I have made some of Nadine's favourite Tea and Karendianne is bringing some scones later... Have you seen her Great Recession Spools: they are fantastic and she will surely make you laugh!
I thought you'd like to sit outside, even though it is still a bit chilly, I am sure for all you longing for Spring this will be just right. And for those of you enduring the heat of summer: Be refreshed. Maybe I can serve you some cold home-made Lavender Lemonade instead?
It has been so much fun visiting you all this week getting to know you better
and sharing your Klosjes.
Today I would like to welcome Rose Marie to our Little Band of Spoolers. She is doing such a lovely variation: applique... Please go see for yourself! And she assures me that the Maple Syrup harvest this year is looking to be a good one! :)
As for me, I have been keeping myself distracted from allergies by making another 30 Klosjes.
I passed the 100 mark without even realizing it! Yeay! I am having so much fun with these-- and getting to know all of you in the process is sheer Delight! I love sharing this project with you...
I also sent my Spring Surprise yesterday.
Here's a teaser for my swap-partner Tammy...
Hoping you enjoyed our little visit together.
Now, shall we perhaps continue this conversation at your place?
:)
ps. Please, go see Gerda's KlosjesQuilt:
she's almost done hand-quilting and it a sight to behold!

Thanks for the beautiful picures!! Love your spools!! And also the Great Recession Spools Karendianne made are so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your little balcony!!
Tjonge! De 100 al gehaald. Zover ben ik nog niet. Ze zien er fantastisch uit. En het weer op Cyprus is blijkbaar een stuk beter dan hier in dit kikkerlandje: in mijn tuin bloeien alleen nog sneeuwklokjes, zoals je hebt gezien. Succes met je klosjes. Je gaat echt als een speer. Ben heel benieuwd hoe je quilt er straks uitziet: vast giga-fantastisch!
ReplyDeleteYou throw a wonderful tea party Valentina! You are the perfect host. 100 Klosjes!!!! Congratulations. I am now up to 13. It is so exciting today to check out everyone's blogs to see how they are all going.
ReplyDeleteJe hebt flink door geklost deze week dertig stuks en ze zien er TOP uit, als je zo door klost heb je me zo ingehaald, ha, ha, ha. Nou het is geen wedstrijd maar hobby.
ReplyDeleteFijn weekend geniet van het lekkere weer, wij kunnen alleen met de winterjas aan buiten zitten, maar de lente komt er aan.
Groetjes Hennie.
Your balcony is beckoning, your teapot is a beautiful shade of blue and I fear if I sit down for too long I'll never get anything done! I'm here and off to start my Klosjes. I don't think I'll near your stack of 100, which may I say is a grand MILESTONE! I'm utterly thrilled for you. Oh how happy that is. Before I get busy let me just say this balcony is really comfy and I think maybe just one quick sip of tea. The scones aren't quite ready...
ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful place to sit and make klosjes .... bravo on making 100!
ReplyDeleteJe gaat wel heel goed vooruit met de klosjes.Succes verder.
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty flowers! Soon we will have them here too. Today it is pouring rain, dark and very damp. The perfect day to make Klosjes and drink lots of tea. How wonderful you have passed the 100 mark with your Klosjes! You go girl!
ReplyDeleteyour "klosjes"are beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteI put a picture of mine "klosjesquilt"on my blog...

Thanks for your very nice comments on my blog Valentina.
ReplyDeleteI am trying to look away from your lovely blog at the moment because I can hear your "klosjes" calling me. They look soooo tempting. No, no, no I will resist.... if I can
*Speak* to you soon!
Celine
I love your photos. Always so creative, my fave being the spools in the little wooden box. Lavender Lemonade? YUM!!!
ReplyDeleteYour little city balcony for tea looks as inviting as your klosjes :)
ReplyDeleteHi Valentina, Great Klosjes as usual. I wish I was having tea with you on your beautiful balcony. I have to make some very soon. Hugs Sharron
ReplyDeleteI started this week my Klosjes quilt, congrats for your 100', beautiful blog.
ReplyDeleteI love all the klosjes quilts in blogland!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the whole swapparcel!
Dank je voor je reactie en voor het noemen in je berichtje. Ik vind het erg leuk om te zien dat zoveel mensen met de klosjes bezig zijn en allemaal op hun eigen manier. Ik ben aan het bedenken hoe ik de klosjesquilt zal maken. Ik laat dat nog wel zien. Ik heb genoten van je berichtje!
ReplyDeleteGroetjes
Annemieke

ReplyDeleteI love your little spools! How lovely to see the box getting more full, rather like making hexies! I am looking forward to seeing what you make with them all.
