I have the best Sister. I know, you all have great ones and such, but I have the best. She's the baby-one too (only thirty-something, that's nothing, really), quite a few years younger than me (read: five), and She also has a birthday in March. She got the usual "I choose my presents myself so I'll end up having what I really want"-Moomins (from that special Tove Jansson 100years-series):
And as usual, there were some special treats made by me also. We have a really similar taste in clothes&accessories, but She really loves tapestry bags; I think She got the bug in 90s and never really recovered. I know her tapestry-condition only so well, and I have made her a quite a few bags over the years. This birthday didn't make the exception except the bag is bigger than ever:
and there's a matching scarf too:
Oh my, She'll be ever so ready for the spring, don't you think?
And that bag should take in everything and some - the older a lady gets, the bigger the bag (sorry, Sis)!
Happy Birthday, dear Sis!

Lovely Monday to you all!
Yours,
Mia

Happy birthday to your dearest Sis Mia. March is such a popular month for birthdays...Milly's in on Thursday and my brother on Saturday ;0) What a gorgeous bag and scarf you made her. Enjoy the celebrations xx
Lovely gifts and Happy birthday to your sister. I'd have to argue with the best sister ever, mine is pretty good too :) Bethx
PS the BBC had an article on the 100 years of Moomins and I thought of you!
Hi MIa, thanks for updating!
How good you have a super sister, unfortunately I have only 2 brothers.
Well, great birthday to your sister and congratulations for the bag and scarf you made to her. Very beautiful.
Thanks again and a great week to you.
Hello Anne,

Hello Jane,
I think March being popular birthday-month has something to do with our sunny, long and hot midsummer-nights ;) Happy birthday to Milly&your brother, happy celebrating!
Lovely March week!

Mia

Hello Lucia,
Brothers must be great too, I always wished for a big-brother, but there were "just" two of us.
Have wonderful week!
Yours,
Mia
Hello Helen,
Thank you, my Sis liked her presents too! I am so so excited of those embellishments, it seems that I have found knitting (without felting) all over again :) I'm sure well see much more of them later!
Have a wonderful, sunny week!

Mia
Hello Teje,
These mugs have been really popular here, they were sold out in many places in the first weeks! And there are so many more things to this series: oven mittens, aprons, cards... All very pretty!
Have a lovely week!
Yours,
Mia
Hello Vivienne,
We seem to have quite a few conditions (my matchy-matchy etc.), but luckily we know them well :)
I already said to Lucia earlier that (a big) brother was on my wish list for a long time, so lucky you to have one!
Sunny and bunny-filled week!
Yours,
Mia
Hello Megumi,

These mugs seems to be very much liked, I wish they could be bought everywhere!
Have a wonderful week, sunshine from here!
