The other day visiting my dear friend JULIA http://vintagewithlaces.blogspot.dk/
I was so inspired seing her very beautiful pumpkin, so I had to make a few
myself. I used old wollen sweaters ,some old laces , and a hand turned
wollen rose on each of them.
I love my old and chippy table as background !
The images I used are many years old,-from Victorian-Vintage .blogspot.com
I can`t find their Etsy !!!!!
A little fall tag using my handmade leafe stamp !!
And from a recent walk at the beach, I saw many yards of this
pinkish sea-weed !!
Dosen`t it look amazing... Also last year I saw this sight-and collected
a few pieces to play with !! Such a fantastic colour in nature!!!
*****************
I want to welcome new followers, thank you so much for being here
to visit.... many of you have no blog reference ,so I have
difficulty in finding you !!
********************
To all and everyone of you dear blogging friends, I wish you
a lovely sunday- I hope you are all well,
and feeling fine weather you welcome fall or spring!!!
Love and hugs
Dorthe

The small pumpkins are totally adorable, dear Dorthe! Also the tag with the autumn leaves and the Paper Whimsy girl is so gorgeous. I would love to walk on the beach with you and enjoy the wonderful impressions live:-) Have a nice Sunday, my dear.

Oh Dorthe, your pumpkins are so sweet and they do show beautifully on your chippy table.
en-JOY a lovely Sunday,
Kimberly
Your pumpkins are so beautifully made with the lace and vintage images, great autum tag and the sea weed looks lovely, men er det ikke lidt lyserød, du må have en dejlig søndag, vi snakkes ved.
Hugs Anni
Hello dear Dorthe
I'm in love with your pumpkins - they are so beautiful. A lovely idea for autumn decorating!
Pink seaweed - how lovely - I would be collecting it to, but I would dry it and then dig it into my garden!!!
I'll wait to see what YOU do with it dear Dorthe.
Enjoy your Sunday and the new week ahead.
Much love and hugs

Fabulous tiny pumpkins. The sweaters worked out beautifully....so charming Dorthe! xox
Сладки, сладки малки тикви Дороти! Много харесвам ръчно направени тикви. Лятото почти си замина и вече и аз мисля за есенна декорация.
Толкова е хубаво, че живееш край океана и можеш да си събираш материали като тези красиви розови водорасли.
Поздрави и прегръдки от мен.
årh hvor er de søde dine små græskar og de er jo lige til årstiden, snart kommer efteråret.
lyserød tang ! det har jeg aldrig set..kan man mon bruge det kreativt "big smile"
Dorthe, your pumpkins are perfect! I love that you added the images on yours.
Have a wonderful day!!!
I love sweater pumpkins and yours are especially gorgeous, dearest Dorthe. The colors are very pretty and the embellishments are beautiful.
The fall tag is so lovely as well. Your handmade leaf stamp turned out wonderful.
Have a cozy evening, sweetie!
Big hugs og mange kys,
Julia

Kære ven, hvor er de fantastiske!!! I min kolonihavehus vokser fine græskar - frø fra dig, kære ven.
Og.... Glæder mig til i morgen - tak for hurtigt postbudsbesøg, det må vi gøre længere næste gang - god aften til dig!!!
I love your interpretation of pumpkins using the old sweaters and images, they are gorgeous. I love your new leaf stamp it is coming in handy for lots of things Dorthe. Jayne x
I was never soooo much into pumpkins, dear Dorthe, but seeing your vintage style ones convinces me! They are beautiful, even more so knowing they are made of recycled material. I love the vintage images and the muted colours and feel the urge now, to try and make one myself. Thanks for this sweet inspiration!
Greets, Manu

Ååå, så nydelige gresskar, kjære Dorthe.
God klem fra meg
What beautiful creations you made Dorthe! The pumpkins are lovely, I too would like to try some. Hope you too had a relaxing Sunday.
Hello Dorthe,
I have missed visiting you! I am back from my month off the computer and had to stop by and see what you have been creating. The pumpkins are wonderful! Really, old sweaters??? Wow! You have done a beautiful job on them.
Pinkish seaweed??? Wonderful find! Will you dry it and use it in your creations?
Hugs,
Terri

How sweet the little pumpkins are and a good way to use unwanted woolen jerseys.
Also love the pretty autumn tag.
Wishing you a happy new week

The pumpkins are absolutely gorgeous, dear Dorthe, the sweater fabric looks so soft and I love the colours. I might have to try and make a pumpkin as well when we get back to the UK. Pink seaweed, how wonderful is that! Never seen pink seaweed on our beach. I'd love to see what you use it for. xxx
Your pumpkins look so cute and beautiful!!! You inspired me so as well, I just have to do one of my own too :-)) I have collected also craft material on my walking trips in forest, but I can never find such treasures like yours on your own beach. That seaweed looks amazing!
Happy September dear Dorthe!
Deine und Julias Kürbisse sind wirklich zu süß Dorthe. Ganz ganz toll!
Ich wünsche dir eine schöne Woche meine Liebe.
Hugs und knuddel

