{My Green Sewing Creation}

  • Saint Patrick's Festival is a big event here in Dublin, Georgia and we have all month something going on and LOTS of green is being worn! 
  • Here I like to show you some OLD pictures from 1995 where we had plenty of narcissus blooming and also our fragrant Clematis Armandii vine was in full bloom. 
  • This year; none of these! Sad for having to miss them... Only the pictures of years where they were blooming can give us joy. 
  • Below you find a post about our fragrant 1916 heirloom Thalia narcissus as well as our Clematis Armandii vine with its Fragrant Blooms... It was a dream in 2011!

  • Here I am wearing a Burda Pattern Jacket - My Sewing Creation.
  • Skirt is Michael Kors
  • Silk blouse is Michael Kors
  • Shoes are patent leather from Bruno Magli from Saks Fifth Avenue OFF 5th Outlet.

  • Seen are also our fragrant 1916 heirloom Thalia - latest of our Daffodils but this year NONE of them bloomed...

  • We both are glad for having these photos with our favorite flowers!

How is your crop of spring flowers doing this year?

  6. Dearest Mariette,

    I love your jacket. It's perfect with your green shirt and skirt.

    The zeppolis are in all the bakeries, laced with Irish whisky. We had wonderful salmon smoked with whisky yesterday. Of course we have been eating corned beef.

  8. Liebe Mariette,
    das Ensemble, das du trägst ist wunderschön und passt gut zu dem Gelb der Narzissen. Ich mag die Farbe Grün, allerdings steht sie mir nicht.
    Deine Nähkünste sind bewunderungwürdig.
    Liebe Abendgrüße schickt dir
    Irmi

  11. Dear Mariette,

    You look fabulous in green and the perfect outfit for St Patrick's day.
    Sad that you will not be seeing any of the daffodils this year and must say how pretty your new header is with the pink magnolia.
    No spring flowers here, only leaves starting to drop off some of the trees, I noticed on my walk this morning. Autumn is coming here.

    Happy day
    hugs
    Carolyn

  14. What a nice spring outfit. You look lovely in green and, my I say, you have killer legs and look fantastic in shorter skirts.
