In the beginning of this week I got a heavy letter from Carrie -Miss Rosie. For a few weeks ago I won a giveaway. Two wonderful rulers to make perfect flying geese from Opengate. She has also sent some extra goodies and it feels like I had a birthday

Thanks a lot Carrie for your gifts

Way too long since I updated this blog. But time has not been found, or perhaps I should say the inspiration
But some new things I have sewn at least in the project – Another Year Of Schnibble. January monthly pattern had been completed. It was a small pillow.

February and March monthly pattern is just the top part completed but is about to get them ready for quilting and then, they have become two pillowcases ..

Now I’m only waiting on the April monthly pattern and then I´ll search among the Japanese´s woven and printed fabrics, which I intend to use this year’s Schnibbles.

Take care and See you later!

At last, my pincushion finished as my friend Stina gave to me as a secret Christmas gift. The embroidery was quick to make but after that I have no idea where the time went to prepare it. But today we had about – 32 degrees below zero outside, so it was good to spend some time in the sewing room. It is actually a lots of ongoing projects that must be take care of before it´s time to start up new projects. But it’s so fun to do something new instead Bye the way if you went over to Stina you´ll find this wonderful stitchery and pattern to make this cute pincushion..

Thanks a lot Stina for this secret gift. It was fun to make

Take care!

I came here on the blog and updated : ( It has not happened so much here really. sewing machine and fabrics have been resting properly Have spent many evenings and working voluntarily in Friskis & Svettis and it will be enough, all this month also .

But now to something more fun. Also this year, Sinta and Sherri arrange a challenge called Another Year of Schnibbles. I was included in their previous project, Le Petite, last year. Unfortunately I did not do all the 12-month project but there are plans to maybe catch them this year. But anyway, I’ve working in the sewing room for a few days and make the January pattern - Full House by Carrie. Unfortunately, nothing goes well but eventually I got the help from my friend Laila. Thank you so very much! Then it went so perfect to make some cute little house and them will become a pillow later this weekend. But I finish the top

Now time for bed and I promise it´ll not take so long time before I update next time

Take care!
