Pincushion swap. Part 1

For some time I haven't updated you, my dear reader with what happens now. So, it's spring finally here in Latvia as well! Sun is shining and weather get's better day by day.  Just before these warm and nice days I signed up for a pincushion swap hosted by Bea. Yes, I have took a part of this kind of swap earlier (this is my current pincushion). Different from previous swap - this lasts for 3 months. Each month we are supposed to send a pincushion for other person. So here you go my April swap.

I received lovely purple pincushion from Laila (Norway). She sent me a local chocolate but it couldn't wait for taking photos so I ate it  :) Pincushion is small, but I love it. Probably because of colors and perfect embroidery. Laila, if you read this, Thank you SO MUCH! I love it! 

And here is a picture of pincushion (and some other goodies) I sent to my partner Turid (Norway). She posted some more photos in her blog here.

Hopefully I will manage to sew a pincushion to my next partner soon and keep you updated more frequently!  Meanwhile, have a great weekend! 

It's Easter day already!

To all of you who celebrate this day, let me wish you - Happy Easter! And for everyone who don't celebrate it - have a great spring day! I hope weather at the place where you are, is much more better than it is here in Latvia - we have +2C (it's 35.6F)!  :)

Mazs pakāpiens uz priekšu

Šodien ir gana raiba diena - darbā piedzīvots Pēdējais zvans, sastādīts eksāmens, izstaigāta pus Rīga, lai atrastu pūstās sikla pērles. Un turklāt vēl - pievienojos latviešu komandai Etsy vietnē, kur ļoti raženi veidojām izlases ar visiem skaistajiem darbiņiem (drīz sekos kāds ieraksts arī par to). Paralēli izmēģināju savas jaunās zīda krāsas un jau man žūst pirmā šokolādes kaklasaite. Un kamēr tā žūst, tikmēr izveidoju savus papīra maisiņus. Turpmāk pircēji manas kaklasaites saņems iepakotas gaumīgā (protams,par gaumi jau nestrīdas, bet tomēr...) papīra maisiņā, kam virsū redzama mana kontaktinformācija.
Un kā jau katrā medus mucā, arī šovakar ir savs darvas piliens: mana kliente Anglijā vēl joprojām nav saņēmusi manu kaklasaiti, kas mani ļoti apbēdina...
