They are very welcoming people and often have guests staying, friends from all over the globe.. Alice is a wonderful cook, tasty veggie stuff. And for the last 4 or 5 years has discovered crocheting, which I have no patience or skill for whatsoever! She has crocheted many presents for various friends and family, including cakes(my favourite is batenberg and donuts!) a beaver, a fish, a cat in a bin....and blankets for Minna and this next one!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2740878909572072898-3976589461939158291?l=amystitch.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Amy Hauschildhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14607109991889870395noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2740878909572072898.post-29762911561591051422011-10-30T07:53:00.000-07:002011-10-30T08:04:34.896-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-E9xYjdetlZc/Tq1liYFr4LI/AAAAAAAAAIE/ojym6Pce3-4/s1600/dogincup.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-E9xYjdetlZc/Tq1liYFr4LI/AAAAAAAAAIE/ojym6Pce3-4/s400/dogincup.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5669299147185578162" border="0" /></a>I am presently making an embroidery for my sister and her hubby. It's one which I have long promised to make. I wanted it to reflect all the aspects of their life together. It all seemed so overwhelming so I have just put it off for perhaps the last 4 years...they travel everywhere and have many interests. But after the last Selvedge magazine and reading about Arthur Bispo do Rosario I got all inspired. So I started with this dog in a cup which is the sort of thing which can bring a tear to my sisters eye on a vulnerable day. Then I continued with individual pictures which I will put together in the end joining with braids, ribbons and the like. Not buttons as Charlie has a phobia of them.<br />I aim to complete this in the next 3 weeks so I can take it to the UK and give it in person!<br /><br />I was planning on it all being hand embroidered but due to time limitation I dug out the sewing machine...!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2740878909572072898-2976291156159105142?l=amystitch.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Amy Hauschildhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14607109991889870395noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2740878909572072898.post-8201250572204449032011-10-30T07:46:00.001-07:002011-10-30T07:53:51.989-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DcZgka8y5x0/Tq1jahsjaGI/AAAAAAAAAH4/4nfT9EKGopg/s1600/smallsquirrel.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DcZgka8y5x0/Tq1jahsjaGI/AAAAAAAAAH4/4nfT9EKGopg/s400/smallsquirrel.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5669296813302311010" border="0" /></a>This one I made for my friend Anne who also turned 40 in October. I spent so long making this and felt quite teary that I wasn't able to give it to her in person. I have known Anne all my life and it's at times lilke birthdays or births of children that I feel sad that I live so far away in Denmark!<br />Anyway she was most happy with her present so that made it all worth while, and I am planning on a quick trip over soon to the UK so hopefully we will meet up!

She is so very happy with herself and I wonder sometimes what took her so long (She is 19 months!) But hey she's a cautious lass... I have now overcome my block of using the laptop for blogging, (any excuse) truth is I'm a lazy lump and have only made embroideries for presents and not found time to pursue my dwindling enthusiasm for the sewing machine... Who would have thought that Minna finding her legs could ignite the necessary drive.<br />Will ensure it lasts, and put my book down more often.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2740878909572072898-6071459878466692512?l=amystitch.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Amy Hauschildhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14607109991889870395noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2740878909572072898.post-16099275457282703372010-10-23T06:27:00.000-07:002010-10-23T06:31:16.943-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/TMLjGTj341I/AAAAAAAAAG8/zuYpcdgBc6w/s1600/harechair-6.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/TMLjGTj341I/AAAAAAAAAG8/zuYpcdgBc6w/s400/harechair-6.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5531232989833847634" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/TMLjBAseTqI/AAAAAAAAAG0/Sd_if7LbZpY/s1600/harechair-5.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/TMLjBAseTqI/AAAAAAAAAG0/Sd_if7LbZpY/s400/harechair-5.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5531232898870300322" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/TMLi78dAZGI/AAAAAAAAAGs/GGicAY7mB34/s1600/harechair-4.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/TMLi78dAZGI/AAAAAAAAAGs/GGicAY7mB34/s400/harechair-4.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5531232811832337506" border="0" /></a><br />so the idea is using Danish designer chairs with hares on them....and hand embroidering a pattern on the chair, I've also started some chairs which are applique, some furnishing fabrics or whatever I find suitable, I'm not sure they work as well as these ones however...

The top is way too big hence the rolled up sleeves but I thought she should model it, makes a better photo than folded up.<br /><br />I also made a clothkits dress for her, I did it to age 2. I loved my clothkits clothes as a child and remember them not only being fun designs, comfortable and I could match my older brother and sis but in different colours . Anyway after having sent the first kit back I realised today that the lining I had was too small... ho hum perhaps Minna will have to make do with one dress.

