It's been a while...

I was looking back on my Facebook page in my "crochet" album and noticed I'm way behind on updating the blog. Shame on me :)

Now I'm back at Cross Stitching for a new baby due in November.  Still got some (a lot) of work to do on that sampler.

Long overdue!

Sometimes life gets in the way of blogging, of crocheting,... it's been a while since I've been here.  I've been on a 2 week holiday in May, and didn't really feel like creating stuff.  But I had an order to fill so now I'm back on track :).

This one came on holiday with us, there was a little girl waiting for this cute little donkey :)

 Always looking for new patterns. I was sold to this little "dude" straight away :) Reminded me of one of my favourite Disney movies, "Finding Nemo"

Another new baby at DH's work, this tough lion is moving to Turkey.  The pattern is called "Leeuw Lowie".  My son's name is also Lowie, I'm going to make this one for his bedroom as well :).

And this is the one that made me pick up my hooks and yarn again :) Also for a new baby. This is my 3rd Otto Elephant, I think I like this color combo best.  Someone already asked me for another green Otto, I guess I will be busy in the next couple of weeks :).
