In mijn kindertijd werden de koeien bij mijn Opa op de boerderij vernoemd naar ons, zijn kleinkinderen. Een koe heette dan ook: Ilona en nee, ik ben niet roodharig ;)!
Nog steeds heb ik iets met roodbonte koeien, ik zie ze vaak op mijn wandelingen langs de weilanden hier op het platteland. Inmiddels heb ik ook een miniatuur koe, zoals jullie waarschijnlijk wel zullen weten. Mijn roodbontje is een schitterend kunstwerk, gemaakt door Patricia van www.woolytales.blogspot.com
In my childhood the cows on the farm of my grandfather were named after us, his grandchildren. One cow also was called: Ilona and no, I am not red haired ;)!
I still have something with red and white cows, I often see them on my walkings along the meadows here in the country. In the meanwhile I also have a miniature cow, as you probably will know. This darling cow is a magnificent artwork, she is made by Patricia of www.woolytales.blogspot.com

Echte melkkoeien moeten gemolken worden, natuurlijk! Vorig
najaar had ik voor Patricia al een miniatuur melkmachine gemaakt en in november
kreeg ik de vraag van een volger van mijn blog of ik nog eens een melkmachine
kon maken. Maar aangezien ik van elk miniatuur er maar eentje maak, moest ik
een nieuw type zien “uit te dokteren”. Dat was nog niet zo eenvoudig, omdat een
aantal onderdelen hetzelfde moeten zijn (anders kun je er natuurlijk niet mee
melken, hè ;)?), maar het lukte me om de rest verschillend van mijn eerste
melkmachine te maken.
In real life milkcows have to be milked, of course! Last
autumn I had made a miniature milking machine for Patricia and in november I
got a question of a follower of my blog, if I could make her one too. But since
I make one of a kind miniatures, I had to “invent” another type of milking
machine. This was not so simple to do, because a few parts had to be the same
(otherwise you can’t milk, huh ;)?), but I managed to make the rest of the
machine different as my first milking machine.

Ik heb eens goed op het blog van mijn volger gekeken en zag
dat ze bezig was met het "verweerd" maken van haar miniaturen voor haar project,
dus heb ik dat ook met dit machientje gedaan :D! De afmetingen van het hele
apparaatje zijn: 8 cm hoog x 9 cm lang x 4,5 cm breed.
I took a good look at the blog of my follower and saw she
was busy with "weathering" her miniatures for her project, so I have weathered this miniature machine too :D! The sizes of the entire machine are: 8 cm heigth x 9 cm
length x 4,5 cm width.
So this milking machine has been sold, from now on I have to milk again my own miniature cow by hand ;)!!
Ik wil al mijn volgers bedanken voor hun fijne reacties op
mijn berichten! De miniaturen blogwereld is een fantastische plaats om vriendschap
en onze creativiteit te kunnen delen met elkaar!
Een warm welkom aan mijn nieuwe volgers!
To all my followers, I want to thank you for your kind
comments on my posts! The miniature blogworld is a great place to
share friendship and our creativity!
A warm welcome to my new followers!

I love your weathered milking machine, you have done a wonderful job!
Mmh, I think your own cow prefers that you milk her by hand in any case, after all, isn't she a bit like a pet ;-)
Hey Ilona, mag ik vragen hoe je de roestplek hebt gemaakt? gr. AM
It is amazing all you can do Ilona. A milking machine. I have never seen in miniature before, and it's the second time you make one. Impressive. So fine with wire, etc. It is so well done. I am speechless. Beautiful made.

o dear me...what else will you do????? amazing work!!!
After this wonderful device I believe there is nothing you will not be able to produce in miniature. What a fabulous job! I also love your beautiful cow.
Hugs, Drora
Oh WOW! Ilona! Fantastic! I wonder if there is anything you can't do in miniature? ;D

