drawing challenge 161: spring break






the theme of this weeks drawing challenge 'spring break' is chosen by VERONICA
for the link to the other participants, please go here


for me spring break means spring-clean!
with the windows wide open
i declutter, clean cabinets and wash the curtains
fresh air in the house and in my head
in a box i found these crocheted circles
with the colors of beach, sea and dunes
which will be once a blanket
i can almost smell it
spring is coming!



voor mij betekent voorjaarsvakantie voorjaarsschoonmaak!
met de ramen wijd open
ruim ik op, maak kasten schoon en was de gordijnen
frisse lucht in het huis en in mijn hoofd
in een doos vond ik deze gehaakte cirkels
met de kleuren van het strand, zee en de duinen
die eens een deken zullen zijn
ik kan het bijna ruiken
de lente komt eraan!

  2. Jij hebt moed en veel geduld. Prachtig. Ben gek op grote hoeveelheden van dezelfde vorm. Ja ik weet het, dit is raar, 1 kastanje is noooiit genoeg... Vooral die open ramen, de frisse lucht, de was weer buiten, de jas los..... ja hoor, we zitten op 1 lijn!

  3. Patrice, when I viewed those gorgeous circles I really was struck by the soft colours and how they look so calm and peaceful together. I like the texture (very subtle) of these. And when I read that they depicted colours of the beach, sea and dunes, I thought that they were just perfect. It's nice to see them all displayed together. Happy spring to you!! *smiles* Norma, x

  4. Your beautiful circles takes me to Monet's garden with lily pads floating in the sunshine by the bridge. Spring means cleaning here to. Inside the house and in the garden. Time to bring out the table and chairs for morning coffees and toast. I hope you'll show us the blank when it's all sewn together. xo

  5. My dear Patrice,
    spring is here already, when looking at your mooi! patiently crocheted circles! (will be a beautiful blanket, maƱana). These colors! You are right... beach, sea and dunes... and some pink shells.
    I can feel your power has returned after a grey winter with flu and a kind of darkness. Makes me happy, Dear.
    Love xoxx
    Ariane.

  10. Me too, only trouble is for me now, the house looks more mixed up than before, like my sons says, maybe I am not finished in the spring clearing....

  11. Oh my gosh, did you make those? You're so clever. I decided to teach myself how to crochet once with very questionable results...lol. Love the fresh, spring colours. They will definitely make the most wonderful blanket. Spring cleaning is something I love to do. Out with the old and all that stuff. X

  16. I don't think of you as a crocheter, which is clearly silly of me as you so obviously are. I am not, but I'm learning.

  17. eens zijn ze een deken, ik beloof het je, en ik ken dat gevoel goed. jaren duurde het vooraleer mijn vierkantjes werden gerijgd, en nu ligt die blanket op bed. dus ja, hoor! het gebeurt!! n♥