Good evening Dear Dorthe!
Oh those pumpkins are the sweetest softest squishy dreamy pumpkins I have seen! and the colors and embellishments with the sweet images are so beautiful!
Bettina will be thrilled with them!
They are becoming so very popular and I love seeing all the different versions!
What a beautiful leaf stamp you have created. Ah! a girl full of endless talent!
That is a most unusual shade of pink seaweed too. I know you will work some magic with that too!
It is a beautiful calm and sunny morning here with peace all around now after such a "stormy" weekend. Andrea
is soooo much better now - amazing!!!
My love carries these words to a far away land where Autumn and wind are now arriving!
Loving thoughts and hugs,

Dorthe, I came to know your blog from visiting Dawn, from the Feathered Nest. I enjoyed seeing your gift to her...magnificent, I must say, and what was in it attracted me to your post this morning. I've read a few of your posts and it looks like I will enjoy seeing what you do also. A lovely day to you! pat
Aww, such sweet pumpkins, Dorthe!
I wonder if you could dye with that pink seaweed? Love the pumpkins, I am happy fall is almost here!

Hi Dorthe, Oh my~~ have I told you how much you inspire me? Well I am telling you again!! I love the pumpkins and everything you create is stunning. The tag is darling too. Such talent!!
Thank you for stopping by and your sweet comment. I am back from my time away and we had a wonderful trip for our anniversary too. So ready for fall now and a break from our extreme heat.
Wishing you a great rest of the week.

Hi Dorthe what a nice surprise hearing from you today. I wanted to email you back but you have a noreply email so I will be short. Hard to believe 4 months since my last post. Everything is fine here just taking a break from a busy spring and summer.
Hope your summer was a good one my friend.
big hugs

Hallo Dorthe,
ich liebe Deine Kürbisse. Einfach traumhaft schön!! Das tag ist auch supi. Der Herbst kann kommen. Aber im Moment sieht es ja nicht danach aus, hier ist Bilderbuchwetter. Ganz schön heiss!Hoffe, Ihr habt auch so tolles Wetter?
Ganz liebe Grüsse, Viola :)
Your pumpkins are so lovely, Dorthe...I just love them! Thank you so much for your sweet comments on my wedding post today!
Those little pumpkins are absolutely enchanting, Dorthe - and I love that they are in such pretty neutrals, rather than bright orange (not my favourite colour!!). Wonderful tag with your amazing homemade stamp too.
That seaweed is extraordinary - there must be a crafty use for that!
Alison xx
The seaweed is so cool Dorthe! What a great color it is.
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, your pumpkins! They are so beautiful my friend...but everything you make is :) Your photos are beautiful!
hugs from me...
So wunderschöne Kürbisse hast Du geemacht, liebe Dorthe! Die sind so richtig zum Verlieben :)
Vielen lieben Dank for your comments on my Posts, dear friend. Time is running so fast and as I wrote in my post today, time is so hurry and I love to spend each free Minute in my garden or Walking with our dog or being with Uwe my hubby :)
It was/ it is is a good time in these days. Uwe is working at home and so sind die Tage noch ein Mal anders. Du kennst das ja sicher, liebste Dorthe.
Ich wünsche Dir herrliche Tage an Deiner schönen Küste, mit herrlichem Licht und und einer sanften Brise. Viele liebe Grüße und Küsse schicke ich Dir und umarme Dich - Deine Freundin Erika
Kære Dorthe.
Tak for din hilsen!
Jeg vil helt sikkert blive ved med at kigge forbi, men som det nu allerede har været tilfældet i nogle måneder, så sker det måske lidt mere sjældent end tidligere. Det er bare som om, at jeg har så meget andet om ørerne, at det går ud over bloggen.
Men dine smukke kreationer bliver ved med at imponere mig. Det samme gør tingene af de kvinder, som sender dig små hilsner og gaver.
Selvom du arbejder med nogle lidt andre materialer, end hvad jeg gør i, så forstår du virkelig at kombinere forskellige materialer, som giver spændende udtryk.
Jeg håber, du får en god ny uge.
Knus,
Emilie
Thank you Sweetheart, you are always so encouraging... such a gift you have.
I love that pink seaweed! Wish I could walk on the beach and glean. My son bought a huge vintage shell collection from a flea market and gave them to me so I have been putting Shell studies together and making bottles also.
I love your pumpkins, I need to start making some for the show but I have been having too much fun with the shells :)
Blessings to you

Det er nogle fantastisk flotte græskar, du har lavet!!!!!
Your pumpkins are beautiful Dorthe! I also love your weathered table for a backdrop - it shows them off so perfectly.
Beautiful pictures, and beautiful creations...
Dorthe your sweater pumpkins are gorgeous! I love the white and cream sweaters-- they are just so perfect for your fall decorating. This makes me want to rummage through my old sweaters!!!
Love
Vicki
LOVE your pumpkins!!!!
Hugs Lynn
Hello, dear sweet Dorthe
I have known you since the Cloth and Clay Doll ning site began in the fall of 2008, and I have followed your doll making progress and have always been inspired by the lovely dolls and lacy items you have created.
I am now at 'the trodden path' still in the Cloth and Clay doll group. I could never give it up as so many wonderful friends are there who I have know for going on five years! I love the kindred spirit connections around the world that we have made.
