&lt;p&gt;Ce magnifique centre de table matelass&#xe9; en patchwork de tissus anciens pour la plupart est le cadeau merveilleux que j&apos;ai re&#xe7;u aujourd&apos;hui, venant d&apos;Italie de la part de la douce Yuko de &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.casamiainitalia.com/&quot;&gt;Casamia&lt;/a&gt;. Inutile de pr&#xe9;ciser que je l&apos;A-D-O-R-E ! Et il est tellement bien assorti &#xe0; mon int&#xe9;rieur que je suis aux anges. Mille mercis, ma ch&#xe8;re Yuko !&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;This sophisticated patchwork quilt mat is the wonderful gift I received today from Italy from my sweet friend &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.casamiainitalia.com/&quot;&gt;Yuko&lt;/a&gt;. Most of the fabrics used are vintage ones. No need to say that I L-O-V-E it ! And I feel sooo happy as it fits perfectly with my furniture ! Thanks so much, dear Yuko !&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Un changement dans ma vie professionnelle ne me permet plus d&apos;&#xea;tre aussi pr&#xe9;sente et productive c&#xf4;t&#xe9; broderie et couture, j&apos;ai rarement assez de temps pour me connecter sur le net. Je suis en retard pour la confection de bon nombres de cadeaux d&apos;anniversaires de croipines, je pense en particulier &#xe0; Catherine, Laurence, Corinne, Chantal, Isabelle, V&#xe9;ronique, ainsi qu&apos;aux attentions que je comptais adresser &#xe0; Kristin et Marie-Louise. Je suis vraiment d&#xe9;sol&#xe9;e de ce retard et j&apos;esp&#xe8;re pouvoir me rattraper prochainement.&lt;/p&gt;</description><pubDate>Sun, 06 Sep 2009 11:15:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>COMME LA CIGALE... / JUST LIKE THE CICADA...</title><dc:creator>myfairylily</dc:creator><link>http://auvieuxtrousseau.canalblog.com/archives/2009/06/03/13955720.html</link><category>DE MES DIX DOIGTS / HANDMADE</category><comments>http://auvieuxtrousseau.canalblog.com/archives/2009/06/03/13955720.html#comments</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://auvieuxtrousseau.canalblog.com/feeds/rss/comments/post/13955720/</wfw:commentRss><guid isPermaLink="true">http://auvieuxtrousseau.canalblog.com/archives/2009/06/03/13955720.html</guid><description>&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;img height=&quot;149&quot; alt=&quot;mf007&quot; src=&quot;http://storage.canalblog.com/86/41/534180/40280670.jpg&quot; width=&quot;200&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Pour celles d&apos;entre vous qui ne le savent pas, j&apos;habite dans le sud de la France, donc rien d&apos;&#xe9;tonnant &#xe0; ce qu&apos;une cigale soit venue chanter chez moi aujourd&apos;hui... hormis que la cigale en question &#xe9;tait d&apos;une esp&#xe8;ce bien sp&#xe9;ciale puisque ce n&apos;&#xe9;tait autre que mon amie Marie-Fran&#xe7;oise alias &amp;quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://commelacigale.canalblog.com/&quot;&gt;comme la cigale&lt;/a&gt;&amp;quot;. Sa visite a &#xe9;t&#xe9; l&apos;occasion de lui offrir son cadeau d&apos;anniversaire. Quelques attentions dans le paquet : une plaque &amp;quot;bienvenue dans mon atelier&amp;quot; repeinte et d&#xe9;cor&#xe9;e par mes soins, un coussinet &amp;quot;amiti&#xe9;&amp;quot; avec nos deux initiales brod&#xe9;es (la grille est de Yuko de &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.casamiainitalia.com/&quot;&gt;Casamia&lt;/a&gt;), de vieilles bobines en bois pr&#xe9;sentant un ruban rouge et un ruban de marque &#xe0; ses initiales, un torchon de cuisine ancien,et une figurine en pl&#xe2;tre repr&#xe9;sentant une arl&#xe9;sienne.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;For those of you who do not know already, I live in the south of France then no wonder that a cicada came and sang at home today... except that the cicada was a special one as it was my friend Marie-Fran&#xe7;oise alias &amp;quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://commelacigale.canalblog.com/&quot;&gt;just like the cicada&lt;/a&gt;&amp;quot; who came and visited me. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;It was the occasion for me to offer her birthday present to her. I had packed several gifts : a wooden board which I repainted and decorated my own way. The stitched part means &amp;quot;welcome in my atelier&amp;quot;. And also a little cushion &amp;quot;friendship&amp;quot; with both our initials on it (the chart is by Yuko from &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.casamiainitalia.com/&quot;&gt;Casamia&lt;/a&gt;), antique wooden spools which I used to roll a ribbon and her initial tape up, a vintage handtowel and the plaster figurine of an &amp;quot;arlesienne&amp;quot;.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Ils sont remplis de graines de lin et de lavande.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Yesterday evening, in 30 minutes of my spare time, I made these 2 mini cushions : the 1st one for my needles, and the 2nd one for my pins. I stuffed them with linen seeds and lavander. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Voici quelques menus tr&#xe9;sors r&#xe9;colt&#xe9;s lors de mes derni&#xe8;res chines... des livrets anciens Sajou, une boite en bois DMC et une boite en fer remplie de boutons de nacre. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Here are a few little treasures I found recently while bargain hunting... antique booklets by Sajou, a vintage DMC wood box, an old tin box filled with mother-of-pearl buttons. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;Le nouveau hobby de &lt;a href=&quot;http://mespetitescroixetc.over-blog.com/&quot;&gt;S&#xe9;verine&lt;/a&gt;... c&apos;est le tricot ! A l&apos;occasion de son anniversaire, je tenais &#xe0; lui confectionner un cadeau de circonstance : voici donc l&apos;&#xe9;tui &#xe0; aiguilles que je lui ai adress&#xe9;. Les aiguilles qui garnissent l&apos;&#xe9;tui appartenaient &#xe0; ma grand-m&#xe8;re.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;My friend &lt;a href=&quot;http://mespetitescroixetc.over-blog.com/&quot;&gt;Severine&lt;/a&gt;&apos;s new hobby is knitting, then I had decided to handmade a gift relating to knitting for her birthday : and there it is, here is the needles sheath I sent her. As for the needles displayed in the sheath, they belonged to my grandmother.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;PS : Pour celles qui s&apos;inqui&#xea;tent de mon absence sur la bloggosph&#xe8;re (merci pour vos messages)... rassurez-vous : je vais bien. Simplement, j&apos;ai chang&#xe9; d&apos;emploi r&#xe9;cemment et mon nouveau job demande beaucoup de mon temps. Une fois que j&apos;aurais tout mis en place, je devrais avoir plus de temps pour mes hobbies. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;PS : For those of you who are wondering if I am fine : yes, I am ! You haven&apos;t seen me on my blog for a while and the reason for is because my job has changed lately, and my new position requires a lot of my time. Once everything&apos;s set at work, hopefully I&apos;ll have more spare time for my hobbies... and truth be told, I can&apos;t wait !! :o)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
