Sleeping baby finished! =)

Yaaaay me! I finished it! A few minutes ago!

I'm so proud of myself! This was really fast!
Now off to "hunt" a really-good-with-a-sewing-machine lady!
See ya!

.WIP.

This is what´s keeping me busy lately. Well... this and finishing our apt.´s remodeling. =P
I'm stitching this design to be turned out as a pillow for Flávia, my niece. That girl is going to have a large list of cross stitched gifts from this auntie here! =D
So far it looks good to me. Sometimes it´s annoying because of all the colors changing, but it´s coming along so nice!
Off to my needles...

My niece is coming...

...and she will have a soft baby towel with a fancy hood when she arrives! =)



Flávia is supposed to born by the end of May, and auntie Janaina had stitched her this piece here. Soon I will be mailing it to my sis and hope to make her smile.
Would you?

Tagged!

Yes! My 1st entry in 2009 is to answer a tag call! =P
Joke has tagged me so I have to show the fourth picture in the fourth folder on my computer.

That´s Petit, my baby boy, fooling at the beach. Its almost imposible to get him quiet enough for a good shot! It was a funny pic tho... =D
Now it's my turn to tag four people. I ask you to show on your blog the fourth picture of the fourth folder on your computer I tag Linda , Iris, Nia and Viv.

Merry (sunny!) Xmas!

Wishing you all the best Xmas ever! See you all in 2009! =)

New members of this family

Those are my new kokeshis!

They just arrived at my home from the south part of the country. Fabi Sehnem is the crafter, better saying, artist, who made'em.

Fabi lives at Joinville, capital city of Santa Catarina, one of the 3 states that complete the south area of Brazil. I was so amazed by her work, I just needed to get those little dolls! Believe me they are WAY much prettier here than at the pic!

At the bottom part, there´s a tiny hole, so you can use it as a thread reel and place it over your sewing machine. I do not have a sewing machine, but do like the idea of storing my ribbons on them.

Note that each one of them were made in a very distinticve way. There´s even a tan one, that I personaly asked her to make "Brazilian looking". That´s my fave.

I've a feeling that this little family's soon going to be receiving some new members! =)
