A nice afternoon

I spent a couple of hours yesterday afternoon working on my greeting cards.
I'm almost done with the fabric cards but I still want to make some paper ones. It's not too late, but I'd better hurry if I want to send them before Christmas.
While working on my fabric cards, I unearthed this little doll I made a few weeks ago.
It's just a small prototype and it was lying under a pile of Colorplay fabrics. Now it's smiling at me while I'm sitting at my desk.
And next is one of my candidate quilts for metamorphosis...
It's hanging on my design wall right now. And I'm just wondering... Shall I cut it up? Yes? No?...

A postcard giveaway

At last, here's the giveaway I had promised as a celebration of my blogging anniversary!
To have a chance to win one of these rosebud postcards, all you have to do is to leave a comment on this post. You have until Wednesday May 11th, 6pm (Belgian time) to do so. Two winners will then be picked randomly.
And, next week, if all goes well, there will be another giveaway on this blog, this time only for my European readers.
Voici enfin le petit cadeau que j'avais promis pour fêter le 5ème anniversaire de mon blog. Pour avoir une chance de gagner une de ces cartes "Rosebud", il vous suffit de me laisser un commentaire sur ce billet. Vous avez jusquau mercredi 11 mai, 18h (heure belge). Il y aura deux gagnants tirés au sort.
Et, la semaine prochaine, si tout va bien, j'aurai un autre cadeau à mettre en jeu, cette fois pour mes lecteurs européens uniquement.
In other news, I'm starting to think about the "Spice" colour scheme for my next Twelve by Twelve quilt. Here are the fabrics I have selected so far...
Je commence à penser à mon prochain quilt Twelve by Twelve. La palette de couleurs est "Epices". Voici les tissus que j'ai choisis pour l'instant...
I've got an idea. I did a little sketch. It doesn't have anything to do with spice. But why not? As long as I use the given colours, I'm ok, right?
J'ai une idée, j'ai fait un petit croquis . Cela n'a rien à voir avec les épices, mais tant que j'utilise la palette imposée, pas de problème!
And, here's a picture I took in Wales, because I keep seeing chartreuse everywhere. This is just for you Gerrie! ;-)
Et pour terminer, une photo prise au Pays de Galles, parce que je continue à être obsédée par la couleur "chartreuse". Spécialement pour toi, Gerrie! ;-)

I'm quilting

I started quilting "Chartreuse One" this morning...
Not sure there will be a "Chartreuse Two" after all...
Today, I also quickly put together a rosebud postcard as a surprise gift for a friend.
I don't think she reads my blog.
In any case, as it's a surprise, she can't guess it's for her. ;-)
