E estas foram as coisas que recebi!!! Quase desmaiei de contentamento! Muito obrigada, Willow Tree!
And these were the things I got!!! Almost fainted of happiness! Thank You very much, Willow tree!

spring / primavera
Este ano a primavera chegou mais cedo! Chove mas já há muitas flores abertas no campo. Eu tenho uma no lápis que decidiu dar flor! E vós? Como chega a primavera à vossa casa? Mostrem-me.
This year Spring arrived earlier! It rains but there are plenty of flowers in the fields. I've got a pencil that decided to bloom! And you? How does Spring arrive at your home? Show me.

knitting doll / tricotin
Answering Faz de Conta's question, this is a knitting doll.
E isto é o que um tricotin faz! E o que fazer com isto? É aqui que entra a imaginação! Este quase que dava para escrever "olá".
And this is what a knitting doll does! And what to do with it? Here is where imagination takes its place! I could almost write "olá" (hi, in Portuguese)

need to draw / necessidade de desenhar
On the other day I felt the need to draw, so I bought paper and felt tip pens. Decided o draw a cat enjoying the sun, a thing they love doing (mine do!). Decided to call it "solar collector".

my sewing machine / minha máquina de costura
Bought it about a month ago but only now started to work with it. I don't know how to sew but decided to learn it by myself... Wanted to make a birthday present for a friend... a coin purse! I thought: "A small thing is easy!" Ha ha, how naive! Started making plans about how to do it, cut the parts and joined them. Result: waste of thread, forgot to sew a part and this was what came out:
Desculpa, Ana Teresa mas não vais receber esta minha obra de arte! Eu mesma vou andar com ela para me lembrar que tenho ainda muito que aprender! Em breve o resultado final!
Sorry, Ana Teresa but you won't get this piece of art of mine! I will use it myself to remind me that there is plenty to learn! Soon the final result!

good feeling / boas sensações
Yesterday I had 2 sweet things in my mail box:
From Hope (USA) I got a tea with a wonderful scent and several pages of an article about mothers and daughters, which I'll read with a lot of attention while drinking the tea!
From Wee Wonderfuls a postcard wishing a good 2007 (never thought I would get one). It's so sweet. And where shall I put it now? I want to see it everyday and smile, which is what he makes me to do every time I look at him!!

soon / breve
As only Marina and Futuregirl wanted to get 1 bookmark made by me, I decided to make 2 for each one! Soon they'll be with their owners! Hope you like them!

bookmarks swap / troca de marcadores
These were the bookmarks I made. All of them were laminated. Each one got one with their name and another with what I knew about them, these last ones have glitter but it can't be seen in the pictures. I hope they like them!
Jennifer is from the USA and the only thing I knew was that she did crocheting and knitting. I was afraid that she wouldn't like the one about knitting so I decided to make her one without a theme.

macati "business card" / Hamburg Deutschland
Bookmarks are ready and almost prepared for the voyage. Soon the pictures! Never thought that it's so difficult to do something for a person we don't know. There is always the question: did he/she like it? Tried to do something about what they like and honestly I now think that I should have done the things differently... but time passes by and there is a dead line! Decided to add a "business card" on the back of the bookmark! Yes, another person who likes cats... but I like other animals too...
Já recebi 2 marcadores da troca e vieram da Alemanha. Ela enviou-me estes autocolantes queridos. Na próxima semana eu mostro-vos os marcadores que recebi e que enviei. Não há mais ninguém interessado em receber marcadores feitos por mim? (além da Futuregirl!)... Têm até 22 de Janeiro para inscrever. Depois digo quem venceu! (juntamente com os marcadores vou enviar alguns extras!)
I already got 2 bookmarks from the swap and they came from Germany. She sent me these cute stickers. Next week, I'll show you the bookmarks I got and the ones I sent . Is there no one else interested in getting 2 bookmarks of mine? (besides Futuregirl!)... you have until the 22nd of January to participate. Then I'll tell you who the winner is! (together with the bookmarks I'll send some extras!)

scarf / cachecol
Mina ordered me this scarf but didn't know what colour it was! Now she knows because it's already warming her neck! My little devil almost convinced me to keep it! He he he!
