Yesterday yet another inspiring, pleasant and sunny day with Emmy and Willy. When you put us together for a week we are still chatting! Our projects with the theme ‘Mother; where ready. With a surprising and diverse result.
Centraal in het werkstuk van Emmy zijn cirkels, een voor elk van haar kinderen. De cirkels zitten vast aan een moeder-cirkel. Deze verbinding staat voor de lange en lastige weg van een moeder om kinderen te laten opgroeien en voor het moeilijk los kunnen laten van haar kinderen. Natuurlijk heeft Emmy zich weer flink uitgeleefd met prachtig borduurwerk.
Centrally situated in Emmy’s project where circles, one for each of her three children.
The circles are connected to a mother-circles. This connection represents the long and hard way for a mother to raise her children and the difficulties in letting go. Of course Emmy made some beautiful embroidery on it.

In Willly’s project the connection between mother and daughter is the key. The dark side on the left represents things happened in the past and all the hearts stand for the unconditional love of a mother. The hands symbolize helping each other, be helped and accept aid.

In closing my own project. The process of making it was already on my weblog but now it’s finished. Central in my project is my multiple disabled daughter. She’s got a progressive disease so she casts a shadow to what should have been a sunny feature. The butterflies represent my three children. The biggest one, the pink one, is still near home, represented by the roses, my favourite flower. The other blue ones representing my sons. They already fly a bit on their own an going further from home. Every now and then they are tangled up in everything around their sister, so they are symbolically tangled in her hair.

Ondertussen heeft Willy nagedacht over een nieuw thema ‘ Een dierbaar stuk speelgoed’ is het geworden.
The three of us concerned it a spicy project, it stirred up emotions and gave us food for thought.
In the mean time Willy thought about a new theme, it's ' a precious toy'.
