Happy Easter!, A table runner, a granny's Bag, Sock Monkeys


Happy Easter to everyone! These were days for praying for all our friends and relations who are sick. Days to say THANKS to Jesus who gave his life for each one of us.
After a few rainy days today the skies are open to celebrate this very special day Easter Sunday.
We also did a few more mundane things like cooking a big Trout, broke some Easter Eggs. A very special day to celebrate in the family.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Felices Pascuas a todos! Estos fueron dias de oracion por todos nuestros amigos y conocidos que estan enfermos. Dias de decir GRACIAS a Jesus que dio su vida por cada uno de nosotros.
Despues de varios dias de lluvia hoy se abrio el cielo para celebrar precisamente este dia especial Domingo de Pascuas.
Hicimos tambien cosas mas mundanas,  una Trucha enorme y rompimos varios Huevos. Es una fiesta muy especial para pasar en familia.





 
This table runner is for our friend Daniel who spent a few weeks in Hospital and is returning home soon.
 
---------------------------
 
Este caminero es para nuestro amigo Daniel que paso varias sermanas en Hospital y pronto retorna a su casa.


 
This Granny's Bag finished a few days ago but I still don't know whom will go to.
 
----------------------------------------
 
Este Bolso de Grannys lo termine hace unos dias pero todavia no se a quien ira.



 
I started with a pair of socks and a monkey came out.
Then more monkeys, is very addictive .
Now more "orders" impossible to be bored ha ha
 
---------------------------
Empeze con un par de calcetines y un monito salio de el.
Despues mas monitos, es muy adictivo .
Ahora mas "pedidos" imposible aburrirme jeeee

 
 



                                                  Happy Easter to all my crafty friends!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

                     Felices Pascuas a cada una de mis amigas artesanas!

Our visitors from Japan, Pouch Bags for friends, Tea Pot Cosy, cups holders, Table Quilt

Time flies for sure! I made a few things but I couldn't find a minute to come to post or talk a bit with my blogging friends.

El tiempo vuela seguro! Hice algunas cosas pero no pude encontrar un minuto para postear y charlar un rato con mis amigas blogueras.

and this for Faye

 
I had some tea cups with no handles and so very hot for the hands,
so I made a pad to each one.
Also a Cosy for the Tea pot.
 
Tenia unas tazas sin agarraderas muy calientes para las manos, asi que les hice un forro a cada una.
Tambien a la tetera.





 
Our dear friends Yutaka and Chizuko  from Osaka visited us for a week. What a lovely week it was!

Tantos regalos de ellos!



 
Between outings and meals together I made this Table Quilt for their table in Osaka.
 
-------------------------------------------------------
 
Entre paseos y comidas juntos hice este Quilt para su mesa en Osaka.

At the moment I have this vest in my needles and returning to my everyday life, and thinking
of each one of you. I miss you very much.
