Winterwool

















The winter clothing has been unpacked... 
The thick woolen socks, my favorite mittens and a bonnet.
I like the way they are knitted!
Underneath a very old man's shirt wich i use for sleeping in. The cotton is very soft and comfortable from a 1000 washes. 
I already look forward to go to bed...

Early in the morning

















This view looked like a painting to me.
The sheep are awake already, wondering in the morning fog. They look so peaceful!
The one in the middle, he saw me! Just after the picture is taken he ran towards the fence for some goodies.

Sausage dog and lop rabbit

















I've been busy around the house, preparing for winter.
I hope these animals will help keeping cold drafts out!

Bird migration

















Our days shorten and birds are preparing their journeys to the south.
These birdpieces go back into time. I situe them all in the late thirties.
A tissue, a brooch and the top part of pyjamas.

Two elphants

















An elephant mask and a drying dress.
And a little bird on top of its cage.

For a girl and for a boy of four

















I made these old fashioned shirts a while ago. A girl and a boy version.
There is a special holder in the pocket of the boy for putting in his favourite colour of pencil. He’s always ready to draw.
But it wasn’t a small boy who was dotting the girl shirt. It’s a beautiful old cotton tissue.
Dank u mevrouw M.R.

Green apples

















The last of the green apples, harvest time is over.
Now the ground is covered with walnuts.
Hmm, a great combination for making cakes!
