mooimiek

Hello, I am Annemieke, almost 40, crafting is not my hobby anymore. I started being a professional teacher in crafts (sewing, crocheting, felting) And started organizing workshops for different groups of people in the North of Holland. A study ('creatieve handvaardigheid bij Kunstencentrum Groningen') is a challenge to get my crafts and my technics and arts on a higher level.

Mooimiek is the name of my own brand. I like to create new things of fabric and I put a label on it.

Sewing is my kind of thing; what I see, my hands can make it... (or would like to)

On my blog you can see the results of my crafty things; But I decided to go on in Dutch, because I better can put my feelings in it.

I love bright colours like red, orange, aqua, lime. And Birds and flowers! (On fabric or in my garden!) Looking for different pieces of fabric and put them together gives me a good feeling, so maybe, I should become a quilter? Danish design or retro, I like it. But also very easy and simple stuff (just a bird or an apple on a fabric)

I don't like pastel colours, or black.

In oktober 2010 I started to make my first quilt. I hope once, it will be ready. It's just for my love of bright collours and making something special.

Making bags is also a thing which I like. Especially handbags (totebag, buttercup-bag from Rae, see my blog) It's the fabric I love, than I decide what to make. And making applications with vliesofix, to pimp t-shirts for my children.

What I also like pieces of ribbon Felt Big buttons whool

Re-introducing swap-bot to myself, because I missed the inspiration from others!!!

2 years ago, I wrote: Since a year, I am a swap partner at Swap bot. Sometimes I think about quiting, but I like the little projects, finished in one evening and there's an other quite card from my hand. And I like your comment and reactions, and sometimes we keep in touch.

Now, I am totally mad about the posibilities of felt (wet, with water and soap)
