Cabinet of Curiosities goodies

As some of you may now, I'm subscribed to the online class of the "Cabinet of Curiosities" by Patricia Nguyen (I've blogged about it here earlier).

Well ... last week I received the first goodies box carefully packed and filled to the brim.
I let the pictures speak for themselves (sorry if they're a tad dark but I took these early in the morning).





 
I'm eager to start the adventure but it'll have to wait some longer ... I have soo many things on the go that I can't justify to myself starting yet something else.
 
And ... still unsure if I'll buy a wooden casket at the end of the class (18 months - we're at the 7th now). It's awfully expensive but sooo tempting!

Imagine this ... covered with embroidery!

 
Have a nice weekend!

That's going to be something else! The only thing I've seen like that has been in the V&A Museum! Good luck.

Thank you so much for commenting on my blog! I've just been perusing yours and am very happy to have done so! Love all the goodies from the Cabinet of Curiosities! I took the class earlier, but have yet to finish anything at all. Very sad.

This time we travel to the south of Europe ... Italy being our destination ;-) RENATO PAROLIN I can't remember how I got to know the designs of Renato Parolin (who doesn't have a website nor a blog)... I suppose I've seen some of his designs on fellow stitchers' blogs. His - yes ladies a MALE designer - theme is nature with lots of trees, deer, doves, squirrels, owls, flowers and hearts. Once you've bought one chart, you want them all - trust me! Look at what I've gathered the last two years: And his lovely book which I already wanted to purchase for quite some time. It were her pictures - seen in Becky Bee's Christmas Ornament Challenge 2011 - that drew me over the line :-) I would like to stitch one of his larger designs the coming years namely: La Selva di Ries Il Bosco di Bengtsson La Pineta Di Classe                      F...

Happy Birthday to me!

Today is my 39th birthday! I never figured out whether mom did this on purpose or not ... just before Christmas (my birthday is never celebrated big time)! :-) I've received some money and a book coupon so I guess I'll do some stash enhancing ... cross stich, quilting or knitting ... what will it be? I'll keep you posted!

Long time no see

Well it has been an awfully long time since I last posted here but I switched to Instagram (annsombel) a couple of years back (December 2016 to be exact) as I encountered some problems with posting on Blogspot and I didn't always know what to say. I kept following all of you who also have Instagram profiles but I admit that I'm missing the rest of you so ... I'll be posting here sometimes (let's say once a month or maybe a bit less) to keep you updated :-). Summary of what I've been doing in a nutshell (longish text so skip this if you don't feel like it :-):  Beginning of 2018: Moncarpacho workshop by Willyne Hamerstein (from her Millefiori Quilts 3 book) April 2018: start on "Doing the Rounds" by Thimblestitch - more or less halfway through now 2018: working on "Camelot" by Trish Harper - finished in June 2019 July 2018 - October 2018: SAL 100 Modern Quilt Blocks by Tula Pink (still have to sew all the blocks together but some block changes...
