Angel of Spring Progress & More Books from Japan

3 more rows and I am finished with this page. After that, I will proceed to stitch the rest of her face. I am a big fan of B&W but when I strarted to stitch that teeny weeny bit of colours on her chest, I was so happy to finally see some colours beside B&W.

A package arrived from Japan again this morning. Who else could it be from? Michiko, of course! She helped me to buy 2 more felt books again. I am really looking forward to make this wedding cake. A huge thank you to Michiko again. I really feel very bad as Michiko wasn't feeling well last week but still she went to the post office to get my books posted out. That same evening, she had a high fever. Thank god, she recovers quite fast from the high fever.

This is another book which Michiko bought for me. A friend of mine just bought a huge Sylvanian House for her 2 daughters for Christmas and I thought it will be great to make some accessories to add into their Sylvanian families. I used to be a Sylvanian families collector too and I had them packed in a box and put it in the basement. I think I only took it out once to let my DD played with it but I packed them quickly away again. The accessories are so small and I really don't want them to be lost somewhere among her toys.

This is 1st of the 4th which I am making for the girls this Saturday. Sorry about the quality of the pictures. I need to buy a new card for my camera as it is broken. So, I am currently using my phone to take pictures and it is not easy to take brighter pictures sometimes. It is becoming a tradition that these 2 families are coming over to our house for the Danish Fastelavn every year. DD is looking so much forward to it. I am making 4 of these for her 4 friends that day and I hope I can finish them before Saturday. Well, if someone helps me to do the housework, I might even make 10 of them within this short period ;0)

This is the dress which DD decides for this year's Fastelavn. She will celebrate it on Friday in the kindergarten and then again on Saturday. Most probably she might want to go to neighbours on Sunday too as the actual day is on Sunday. I wonder when will she finally decides to be Tinkerbell. I really love that costume so much but for the past 4 years, she always say no when I asked her what she thinks of Tinkerbell.

I received my fabrics from Sew Creative last week. They are mostly Lecien fabrics and I managed to have 1/2m of this Timeless Treasures Ballet Slippers. Sew Creative didn't put this on their site but she told me she has it when I asked her for this and the music notes. Too bad, she doesn't has the music notes.

We had a snow storm last Tuesday and an unexpected one on Wednesday. We simply don't have any place for more snow. Our snow shovel broke and all shovels are sold out everywhere. Salt are running low everywhere too.

This place is just further down our house. I went out to the local supermarket to stock up some milk and flour on Monday (a day before the storm). I thought the scenary is really lovely. The middle white area is actually the lake and it was covered with snow or ice.