It cost 50 kroner about £5.<br /><br /> I have had a doll house project in my head for years I orginally wanted to buy a cupboard to convert to a house but then couldn't find the right one. Then decided to make it from scratch, also bit hard but could be fun.. anyway going to renovate this, story of my life, make trash to treasure...<br /><br /> I would like to get various people to contribute a little made item to put in the house so it's meaningful for Minna when she's older. I fear that I will get more pleasure from this than she will, she may be a tom boy and hate dolls...!!?!<br /><br />Glad the toilet seat is down....<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/TDoTu5aIj1I/AAAAAAAAADw/aBTKQG5QJok/s1600/dhtoilet.jpg"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/TDoTu5aIj1I/AAAAAAAAADw/aBTKQG5QJok/s320/dhtoilet.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5492724391937085266" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/TDoT6oMYeLI/AAAAAAAAAD4/iXXM32ELANQ/s1600/dhbed.jpg"><img style="float: right; margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/TDoT6oMYeLI/AAAAAAAAAD4/iXXM32ELANQ/s320/dhbed.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5492724593474435250" border="0" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2740878909572072898-9170500940277893805?l=amystitch.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Amy Hauschildhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14607109991889870395noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2740878909572072898.post-70217316664093623562010-07-11T11:41:00.001-07:002010-07-11T11:46:50.563-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/TDoQk1GWR0I/AAAAAAAAADY/W4WSpuYbnNI/s1600/dreamgarden.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/TDoQk1GWR0I/AAAAAAAAADY/W4WSpuYbnNI/s400/dreamgarden.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5492720920446781250" border="0" /></a><br />today we went for a walk through Vistoft, our village, with Christians parents and my parents and called on one of the neighbours who have the most amazing garden this is just part of it and I got tears in my eyes as I think it the most beautiful garden ever.

This is one of my first efforts... It's A6 size so quite small really and I have used decent paper inside, so it has a good quality feel to it. I have made 4 more which I will be putting on my etsy site soon... hopefully if I get myself together to take decent photos and I need to retake the photos already on etsy as they're too dark...<br /><br />I feel as if I'm losing the plot a bit today, my mind is turning jelly-like and I want to just sit and read or watch telly. So I forced myself to get into the annex and write a couple of posts to keep up. I have 3 weeks left before my due date so I'm going to blame my enormous bulk for me being 'out of it'...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2740878909572072898-6946673845176859076?l=amystitch.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Amy Hauschildhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14607109991889870395noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2740878909572072898.post-50512042918280869632009-11-07T03:16:00.001-08:002009-11-07T03:20:11.408-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/SvVXS_UNvvI/AAAAAAAAACI/3y9YawNcciM/s1600-h/fabric1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/SvVXS_UNvvI/AAAAAAAAACI/3y9YawNcciM/s400/fabric1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401319311846260466" border="0" /></a><br />I love this fabric, which is a modern Japanese fabric.<br />it has French written on the jars but I think it looks Swedish. I have a metre of it and don't know what to use it for yet. I'm sure that I will have it for a while then suddenly make it into a skirt or a bag or something...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2740878909572072898-5051204291828086963?l=amystitch.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Amy Hauschildhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14607109991889870395noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2740878909572072898.post-11381083993401974662009-10-30T07:53:00.000-07:002009-10-30T08:12:46.962-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/Sur_j1NjcpI/AAAAAAAAACA/BIbXM37IMYo/s1600-h/diarydeer.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/Sur_j1NjcpI/AAAAAAAAACA/BIbXM37IMYo/s320/diarydeer.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5398408094401393298" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/Sur_XojQIzI/AAAAAAAAAB4/wF0to82dloo/s1600-h/diarywoodpecker.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/Sur_XojQIzI/AAAAAAAAAB4/wF0to82dloo/s320/diarywoodpecker.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5398407884844311346" border="0" /></a>Here are 2 more pages from my diary... it's what I wrote about the other day with the cheeky deer and the lovely woodpecker!<br /><br />The colours of the trees at the moment are beautiful, what an amazing season Autumn is! I saw a clearing in a forest yesterday which got me thinking of 'The Lorax' by Dr. Suess a great book of it's time! I must find it out on Amazon and get it...<br /><br />Looking forward to a purchase arriving which I made with Skinny Laminx, I'm getting ready for Christmas presents! Exciting stuff love her prints...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2740878909572072898-1138108399340197466?l=amystitch.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Amy Hauschildhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14607109991889870395noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2740878909572072898.post-81215125842036179862009-10-24T04:24:00.000-07:002009-10-24T04:33:28.774-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/SuLk7KXMTfI/AAAAAAAAABw/dwms3bMHgJc/s1600-h/diaryfyn.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 259px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/SuLk7KXMTfI/AAAAAAAAABw/dwms3bMHgJc/s320/diaryfyn.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5396127008588320242" border="0" /></a>This is a picture from my sketchbook, it's me and Christian on the beach on Fanø, where we went for a long weekend 2 weeks ago. It's a lovely small island off the west coast of Denmark. The beach you can drive on for miles, there are even bus stops! There were many people looking for amber, we didn't bother, it was so cold we got out of the car for about 5 minutes and drove off again! I forgot I enjoy sketching, I'm not brilliant but it's fun so I've decided to do more of it!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2740878909572072898-8121512584203617986?l=amystitch.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Amy Hauschildhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14607109991889870395noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2740878909572072898.post-86027091616275709422009-10-21T01:54:00.000-07:002009-10-21T06:06:09.410-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/St7NLayF2XI/AAAAAAAAABo/IckEWlzd7wk/s1600-h/studio.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_--4ZZ8tHJgE/St7NLayF2XI/AAAAAAAAABo/IckEWlzd7wk/s320/studio.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5394974999688108402" border="0" /></a>here is a picture of my studio space, this is where I sit at the sewing machine and look out over our pond in the garden.
