Birthday present

Say a very good friend of yours is celebrating her birthday. 

And she explicitly asks for a Nijntje/Miffy bunny.

But you just cannot give the bunny as it is, right?

So you sew the bunny a red silk dress ;-)

And yes, this is real silk. 

Leftovers from an old dress of mine.

And yes, I made her black lacy underwear as well :-)

I should have known Part 2

About I year ago, I was complaining about the Sufferfest takeover by Systm. What a disappointment.

Well, now it's time to complain again. This time it's Duolingo that's made some drastic changes. And by drastic I mean unforgivable. So I'm sticking to it for a few more days, to reach the 1000 day streak, then it's time to say goodbye. 

Not all of us are linear learners, some of us want flexibility and choice. It's been nice knowing you, Duo.

Christmas card teaser

After abandoning the initial idea for this year's Christmas Cards, I've already got another one. Which seems too be working. But the utensils are ... rather unusual.

;-)
