The Princess and the Pea

Some people are very sensitive about almost everything and some aren't. Sometimes it is a good thing and sometimes not. As you know - the real princess was so sensitive that she could feel a tiny pea even if it laid under numerous of cushions. It was difficult for the princess to get to sleep but after a night with a little sleep she got an enormous prize: the Prince Charming asked her hand <3

Now I have finished all nine blocks of Once Upon a Time quilt. I feel a little plaintive because I have enjoed so much to stitch these. Before I can put blocks together I have to do some shopping. In the sashings I want to use the same fabric which I have used in backround of stitching. But I haven't it enough - I hope I'll still find it.

The Three Little Pigs and the Ugly Duckling

I have finished two blocks of Once Upon a Time quilt more. The other one represents a fairy tale of the Three Little Pigs who moved from home and made own houses. The third pig was the most assiduous brother and made a strong house of bricks. The first and second pigbrother made weak houses and they were menaced by a big bad wolf. Fortunately the third pigbrother was a very kind too. He helped his brothers and they all were in safe in the brick house.

The eighth block of quilt represents the Ugly Duckling. The appearance might sometimes delude us - everything is not always the same what it first looks like. Other animals were rude and mistreated the ugly duckling because it was unsimilar to other ducklings. But the ugly duckling brought up as a beautiful swan - to which all the others looked up.

Thumbelina

I'm back in blogland :) The fifth block of Once Upon a Time BOM is Thumbelina. Thumbelina was very small but she had many friends who helped her during her adventure. She also met many other beings who had a different way of life and different values. Yes - everybody who has a friend is a lucky one. The best friends will stay with us in ups and downs. But people who agree always with me aren't necessarily best for me. I think that it is very fruitful to get to know other cultures and other ways of living - as Thumbelina did.

I have found friends from blogland. Thank you for everybody to visit my blog and especially thanks for all of you who have shared your blogs with us!
