1.1.11

Hello my Dear Friends! This date 1.1.11 looks really good! Let’s hope it brings good luck for all this year!!!

I’m so so so happy and amazed how much I have got  lovely and sweet wishes and comments these last days!!! It has been so wonderful! Before the Christmas time I didn’t know what to expect from this festive time…perhaps every one is busy with their families, cookings etc. But there has been quite much ’traffic’ in blogland and I have enjoyed that because our Christmas time is quite peaceful at home.

Yesterday, the last day of the last year, I was thinking what photo would be nice for that post. I wanted something colourful because I know that all we love colours and they give us happyness, joy, energy and inspiration to create! I remembered that shawlet which came in the Christmas packet…

I’m sorry that I misslead you and you thought I have made it, but it’s made by my mother long long time ago! Yesterday I didn’t want to write anything else except thanking you!!! and I didn’t say anything for the shawlet…

Today I like to tell you something about this shawlet. My mother was very colourful and creative person! She made that kind of crochet crafts, shawlets, blankets, jackets etc. when I was a child. Till now this was in Finland and now my father sent it to me! It is sort of ‘anticue’ piece and now I should try to repair it a little bit. I think it may be about 30 years old. I’m happy to be able show it to you!

Yesterday evening when we were preparing ourselves for going out,  Nelli chose the most comfortable place to spend the mid night and  ’change her year’! My bed with the most soft blanket!

In the evening before leaving out, I had some time for my crafts. These days between Christmas and New Year, I have continued the quilt ‘Finnish Forest’. I begun to make also a cushion to match with the blanket…

 

January is a special month for me – I love January even it’s often the coldest month! It’s My month with my lucky number 14!!! And this year it’s even more special…in fact I don’t know why we say like that…it’s not special at all…I don’t dare to say that loud…

Still I like to think that perhaps this year is going to be special! Usually we don’t make promises for the new year, but now I was thinking that I shall try be more creative and use my imagination as well as possible…

… thank you for helping me to make that happen! Now I go to enjoy the rest of the evening in my armchair front of the telly with the forest blanket…it’s so nice to work with because it warms me already even it’s not finished!

Before I go I like to say that I’m soooo happy to hear that everyone has been so impressed with the Stylish Blogger Award! It will be so nice to read all your posts!

See you soon….
