This shabby chic
heart is made for a member of our Fibre Fever Group: Anne.
She lost her
husband one day before I lost my Simon.
In the Fibre Fever
group we are used to sew book pages in a
theme for each other and swap them.
When the ladies in
the group got the message from Anne and
me they decided to sew a book page with a heart on it for both of us.
It took a while
before I found my way to the sewing table again.
But now the result is
here and I am happy with it.
I hope Anne will
like it too.
The size is 15 x 15 cm.
It is made with old laces and a fabric back where I have written some words to Anne.
In a short time I
shall take photos of all the heart–pages I have received in the past weeks.
They are beautiful and made with love.
It goes up and down
with me. I have good days and bad ones.
The most difficult time
of the day is the evening when I eat my diner alone. And after that when I sit
in the living room and see TV programs which we used to watch together.
But I hope it will go better day after day.
I started sewing
the CQJP block for the month July.
That was the month
when I had my 70th birthday.
You will see it soon here on my blog.
Thank you all for
your kind letters and comments in the past weeks!

Ik ben blij dat je terug bent.
Natuurlijk zal het tijd kosten je draai weer te vinden. Maar op een dag zul je merken dat je weer enigszins "normaal" functioneert.
Dear Ati, condolences for your loss,it is never easy to lose someone you love, but life goes on and as time passes it becomes easier to live with the loss, good to see that you blogging again, you have made a very beautiful page for your friend, take care of yourself.
Hugs Anni
Je hebt er een heel mooi hart van gemaakt, en fijn dat je de moed weer opgebracht hebt om iets te gaan maken. Je ups en downs zul je houden, en toch wordt het op een dag milder. Na het verlies van onze dochter dacht ik ook dat ik nooit meer plezier kon maken, en ook dat is weergekomen, al blijft er altijd een randje zitten. Heel veel sterkte de komende tijd Tiny
Wat een prachtig hart heb je gemaakt! Ik ben blij voor je dat je toch weer de moed hebt om iets nieuws in elkaar te stikken.
Liefs, Ineke
A beautiful heart my dear, and created with such care> :)
Hugs,
Telkens weer delete ik mijn berichtje, niet wetend wat ik echt zal moeten schrijven.....Wetend wat verlies is en vervolgens niet de woorden vinden voor jou.....nou ja, meid : van mij een dikke knuffel en ik ben blij voor je dat je weer iets met je hobby doet......!!!!
The heart you made is beautiful Ati! So glad to hear that you are sewing again. Sending big hugs to you and may each day bring a piece of joy and laughter back into your day.
What a wonderful heart you have created, and its so wonderful to read that you have had the support of your sewing circle and have received some hearts. I am sure that they bring you a lot of comfort - knowing also that a lot of people are thinking of you and sending their warmest wishes
Hei! Så flott at du syr igjen!! Gode tanker til deg i en tung tid!! Annek:-)
I am so touched that your group make these hearts, so much love and support here, in time to come you will look at your pages and I am sure will continue t get great strength from them. Hang in there Ati we are all supporting you.
Good you are back op your stitching, I find it so calming and do not know what I would do without my needle.
Dearest Ati, it is normal for you to have those up and down times at any given moment on any given day. You just take care of yourself and continue to do what you love. So wonderful of the sewing group to make heart pages for you and Anne who have both experienced loss. Your heart is so very lovely and of course will be treasured by Anne herself. Hugs and blessings to you both, Tammy
Ook ik vind het moeilijk om woorden te vinden bij dit verdriet... Maar wens je sterkte en vind het knap zoals je probeert weer in het ritme te komen. Zal erg moeilijk zijn.
wat is dit super mooi werk Ati.
ik ben er weg van.
liefs van an
Dear Atti, beautiful heart, I admire your courage take one day at a time. God bless
hallo Ati ben even een rondje blogjes aan het doen en nu bij jouw aangekomen was je een beetje uit het oog verloren maar wat een naar bericht lees ik weet niet goed wat te zeggen wel wens ik je heel veel sterkte en met blijdschap zie ik dat je toch weer probeert iets te maken en zo als altijd weer heel mooi een dikke knuffel
liefs Emmy
Ati, you are doing very well and it's lovely to see you are managing some sewing. Your heart page is beautiful. I have been where you are now with so much paperwork. You will get through it and it will get less. Keep going, you are doing well.
when you feel alone at dinner, please remember you have many strangers from around the world thinking of you. It isn't the same, I know, but we are with you in spirit.
