I’m done! Are you ready to see it?
“Oriental Butterfly” (Dimension)
As most of my stitched work, I won’t framed it or anything, but I’ll put it safely in a drawer. I know it’s sad, but you see, my pleasure is to stitch. Nevertheless, I love to show my work, the only thing is that it’s not on my walls…
Next project is a kimono (same style as the butterfly).

It’s really colourful and I love it!
I just need to add the chinese characters on each sides of the butterfly and the backstitch to finish the design.

I joined 2 Artist Trading Cards swaps on Swap-bot.
The theme of first one was “Owl” and here are the 2 ATCs I made.


I used Distress inks and pictures I found online.
The theme of the second swap was “Pigs can fly” and here are the ATCs I made.


Again, I used Distress inks and pictures found online.

This is my progress on the butterfly.
I like the contrast between the colours of the butterfly and the background.

Have a nice week everyone

Eat some good food

Wash yourself

Spend some time at your favourite spot

Take a nap

Plume and I would like to thank you all for your good wishes.
As you can see, her hair is growing again, I like how soft it is.

I finished this dress last weekend. I was supposed to sew it this summer but couldn’t find time to do it…
I haven’t worn it yet and thought I wouldn’t do it until next summer but I realized that I could wear a tee-shirt under (thanks to the stretched fabric LOL).
It is Isabelle’s fault and her Little Black dress if I bought this pattern
I made a back vent for the first time and the explanations were very clear.
I’d love to make that dress again, maybe in black (I hope you don’t mind Isabelle) as I think it is very “chic” and “indémodable” (as Isabelle well said).

Things are going back to normal with Plume. She doesn’t seem to suffer anymore (what a relieve). She walks normally, climbs on her favourite spots (near the window, on the table – she sometimes has troubles to climb on the sitting room’s table but it’s ok if she can use a chair to help her -). She even played a little with me earlier today.
Thanks again for all your good wishes.