Hallo Ilona,
Wat een prachtige melkmachine heb je gemaakt. Wat zal de opdrachtgeefster daar blij mee zijn.
Groetjes Xandra
Dear Ilona,
What a wonderful milking machine.
You did a great job "weathering" the machine. I feel free to ask you how you weathered it.
Hugs Dorien
¡Hola Ilona! Es un trabajo sensacional, nunca había visto parece en miniatura. Es sorprendente todo lo que se puede aprender en tu blog.
¡Un besazo enorme!
I do love unusual miniatures like this. Great work Ilona =0)
Hi Ilona!
I´m always a little excited, when I see that there´s a new post from you! Your second milk machine is gorgeous again, I like the aging very much!
When I was a teenage girl I was quite upset when I found out that my favorite aunt had a cow called "Sandra" in her stable. She told me that this was her favorite cow :-)
She still is my favorite auntie, but now I wonder: did you give your cow a name, too?
Greetings, from cold and snowy Bavaria! Hugs, Sandra
Dearie, you should be nicknamed Ileonardo! A mean milking machine??!!! What will you think of next? An Egg Picking Machine that can also fry your eggs in 8 styles? :):)
You are awesome, Ilona :) and I like your grandpa.
So was Ilona a good cow? teehehehehe..sorry, had to do that :).
Your milking machine is fantastic! Original miniature.
Bye Faby
holy cow!!! (hee hee). seriously- I am in awe. Your fingers are magic- this looks like it has been lovingly used by a farmer for years. Amazing work Ilona ♥
Wow! I have never seen real milking machine, but I'm sure it looks like this;) and the beautiful cow...Great job Ilona and Patricia!!
Ilona, you are AMAZING!!! Your attention to detail and your ability to create in miniature the most Diverse and Fantastic things is unparallelled!!! We had cows when I was a teenager and I learned to milk by hand... no machines! Cows still have a warm place in my heart.. they are such loving and generous and sweet creatures!!! I don't know how you manage to invent your perfect miniatures!!! This milk machine is Awesome!!! Even the coiled electrical wire!!!
Wow Ilona your milking machine is amazing I love how you aged it. You are so very talented. It is always such a pleasure and so interesting to visit your blog :)
Hugs Maria
Another amazing job, Ilona! I love how you aged the milking machine and your photos too. I so agree with you--the blog world is a great place to make friends and share our creativity. We are so lucky to have found it, aren't we? :-) xo Jennifer
Lieve Ilona, wat een ontzettend gave melkmachine, ongelooflijk, zo klein en zo perfect, daar zal ongetwijfeld
iemand heeeel blij mee zijn :)
Lieve groetjes Mieke
Noone who would just look at the last pictures (without the cow and the match... *grin*) would ever think he's looking at a miniature. It's incredibly well done, okay, I can say that about everything you do, but the realism of this one including the aging is breathtaking. And it's always amazing that you can minimize everything and anything. I know what I'm talking about - I'm the proud owner of the most realistic beehive in miniature made by a wonderful friend. And I like Sans! newest invention - Ileonardo... ;O)

Hi, Ilona!
You made an amazing miniature. You must be not only an artist but also an engineer. The cow is so beautiful.

Hi Ilona,
This machine is perfect!
Congratulations.

Wooo , es fantástica, que maravilla, mi felicitación :)
wat een mooie koe.
Ze ziet er uit als echt.
Maar de melkmachiene die slaat echt alles.
Wat jou ogen zien kunnen jou handen maken.
Lieve groet,Alexandra.
La ordeñadora es fantástica y muy original, es un trabajo excepcional.
Un abrazo
Super melkmachien weer, Ilona!
ik heb dr wel geen verstand van maar het ziet eruit alsof je hiermee in een half uurtje
een hele stal melkt :)
Mooi gemaakt!
j'avais admiré cette superbe machine à traire sur le site de Patricia, je te fais et, ou refait tous mes compliments, car elle est vraiment époustouflante cette machine.
Bisous. rosethé

Wow what a machine , I am stunned!
Your weathered milking machine is gorgeous work of Art! I love it! I can almost hear the sound of it :)
