Petra 's presents, teddy collection and garden 1.1 beauties!

Hello every one, thanks a lot for yous comments on my previous post!


I will post later the patron of the little teddy bear as already posted by mail to Noelle. 
But there are the presents I have received from Petra (simple presentation but I have to do a scene with all those beautifuls things). Enjoy cupcakes, chocolates and flowers!

A tea party needs to be done for such things.
And now back at home after to have been in my parents house for a long long time my teddy collection... I need to present you Guinness the penguin, Teddy the teddy which is a present for starting a collection from an old friend, Dingle the sheep coming from a trip between 4 girls in Kerry and Dingle peninsula, and Cocotte the little chicken,are they cute???

And there is my first vitrine, unfortunately I did not have pictures of the ones I have done before or after to finish this one. And please have with me a little pray for Liliane who was the nicest lady of our group of miniaturits who was doing so beautiful hats (the shaker one is hers because I did not manage to make it) and who left us too soon a few years ago....

An other day I have to show the 2 others hats I have bought to her....the pink box is from an old friend Karine, the hat inside is mine and my first patchwork on the back LOL

And for finishing some pictures got by my dear boyfriend of our garden, where I am sitting with my computer and a glass of nice rose. Dear followers, enjoy your evening! see you soon! doei, claude

If you know how this tree is supposed to be treated your advice are welcome.

The hortensias remind me my dear Brittany!!

Swap sent to Petra, welcome to my new followers!

Hi every  one, sorry to be so silent but I was really busy plus holidays plus plus... but I have tried to follow all the blogs around and left some comments... not so often that I would like.. 


Maybe you remember that I participate to the 1st July Xmas swap of Jazzy and Petra was my partner for it. 


Please find below what I have sent to her, but I have to start again a new picture of what she sent me because the sun was not really here the last week... and some others things which came back definitely from France in their new home...

A teddy bear that I have the patron since years.., cushion, little pyramid box in polar... cubes which are pearls, bag for baby crossed stitched, paper bag for Xmas shopping, bottle with dried flowers and some labels for perfume bottles that Petra is doing so well...


Also really important welcome to me my new followers, you are 83!!!!! Incredible for me! Give away is still in my mind...enjoy your day! Some roses from June for you all, thanks a lot!

Beterschapp Petra!

I have received a few days ago already my package from Petra, with my 1st July Xmas swap!!! but there is a reason why I have received so early... Petra needs to leave Nederland for going to get rest and getting back her health!

Beterschapp dear Petra!
