Het lijkt wel of de dagen voorbij vliegen. Ik dacht dat ik pas een blogje geschreven had maar dit blijkt alweer 2 1/2 week geleden te zijn.
9 September: Bij al die garen advent kalenders die in december komen, mag een heerlijke thee advent kalender van Your daily teacup (klik) niet ontbreken, dus die is inmiddels ook besteld. Tot 1 oktober nog met korting te bestellen ;-)
It seems the days are flying away. I thought I had write recently a blog post but it is already 2 1/2 weeks ago.
September 9: With all the yarn advent calendars that are coming in December, I also decided to order a tea advent calendar from the Dutch shop Your daily teacup (click).
Vanmiddag zijn we naar een plaatselijke pompoenmarkt geweest en daar hebben wij een aantal Hokkaido pompoenen voor de soep gehaald en een Butterscotch pompoen die ik gebruik om een cake mee te bakken. Ik maak de pompoensoep volgens eigen recept, HIER (klik) te vinden.
This afternoon we went to a local pumpkin market and we bought some Hokkaido pumkins for making soup and a Butterscotch pumpkin to bake a cake. I always make the pumpkinsoup following my own recipe, you can find it HERE (click).

13 September: Deze quilt ligt al bijna 5 jaar te wachten om door gequilt te worden, When the frost is on the pumpkin, uit het boek Country quilts for friends van Margaret Peters en Anne Sutton. Ik ben er eindelijk aan begonnen. Ik probeer er elke week eventjes aan te werken.
September 13: This quilt has been waiting for almost 5 years to be quilted, When the frost is on the pumpkin, from the book Country quilts for friends by Margaret Peters and Anne Sutton. I finally started and hope to quilt on it each week a bit.

Tot slot had ik ook nog bij Chapel View Crafts (klik) een mini advent kalender besteld. Ze maakt prachtige stitch markers and progress keepers (steek markeerders en voortgangs markeerders). De mini kalender houdt in dat er 15 items in zitten verspreid over 12 dagen. Ik maak dus om de andere dag een pakje open. Je kon ook het onderwerp kiezen: cakes, kerst of een mix van beide. Ik koos voor de laatste ;-)
I also ordered a mini advent calendar at Chapel View Crafts (click). She makes such beautiful stitch markers and progress keepers. The mini advent calendar means: 15 items all together included in the calendar spread over 12 days. So I open a package every other day. You could choose: cakes, christmas or a mix of both. I choose the last one ;-)
