Werken als freelancer en heeft onnoemelijk veel voordelen. Niet gegijzeld worden op een kantoor, van negen tot vijf, is volgens mij de belangrijkste. Het is heerlijk om je dag in te delen zoals je het zelf wilt. Meestal werk ik in mijn up, vanuit thuis en dat bevalt prima. Maar vandaag, na een doorwaakt nachtje en kil, grauw licht buiten moet ik eerlijk bekennen: vandaag had ik graag de gezelligheid van een redactie om me heen gehad in plaats van mijn eigen sombere gedachtes en de administratieve klusjes die op me lagen te wachten. Working as a freelance journalist and editor has many advantages. Not being held hostage in an office from 9 to 5 is one of the biggest advantages, I find. I can work whenever I want, whenever I feel inspired and most of the days, that works perfectly. But on a grey day like this one, after I hardly slept all night, it would've been great to have the coziness of an edting floor around me instead of my depressing thoughts, the cold weather outside and some administrative tasks that are waiting for me. Normaal gesproken val ik jullie niet lastig met het wel en wee van freelancen (want ja, tis ook gewoon werk), maar vandaag klets ik graag even tegen jullie aan, zoals ik dat op kantoor zou doen. Hoe was jullie weekend? Nog leuke dingen gedaan? Een drukke week voor de boeg? Nog sappige kantoorroddels? Wat maken jullie op dit moment? Welk boek lees je nu? Normally I don't bother you guys with my freelance everyday business (I mean, it's just another job right?), but today I'd love to have a chat with you all, like I would with colleagues in an office. So tell me, how was your weekend? Did you get upto anything good? Do you have a busy day ahead of you? Any juicy office gossip you'd like to share with me? What are you crafting? What are you reading? Wat me vandaag opvrolijkte was het boek 'Birds' van Mollie Makes. Zoals jullie weten ben ik een enorm fan van het Engelse blad. Onlangs maakte ik al deze vogel uit het blad en in dit boek staan nog leukere exemplaren. Het vogelkussen hierboven is trouwens mijn absolute favoriet en ga ik binnenkort absoluut maken! What brightened up my day was the book 'Birds' by Mollie Makes. As you probbaly now, I am conpletely smitten by this magazine (and yes, I would love to write features and interviews for them, in case you were wondering... please call me editing team, ha!). Recently I made the bird from one of the last issues of Mollie Makes and the book contains even greater ideas, bird-wise. The bird-pillow on top of the page is definately my favorite btw. I just have to go and make it, soon. En het leuke is, het maakt dus ook helemaal niet uit of je graag haakt, naait of borduurt. Ook al kun je maar één van die disciplines een heel klein beetje, dan nog kun je best veel uit het boek maken. En de illustraties zijn om op te vreten. And the good thing is that it doesn't matter if you'd like to crochet, sew or embroider. If you know, if only a tiny bit about one of the crafting disciplines, you can easily do quite a lot of projects from the book. And I just love how it's illustrated. De stap voor stap beschrijvingen zijn ook heel handig, maar zoals je ziet hoef je geen hogere wiskunde te doen om één van de projecten te maken. Deze lezende uilen zijn trouwens wel erg schattig. Wijs en met een boekje. The step by step tutorials make it very easy to finish a craft project, but as you can see from this picture: it's not like you need a degree in maths to succeed. I do love these wise, reading little owls. Ik vond deze cover voor een cafetière ook schitterend en de bijpassende onderzetters zijn ook fantastisch! Het lijkt me een heel werk met al dat vilt, maar het heeft wel wat: folky happiness ofzo. Mochten jullie ook zin hebben om te gaan vogelen (altijd grinniken om je eigen flauwe grappen!), dan kun je het boek onder andere hier kopen. Hebben jullie pas nog leuke DIY en craft boeken in handen gekregen? Tips zijn altijd welkom. And I really loved the cosy for the coffee maker with matching coasters, don't they look smashing. It seems like a lot of work woth all those felt pieces, but it's just so nice. Very folky and happy. So, any good craft books you read recently?

Juliette & her partner recently rescued a wild Magpie bird named Molly. Unfortunately, the poor creature was covered in grass. So, the couple decided to bring her home as she was frail and tired. However, their pet Pitbull, Peggy, did not want to go anywhere near the bird as she was scared of her. Juliette

I started making birds way back at the end of 2007. I made more. Then I started selling them on eBay. Then Pokey Bolton asked me to submit an article and pattern for a Quilting Arts special magazine called Quilt Festival Quilt Scene. Then she asked me to tape a segment for Quilting Arts TV and show how they are made. The pattern is still up on the Quilting Arts TV web site here, and apparently people are still making them. Here is how they looked in Quilting Arts magazine. I run across them every so often on the web and it always makes me so happy to see that someone else has made one of the birds. I started a Pinterest board of the ones I have found. This morning a friend directed me to the FaceBook page of a woman in England named Angie Hughes, who had posted this photo. Yes, they are birds made from my pattern. Ms. Hughes, it seems, teaches workshops at a local shop on making the birds and these were the latest flock. Cute. I was surprised. I didn't know about all this. Although the pattern has been published, it clearly states that the pattern may be reproduced for personal use. Reproducing for sale for workshops is not personal use, but this was not what really surprised me the most. What really surprised and disappointed me was that nowhere that I found Angie Hughes versions of the birds—not on the FaceBook page, not on her own web site, not on the shop web site where the class was listed, was there any credit given to me as the designer. My name appeared nowhere. I'm not going to get into the issues of copyright violation, though there is that (she is also selling the birds on her blog and web site). This happens and it is hard to stop and, honestly, I'm not interested in tracking down and punishing anyone doing that. I simply think that when the pattern is used in a public way and/or published on Facebook, blog, web site, etc. that the considerate, honest thing to do is to give credit to the designer. So, I am not angry, but I am disappointed that this person is representing this design as her own, if not by actually claiming it to be, at least by failing to give proper credit and letting people assume it is her original design. Though the bird pattern looks simple, I put a lot into its design. I made dozens of birds until I got the design the way I wanted it to be. I drafted the pattern and wrote the directions and I am thrilled that people like it. I'm proud of it. Maybe you can understand why I want credit for it, or maybe you think I should just be flattered that somebody likes it that much. By and large the fiber art online community are incredibly generous with their ideas, their techniques, their sources and their "trade secrets." I like that and I have tried to give back as much as I have gotten. The other side of that coin is acknowledging and giving credit and appreciation to the people who share their gifts and their work. Maybe Angie Hughes just forgot. I'd like to think that's the case.
