Jeg gikk amok/I went bananas

It was a 30% sale at my local craft-shop. So I bought all these! I heard a rumor that Disney has not renewed their license for cross-stitching, so I bought two Mickey and Minnie kits. Almost finished with one of them too while watching "Glee". And btw, I love glee, its like a musical, and I can sew too it because it is not imperative to watch every second in case you miss anything, and it only last 40 min, which is about all I can take whilst only being occupied with two things. I am a multitasker see. I need to be doing atleast three-four things at the same time or my brain gets bored...

I hae never seen the bunnies before, but I bought both, they are from permin, who we love even though they are expensive. And I finally bought Benjamin bunny, who nothing compares to. My first love and bunny was named after him. He looks adorable. And I am guessing he is the next in line to be made.

On my Wedding sampler cat I have only the backstitching and names left, but OMG I have misplaced the alphabet that came with it. What to do. (especially since I have trouble getting logged on to the cross-stitching forums where I usually get help:( )

Regarding the rabbit. She is fixed and healthy and she is back to loving me now that I don't poke her everyday to check on her stitches. I got a thorough wash yesterday, and all I had to do was sit under the desk for ten minutes.

Dandelions from the witch-house

Boyfriend and I went to the store and on the way home I embarrassed him greatly by picking dandelions from the ditches.

Well home I washed the leafs and threw away old dirty leafs from last year.
Then put them on some newspaper to dry, but the ones that were still on roots
I hung up to dry
When dry, in a couple of days I will put the leafes in air-dry boxes and store for winter.
Indeed the things we do for our buns.

Hopefully this will keep her satisfied all winter. (As the good bunny-slave I am this will be done more than one time over the summer)

Spring and Fleamarked season


So this is my current project which is not a secret. All that is left is the backstitching, and since you all know me, I have to force myself to do it.... But it is getting there.




This is Mimle, asleep after a whole day of wreckage. ^^ 

Now, I have been to a fleamarket this weekend, and among the things that followed me home is this lovely breakfast set. Isn't it beautiful? I love it, I have had my friend come over just to drink tea. I may be a bit over the top in love with teapots, of all kinds.

And other than that I am reading a most interesting book. "Wise Women" it is called by Philippa Gregory. I love England. When I am finished with it I think I will make a review just for you.
