OPAM february and some charm pack fun..

I have made a new table runner as a gift for a male friend. I have used dark colors to try to make a table runner to fit
his special space in the living room. I really hope he will like it :-)
The fabric are a mini charm pack I bought a long time ago.

Here are my version of "Charm pack Cherry" a fun free pattern from Fatquartershops blogg.
There are also a Youtube video of the tutorial by sweet Kimberly at Fatquarter shop.
You can find the pattern here.
I made the quilt top in 1 day and I loved making it. My back is acing now so there will not be any more sewing today :-)
I have used charm pack from Moda / High Street by Lily Ashbury for this quilt top. The High Street collection are so filled with promises of a lovely summer.Yes I sure hope so !

Just a little snow ;-)

I just have to show you some pictures from our cabin this weekend!
We have more than enough snow I guess :-)
I have not ever seen so much snow in the mountains where our cabin are seated ……………
The focus has been to remove snow from the roof and to make sure that we have free ways to escape if necessary/ emergency exits.
As you can imagine we have not been out of work this weekend :P

Here is the cabin without snow :-)

Merry merry snowmen block # 7,8 and 9

I am almost done with my Merry Merry snowmen project. I only have to put all the blocks together and put the boarders on.
Yes :-)

Endelig ferdig med alle blokkene. Nå gjenstår det bare å sy sammen alle blokkene og sy på ramme :-)

A gift from my dear friend Melanie.
Thank you so much!

En gave fra min gode venn Melanie.
Tusen takk!

Picture of the cabin from last weekend. Since then it has been snowing 75 cm with more snow …. The weather forecast tells us that it will snow even more next week. Puh...

Bilde fra hytta forrige helg, siden da har det kommet 75 cm med nysnø. Neste uke vil det snø enda mer :-)
Jeg tror vi må opp og måke taket en gang til!

BOM rehab ..

The Mystery quilt for 2013 Block #5, 6 and 7 are finished today. Now I am waiting for block #8, its a little bit late this month ?? Have anyone else received block #8 ??
I was way behind but I had a plan to catch up today and made it.. Now it is just the Merry Merry Snowmen project that I am behind with. I hope to catch up there too, maybe tomorrow ??
I love the word "BOM rehab" . I saw it at Messy Karens blogg and I thought it said it all..
"Quilt Republic" is another word that I love !

I dag har sydd 3 nye blokker i min Mysteri quilt: nummer 5,6 og 7. Nå venter jeg bare på blokk 8 som er litt sent ute denne måneden. Jeg håper den kommer snart..
Jeg har vært litt streng med meg selv og sagt at jeg ikke får begynne på noe nytt før jeg er ajour med prosjektene mine.
Nå er det bare Merry merry snowmen prosjektet som jeg har litt igjen på.. Kanskje i morra ??
Jeg fant ordet "BOM rehab" på Messy Karens blogg og fant ut det var en flott måte å si ting på som egentlig sa det meste :-)
"Quilt Republic"er annet ord som jeg har hengt meg opp!( Fra en bok )

As you can see: We have enough snow for the moment !! Right now it is raining so it might get very interesting tomorrow. Other parts of Norway are experiences very dry conditions and there has been some sever fires and some families have lost their homes...

Som dere ser er det mer enn nok snø på sørlandet!! Akkurat nå regner det så dette kan bli morsomt etterhvert.
Andre steder i landet vårt er det knusktørt og det er hverfall ingen ønske situasjon etter alle de brannene vi har hatt hvor mange har mistet hjemmene sine og er blitt evakuert.
