Elephant for Villads

A letter for Christina. The owner of Astas, where I sell some of my stuff.

As I told you earlier my cousin had a son three weeks ago. Here he is. Isn't he beautiful? His name is Villads.

And here is the present I gave him: a crocheted elephant. His parents loved it!

Crocheted cape and children's play

This is my new cape. Crocheted on needle nr. 10. Fast and easy! My next project has to be something small for my cousin's newborn boy. Don't know what to make though... Baby shoes? A cuddly toy? A rattle? Any suggestions?

Children's construction set made out of wood. Nice box!

I remember these wooden pegs from my childhood. Maybe I can use the patterns on the box for cross stitching...

5. Use the linoleum cutter to cut out your drawing

6. Wanted two small stamps

ATTACK!
