it comes from Australia...
What a long trip it had...
I opened the box and...OMG!!!!
A little TREASURE was there!!!


I partecipated in a "Pincushion Swap" and this is what I got back!!!
