forget me not

We have finally gotten a break and some warmer, dryer weather is on its way.
The cold, rainy weeks haven't been very creative but time was not wasted; I spent many evenings cuddled up on the couch watching DVDs and crocheting tiny flowers.

Here is the result, a large zippered wristlet, made from dark navy blue, almost grey cool wool cloth (the kind used for men's suits) and sewn on are tiny crochet flowers in light green hues, with blue embroidered stems.

The wristlet is lined with hand dyed cotton canvas in fresh cobalt blue and it has one mint green interior slip pocket.

Since little flowers remind me of forget-me-nots, I embroidered their French name, "ne m'oublie pas", on the back.
Don't forget, the summer is bound to come!



Spominčice

Končno smo dočakali tudi toplejše in bolj suho vreme! Ker sem pretekle deževne in zimsko mrzle večere v glavnem preždela na kavču ob gledanju DVDjev, sem uspela nakvačkati za manjši travnik rožic - zdaj je v trgovini na voljo nova torbica iz temno mornarsko modrega, skoraj sivega volnenega blaga, posuta s cvetkami, ki imajo izvezena stebla. Ker me rožice spominjajo na spominčice, sem na zadnjo stran torbice izvezla njihovo francosko ime "ne m'oublie pas". 
Ne pozabite, poletje zagotovo pride!
