It’s been a while since I last wrote on my blog:) We have had a chance to leave with the caravan to Sundsvall in six days. We have shopped at IKEA, gone for a drive called the Coast road. A wonderful drive along the coast with many beautiful sights and old fishing sheds made to the summer house.


One day as we shopped, I found two jelly rolls for more than half the regular price, 98 skr instead of 329 skr skr. Now I have to come up and sew something of them
Last week I sewed pillowcases for a friend with a wonderful fabric from a company called Jobs. Fabrics are printed by an old edition (1945) Design by Joseph Frank..
I have also had time to quilt my quilt course, Crazy Among Friends, a pattern by Buggy Barn. I hope to take some pictures this weekend at the finished quilted top..
Have a nice weekend!

it’s really long time since I wrote on the blog : ( I have not the desire/time to blog or to sew. But this week I had the energy to picked up a quilt that has been finished for a very long time
It was sewing on a course for about 4 years ago . A course that my friend Stina had a few girls on. We learned sew patterns from the Buggy Barn. It was an interesting way to sew quilts. But now finally it´s time for me to quilt it so hopefully it will be completely finished before the end of this month

When Stina was here and had her show, she lived with me all week and it was so wonderful to have her at our home
When it was time for her to go home, I got such great gifts, among other things a small makeup bag, a cute little pincushion and a crocheted collar with flowers and leaves .. It is so nice to have ”home”-made gifts ..
Again a big Thank you Stina:)

Next week the whole family goes on a little vacation trip with the caravan. Where we are going it´s not fully determined but in any case is a goal to visit a quilt shop and of course, IKEA ..
Have a great time and see you again after the holidays!

Today my wonderful friend Stina open hers exhibition at Nordanå here in Skellefteå there I live.. Last night when I picked her up after she put everything in order. It was warm weather and the sun shone so nicely around the area where she has her exhibition.

Today when we woke up the rain pours down, and tonight’s weather is conspicuous by its absence. But since I got a glimpse of the show yesterday, it will still be a wonderful day for visitors who arrive there:)
This wonderful little quilt meets the visitors before they enter the showroom

and when I stand on my way in to the room I can see this lovely view…

This is a little sneak a peek view for you and I know Stina will update her blog later with more wonderful picture and I hope to take some more picture today when I arrived on the vernissage
Have a wonderful day!
