Amelia' s First Communion dress, some more patchwork and a cardigan

What a shock I had! I lost all my pictures!and it was all my fault. I wanted to clear my space in Picasa thinking I would make more space for pictures in my blog silly me. They' re gone and there is nothing I could do but add the pictures one by one again GRRRRR
-----------------------------------------------

Que shock tuve! Perdi todas mis fotos! y fue toda culpa mia.
Queria dejar mas espacio en Picasa pensando que haria mas espacio para fotos en mi blog, lo tonta que soy. Se han ido y no hay nada que pueda hacer aparte de agregar las fotos una a una otra vez GRRRRR

Apart of that I was very busy finishing the First Communion dress for Amelia, the pretty little daughter of a friend.

I had been busy busy busy....

First I made Ariane' s First Communion Dress. A simple but elegant chiffon dress with corsage fully drapped and 2 thin straps. It closed at the back with loops and covered buttons.
A sheer bolero completed the picture.

Almost at the same time I knitted this burgundy wool cardigan for Pixi, Ariane' s mum and daughter of my great friend Olga.

She brought me these gorgeous flowers, now on my kitchen bench.....

Every time I look at them, a big smile on my face

I also manage to finish my latest cardigan, which I started about 2 months ago but was interrupted again and again- it was only mine. The colour is more like coral, not exactly the red of the picture.

At the moment I am half way my eldest son' s jumper. Is a lovely denim wool that promises to please him.

And I have a cupboard full of wool for future projects, plus I ordered yesterday more from Bendigo.

This is more than a addiction. Is like an obsession hahaha
