Father Christmas had brought me a chocolate goose game I can't wait to play-eat" the next time we'll have our grandchildren for holidays. I often showed my cross stitched goose game, it's a free pattern I started long ago. 

I decided to give different designs in the squares to make them more personnalized with my hobbies. So I already stitched about gardening, writing, painting, sewing... sometimes I chose to adapt small patterns after checking they are ok with the frame of the square.

Sheryl who sew after seven,  also read magazines and have found some lovely game patterns very inspiring she was kind enough to send me.

Great fan of maps and world globe I found the theme of the square n° 39 a very good idea and adapted it for my own frame. I have selected the sailboat too.

I started with the boat and I'm pleased with the result.

Voici la carte d'anniversaire envoyée à Roselyne, réalisée d'après une carte d'Alice Gerfault.

Aquarelle et dessins floraux au feutre avec une touche de finition faite avec les pearlcolors dorés de chez Coliro.

I found in Alice Gerfault work inspiration for this birthday card I send to a good friend.

Watercolor and floral designs with a final touch of gold watercolor.

After making knackis with the clothes line, felt salmon and ham, I have some progress on the tiny groceries for the Violette (s) dolls.

Some paper towels, potatoes chips and French fries, coffee bags, rice, more salads, pizzas, 

With a chocolate box I thought I might make a little shop for Soline. First and easiest thing to do : eat the chocolates... then search in scrapbooking cardboards a lovely design to make some shelves and stick them into the box. Add a handle made with a cord to help her open the box.

With a cork of a wine bottle I thought of making a tiny pineapple with green and yellow felt.

Now the shelves are well filled with magazines and groceries.
