Orbit the dragon with wings
A while back I crocheted Orbit the dragon from the free pattern by Projectarian. Initially I wanted to combine the dragon’s cute ears with the wings available in the expansion pack, but I eventually decided against it. However, I did decide that I would one day crochet the expansion pack dragon with wings. It took me quite a while, but…

Reading journal June 2023
For my June reading journal theme, I opted for a softer, more romantic style, again inspired by some images from Pinterest. Or no, actually, the idea mainly came about while I was browsing for some fonts I could imitate by hand. This was when I came across one incorporating flowers. From this idea, the whole layout came together, using the…

Retro culottes
This one was finished a while ago, but – you guesses it – I forgot to blog about it 😅. When I had guests over during the spring holiday, we also played and pottered around in the attic for a while. Among other things in my large stash of fabrics. The following one was singled out: “Ooh!!”, one of my…

Unboxing Secret Project #2
I got this box already a while ago, almost three months ago by now, but I neglected writing about it, despite me diligently photographing the unboxing. Yeah, when I’m in a procrastination mood, I don’t do it half heartedly, lol. Which means you’ve got some unboxing posts to look forward to, starting with this Secret Project #2. I posted my…

Genre blanket 2022: December
Yes! It’s finally done! The last stripes of my genre blanket have been crocheted!! I am so happy with the result! In December I read 9 more books across 5 different genres. This time I also read the same genre twice in a row, so that the blanket got two same coloured stripes one after the other. December genres 1.…

Reading journal May 2023
Yes, if I’m a little behind with onething, then it’s easy to fall behind with something else, such as my reading journal. Although I did finish my title page in time for May, writing the reviews took a bit longer than usual, mainly because I wasn’t really super enthusiastic about a number of the books read. But the title page…

Read in June 2023
Phew, we’re already August, but I still haven’t written about the books I read in June! To be honest, I’ve neglected writing reviews lately and once I fall behind, it’s hard to catch back up, given that time doesn’t stand still, of course. But also, June was a really bad reading month and most of my notes on the books…

Genre blanket 2022: November
Some great progress! Another month finished, not even a week after I finished October! Granted, November was a fairly light reading month compared to other months, with only 7 books read, but still! And yes, it took me another week before I got to writing this blog, lol. November genres 1. Sci-Fi 2. Horror 3. Horror 4. Graphic Novel 5.…

Reading journal April 2023
April was the month of the magical readathon and as always, this also features prominently in my reading journal. This time, instead of doing my monthly spread first, I decided to do a sort of recap of my journey in the readathon so far. The plan is that I will make a similar page at the very front for my…

Read in May 2023
May was a bit of a colourless reading month. I was not very lucky with the books I chose. Even though I read a few good books, the feeling of reluctance and antipathy prevailed. In total, I read 8 books in May, amounting to 2494 pages, significantly less than any previous month of this year. The average May book comes…
