winter solstice

Tomorrow  will be winter solstice .
From the next day, the time for sunrise becomes slightly early.
It is a day to feel hope and  rebirth  at winter solstice.
This scenery is the sunrise to show from my house.

These are the ornaments of Birds of a feather  which made several years ago.
It is my favorite.
Have a  wonderful holiday!

Four Santa Claus

Red Santa 
Gold Santa
  Black Santa
 Green Santa

These are Santa Claus of Birds of a feather. I displayed it lengthwise.
I used the branch of the tree of garden for the substitute of the bell pull.
I dyed the linen with the husk of the chestnut.

So I love Birds of a feather. My daughter loves them, too. I presented these stitches  to her.

Swiss roll??

I made mat so that a desk was not damaged when I put scissors.
Then I rolled the ends of the mat slightly. It is similar to a Swiss roll.
I use it as a pincushion here.

I made the design of the stitch in reference to an old chart book.
Near my house, there is the station named [The happiness station].
It is already a deserted station here. However, a lot of tourists still come.
The name of the neighboring station is[ The country of the love]!
The ticket of these two stations is popular as a lucky charm. The train does not go anymore, but still sells the ticket.
The tourist has a custom posting a business card of each person or a memo on here. The old station building is filled in them and does not see a wall.

This is a signboard of the English sentence

wonderful present

A wonderful present arrived from my friend Keiko.  Her stitch is very beautiful!!
I love designs of this BOAF!

She presented the wonderful embroidery thread to me, too.
Those threads are called  MATALBON.
It is a thread produced in Japan. I have not used this thread. There is a very soft impression.
I look forward to using it.   Thank you, Keiko!!!

It is December soon. Swans came flying in a field nearby.
They spend  in here and a riverbank nearby until spring. They are winter beautiful messengers for us.

We went to "the sulfur mountain" the other day.
At this place, very hot gas gushes out and is known as a sightseeing spot.

This is powder of sulfur.
This is still hot and  like "The Super Natural" of the TV drama!

Needle Organizer??

I put a pincushion in a frame of the wood.
In the blank, I write marks and numbers of the threads.
I am going to use it as a very simple needle organizer.

Various fruits grew on my garden.
The Rose hips. A field grape. A Japanese beauty-berry.

What will these translate it as in English?
Do you call it a nut ?
Do you call it a berry?
Or are there other names?

Anyway, I love these colors.

Night Time in Olde Towne

The　Olde Towne is finished. I'm really happy about that!

In a park nearby, a squirrel ate a pinecone.  Very pretty!

In the field near my house, the farmer is drying the azuki beans.

They looked like  the  dwarf's house.
