{long since last time…}

Published by Marica under Allmänt

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!

{Kviltstina…}

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!
