I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy new year. I hope you are all well !
We were supposed to celebrate Christmas at the cabin but the the weather did not cooperate. Because of heavy snowfall we decided to stay at home and I have spent most of the day decorating the house. My mom is here with us this Christmas and that makes the holiday special for us!

Take care,have fun and enjoy the Christmas holiday everyone ...

Jeg ønsker dere alle sammen en God Jul og et Godt Nyttår år. Jeg håper dere har det bra! Vi skulle egentlig feire julen på hytta men pga været som er meldt her sør i morgen og julaften fant vi ut at vi like gjerne kunne bli hjemme. Ikke nødvendig i trekke min mor på 85 år opp i et snøkaos eller at min eldste datter skulle kjøre opp på hytta etter jobb på julaften..
Jeg har derfor brukt dagen på å pynte til jul og treet kommer vel opp i kveld.

Ta vare på hverandre og kos dere i julen.

Still into Teddies ;-)

Just a little toilet purse with my darling teddies all dressed up for Christmas ..
The pattern are from the norwegian designer AnnaKa.

Jeg har laget en liten toalettveske med mine søte bamser som er ferdig pyntet til jul..
Mønsteret er AnnaKa sitt.

Just a little peek ..

Some of you know that I love Teddies ..
I got this cute fabric from a sweet friend who did not know what to do with it. I guess she has a lot of other fabrics she rather would like to use..
Thanks to Nina.
Today is my day off and I have tried to slow down and I have done some of this and some sewing.. I hope you all take time to enjoy the season !

Noen av dere vet at jeg er veldig glad i bamser. Jeg fikk dette flotte stoffet av Nina i sy gruppa mi. Jeg regner med at hun en hel haug med andre stoffer hun heller hadde lyst til å sy med. Takk til Nina.
Jeg holder på med en løper. Jeg får vise den senere når den er ferdig.
I desember er det mye å gjøre på jobb og hjemme privat så jeg prøver å stresse ned innimellom. Jeg håper dere også tar dere tid til å stresse ned litt !

What am I up to ;-)

This is my dark version of Carousel, a pattern by It´s sew Emma / Fatquartershops book " Simply Fat Quarters".
It is supposed to be a wedding gift next year and it is ready to be sent to quilting..
I hope some of you have time to enjoy sewing in this busy times. My time is scares and I am slowly moving forward with some of my projects.

Her er min mørke versjon av Carousel, design It´s sew Emma. Mønsteret er hente fra en bok utgitt av Fatquartershop kalt Simply fat quarters. Boka er kjempefin og det er flere prosjekter der som jeg har lyst til å sy !! Dette teppe skal være en bryllups presang til neste år en gang. Deilig å være tidlig ute ;-) Teppe er nå klar til å sendes til quilting ..
Jeg håper dere får tid til å kose dere litt med å sy litt, her går det litt sakte framover med noen andre småting.
I går fikk jeg lagt inn påmelding til Årsmøte i Sarpsborg i mars neste år. Jeg gleder meg stort til quiltegryte med Joanna Figueroa, Fresh Figs !! Er det andre der ute som skal? Jeg har også meldt meg på frokost med bloggere, det blir kos !

Advent

It is this time of year ;-)
A very special time for waiting for something great !


En veldig spesiell tid på året hvor vi venter på noe stort som skal skje !
