Hilde's colors

Around the corner of the Arboretum is Hilde's beautiful, warm and colorful studio where she makes all her woollen art, felted an ecodyed.
I bought these alpaca wool. Plantdyed in gorgeous colors ........enough for a cosy winterpull.
Now i must learn knitting................

De hemel was blauw boven het Arboretum

de hemel was blauw boven het Arboretum vandaag, de zon scheen en het leek wel lente in de herfst..............




We hebben genoten van alle kleurtjes en morgen laat ik de kleurtjes zien die ik vandaag gekocht heb.

Visited the Arboretum in Kalmthout, Belgium.
Wonderful trees, colors and smells. It was almost spring in autumn.........
Tomorrow i show the colors i bought!

David versus Goliath

Omdat ik de Daheksen niet wil nummeren heb ik ze namen gegeven.
Deze heet David/Goliath. Je ziet zelf wel waarom.

Nu borduur ik bijtjes....om de wereld in te sturen!

Because i didn't want to number the Daheksen I gave them names.
This one i call David/Goliath.

Now i'm stitching little bees to send out in the world.

To live in this world






I love Mary Oliver's poems........

“to live in this world

you must be able
to do three things
to love what is mortal;
to hold it

against your bones knowing
your own life depends on it;
and, when the time comes to let it go,
to let it go”
Mary Oliver, New and Selected Poems, Vol. 1
