Small order and other topics

I wonder how fast time goes by! I read many blogs, left some comments but did not more. On April, 6th my little one had his 4th birthday! It was a Good Friday. Family came, we had variety of fish dish , cakes and Mike was very excited about everything. He had a lot of fun - as we all had, a lot of gifts, great weather. It was very nice. Unfortunately the pics I made are corrupted!!! Ughh - I took so cute pics on birthday morning!! We sang for him, he got a nice decoration, a first present and he was so sweet with his crown. Two years ago I sewed a crown for my bithday kids. Mike wanted to wear the crown the whole day long, he played, ran, and it was hot outside - his forehead sweated because of the fibre (don't know exactly what kind of fibre - but it's very gold and that is important to my boys), but no chance to put it off his head!!! So - no pics from that birthday.... :-( But we will keep it in our minds. A week after we had a party with 5 kids from his kindergarten - very jolly. A few games, a treasure hunt in his sandcastle, a small handicraft, cakes and hot sausages with French fries, a tiny gift for each of them and the kids were happy! Me too.....

There were also some (negative) private things that whirled us, but that's life.

But now something quilty. Yesterday I made a choir book binding - an order as a present for a communion. The girl has chosen blue colors.
Below you can see two bindings I made last year for my nice and nephew.
The bindings are approx. 11 x 16 cm.
I made some progress on my flower application, sewed on the squares, basted it, so that it's now to be quilted. Mind work - how to quilt it now ? A picture is coming soon.
I also helped my SIL to make her curtains. The project is not completely finished. She needs more...

Good news: I received my siggies from Cynthia, too. They are so nice and so different and so inspiring and ...and........ Thank you to all participants! I visited yet some blogs, but not all!

I got a surprise-letter from Bea ( a D13 siggy-block and some fabrics for my hexagon-quilt) - thank you Bea!!!
I also received a nice siggy-block from Connie - thank you so much - mine is on the way to you !
The postman - he is never ever going to be out of work as long as he delivers my letters and packages - brought me some very necessary envelopes full of fabrics, magazines, and so sweet patterns (show you pics the next time). I think, I am a happy quilter :o)) I also will never be out of work, as long as the postman brings me envelopes and packages....

So, that's it for now. I am too lazy to write this post twice, so I wrote "just" in english.


Gratitudes:
- two healthy, lively boys who still give me lots of hugs and kisses
- my dear husband, who always put a smile on my face
- great weather that makes me feel so ...sunny...
- my quilty hobby

Congratulations for your younger boy. We can have an idea about his party from your description. The choir book binding is a lovely gift for a communion.
