More Baby Beds

One day before I travel... 

I finished my Moses baskets.

This is the bed I made two days ago

and the lady couldn't make up her mind,

beige or pink bows and flowers...

It ended up with beige.

Now a complete different basket,

baby blue...

For this baby basket I used cotton 

for the lining and four layers of lace on the 

outside.

These oval shaped panels 

can pull the canopy up from the sides

to play with the design.

I hope you have a wonderful week.

Silk Covered Moses Basket

Today I finished this beige silk Moses basket.

I have to make one more before I travel...

I'll leave on the 18th to England to see my 

youngest daughter who is studying in Colchester 

and stay with her for four days.

Then hop over to Holland to visit my parents 

for two weeks.

I requested lots of rain and cold weather...

These beautiful roses I got from my better half,

we celebrated our 36th year wedding anniversary,

I've got the sweetest husband ever!

On this baby bed I used a very light lace canopy. 

I love the flower detail.

I only used beige and cream colours 

for the basket and canopy.

Here is a closer look of the curtain.

This is still one of my favorite cushions,

I'll keep it a bit longer, just to look at it...

I hope you are having a wonderful week.

Covered Tissue Boxes

Today I'm in the tissue cover making mood!

The shop where I bring my items to 

were asking for them.

On this cover I used the lace with the 

cut out flowers.

This flower trim is handmade from Turkey 

and looks so sweet stitched on this 

small tissue box cover.

I hope you have a wonderful week.

Lavender Sachets

I still have a lot of lavender from my

last vacation in France.

Today I used some to make these cute sachets.

First I made a few tissue-box covers

and had some velvet material scraps over,

just enough to make one sachet...

It turned out so cute,

now I had to make some more.

Random buttons.

They look nice for the picture..

So does she...

I love working with lavender,

now my craft-room smells so nice.

It brings me back to the south of France,

walking through the lavender fields..

Today I am joining in with

Feathered Nest Friday

Show and Tell Friday

and Vintage Inspiration

Pink Coverlet

Today I finished this coverlet.

I think it will be easier to use than a quilt cover.

It can be used over a blanket or quilt and could be removed 

before going to bed so it doesn't need to be washed

as often as a quilt cover. 

I made a bed-skirt to match.

These pillows were a headache to make,

I found it hard to get all the gathering 

to match up equally. 

It took me a whole day of fidgeting and I don't 

think I will make them again any day soon... 

I found this nice lace material that I can 

cut out around the flowers to make any shape I want. 

I am not too sure about the bows 

but they are easily removed...

The bed-cover was fun to make even 

with all the gathering...

I hope you have a creative week.
