Green - so much green and felted slippers

It is green where we are biking

I am looking up from the ground to the top

In front of the house - Azalea - in blossom for only a short time

- - - - - - - - - -

Knitted slippers - to compare the size I placed socks

German size 42 near the monster slippers





Out of the washing machine



and then shaped - next step - cutting out the soles

During the Corona lock-down ebay ordering is the solution

I will cut the soles and make holes around the rim

and sew them on by hand

Biking in spring

Biking in our neighborhood - we made 22 km


but also up and down-hill



A small castle - Obergrombach - 




At home it looks like that now

 view out of the living room into our garden with the cherrie tree

and our neighbor‘s house

March already

I had a blog from very long ago, 20 years or so

and embellished it some time ago.

Now I needed a little memory quilt and found it in my stashes

The memory is for 50 year wedding anniversary of Brigitte and Hartmut - 

dear friends

and both have their 75th birthday festivities.

So counting everything together this makes 200.   

We were invited with many friends 

The piece of lace was given to me from Brigitte to work with it

So now, some of it went back to her.

It looked like that on the day




Stitching for TAST 2019 goes on

Below is the inverted feather stitch - week 10 - 

Sharon Boggon from Pintangle provides about 5000 members

each week with a new stitch.

I took part already in 2010, 2012 and 2104

Wating for spring - looking for little signs

Comparing Boston and Stutensee (Germany)


Sitting in front of of TV with nothing to do? -

Absolute no-go! Finger gloves.

Key board and iPad always very near.

In the Swiss Alps ...

..... it looked like this on Mai 10, 2015

and like this (it is a farm-house)

 

and this

and Grandson taller than Ma and Grandma ----

Outlook ---- and after the walk:

Looking backwards up-hill and

walking down-hill (image below).

We took easy roads - not having boots with us.

Men waiting for lunch.

Time out for needlework, knitting, crocheting, now it is clear WHY.

 

Walk and more spring

I love the reflection - I am standing on the bridge which is leading out of the village

 

Photo above: it is the bridge railing in front

hanging trees

and a little more spring

verly little more - we (of course DH) were cutting back the hazel nut

it robbed us the light in the living room -

it will grow again into a lovely low bush soon ---

and has again to be cut.....

 

new cuts for the lego quilt - more greens

 

Pears and cherries

We were welcome by our trees -
they had put on their most wonderful cloths
when we returned home on Friday last, on April 26.
