It’s a while since I updated the blog but there has been much to do. Has sewn bit blocks to a switch which I participate with Stina and Louise. Stina has had his and now I have just finished blocks to Louise. Tomorrow, they go off in the mail. After that, I can show you some pictures of them

I made these blocks for Stina and it was really fun to sew

Last week I was at the Umeå and finished my training I have completed one years at the university. We ended with an exhibition and this was one of the projects that I made…

Unfortunately, the quilt is not entirely clear on this picture. Did not manage to get some good pictures of it at the show. Hope to be able to take a photo of this home some day

Now it is time to sleep for a bit to maybe sew tomorrow

Take care!

Last fall I write about the school I had started. Last week I started the course 2 of which I did last fall .. It was nice to meet all new classmates who come from all of Sweden .. At our meeting last week we made a study visit with guided tour at Umedalens sculpture park ..

What did we more? We had a workshop there we have 3 options to work with fabrics. One of them was to shrink a fabric (50cm*50cm) with needle and thread to a size of 20 cm x 20 cm. That was no problem but to do it the opposite ie to make a piece of fabric on the 25cm x 25cm to double the size was more difficult Some of my classmates did great work

That was my last week and this week that comes I have a lot of schoolwork to do and continue with my secret gifts to a couple of friends ..

Thanks for dropping by…

Have completely forgotten that I have taken the photo on one of our school days .. In order to get to know each other, we had small groups where we would carry out a mission. Each group got to draw four notes, in these, it could be like headgear, metal, embroidery and shaggy .. For these words, it would be creating a headdress as it should be with any metal, brother and slightly shaggy .. We got 1 hour for us to create something and this was what one group did. The other groups had other duties, and this is where we created

To further get to know one of the classmates, we would draw portraits of each other in a special way. It was not look down on what you wrote but would watch all the time of the person who designed by
After that we had drawn, we would transmit this as an embroidery on linen, but different kinds of stitches, we had also add other material to get a free creative embroidery portrait .. How easy is it and I who can barely draw, so this became my results

I forgot to take photos at all the portraits, but on Monday, I try to remember it and show imagination so filled all became

Now is the time to proceed with the swap bag ..

Have a great weekend!
