Postcards from My Little Crowd© : CHANGE, #8

....After a long while, a new postcard for you all!!!

I had in mind this special person since the beginning of the year, but I started to crochet him only a couple of days ago ...

... I was too scared to make him ridiculous and it was not my intention, but the design for My Little Crowd is intended to be naïve, so here what I made :

more details ...

... and the postcard I'm sending to you ...

... that matches perfectly another quote from the Mahatma "In a gentle way, you can shake the world".

Postcards from My Little Crowd© : WOMEN's DAY, #7

Happy Women's Day to you all !!!

Yesterday I was busy in crocheting a new figure for My Little Crowd and this is what I came out with ...

She wears a big smile and a nice bow on an extravagant hairdo ...

... and she holds the classic symbols for our day .... in Italy we use to gift the mimosa flowers on this special day ....

The pattern for the mimosa flower was found HERE : grazie mille Gaia !!!

She is almost ready ...

.... to deliver an important message ...

Enjoy OUR DAY !!!!

Postcards from My Little Crowd© : LOVE, #6

It has been a while since my last postcard (here) , so thankfully to Valentine's Day, I have a good excuse to send you a new one ...

... and this sweet girl is really eager to spread the love, even her own hair has the shape (top part) of mini hearts ...

.... and the bunting or even the pink heart on her dress are really good to underline her love wish ...

I think that Albert Camus was right when saying " I know of one duty, and that is to love", but to love others you have first to love yourself ....

Love yourself and the rest will follow !! Happy Valentine's Day to you all !!!

Postcards from My Little Crowd© : WORLD AIDS DAY, #3

Sorry for posting this message a day later, but I had some problems with my laptop ...

.... the postcard is ready to be read ....

I would love to add even this quote

"HIV does not make people dangerous to know, so you can shake their hands and give them a hug : Heaven knows they need it."   Princess Diana

Postcards from My Little Crowd© : PEACE, #1

I had this idea, while crocheting a bunch of little people, inspired by some of my drawings of my primary school period …

… I could match one of them with the right quote, so that I may send to you all a thoughtful postcard from time to time, like the following one …

Do you like this idea ?????
I find it just right !!!! ;oD
