Once more - the postcard

The postcard - with its frame -

I risk to bore you

I wanted to make a border with pulled stitches. I made them for the first time and saw that

it is not at all difficult. My next piece will have more - I am planning.....

It is looking like that - transfer paper on my "studio work horse" and a few colour ways

The green one will be my choice.

And now the surprise -

 

 

Our friendly neighbour came to bring us strawberries,

huges ones, the farmer in our village can't sell them, they are too large,

neverthelelss they taste well - I froze them for jam at a later time.

Now isn't that wonderful!

 

 

Farmhouses and other dwellings

As some of you might already know we have been searching a holiday house, actually a farmhouse, to renovate for at least two years and saw meanwhile more than 100 buildings, ruins, villas, cottages, verandas, shabby shacks, holes, dwellings. Would you think that I can remember the 4th house which we saw 2 weeks back? Nothing. That's why I make my very unexpert sketches. They look like that:

And tomorrow we are again getting off the starting blocks.

We don't give in, DH needs an occupation
