A new bag / OPAM May 2014

For Opam in May I have made a bag using a turquoise fabric that I a got from my dear friend Linda.
It is a Riley Blake fabric with lots of small quilt related things on. I absolutely adore this sweet fabric.
Thank you so much Linda :-)

I made a small tote bag with the leftovers and I still have a small piece left.

Just a wonderful picture of a Japanese Cherry three in bloom. I came across it on my walk to our last club meeting late in april. I just had to share :-)

Block #12 in my Mystery BOM

Happy Birthday Norway, our constitution are 200 years today !!

This picture is taken from my visit to Wenches Kjøkken at Kokkenes in Arendal last year. The Pavlova was fantastic ...
Red, blue and White are the colors of Norway !!

Hipp Hipp Hurra for Norge i dag !!!
Jeg håper alle sammen der ute får en fantastisk dag :-)
Bilde er tatt av en Pavlova vi ble servert på Wenches kjøkken på Kokkenes i Arendal i fjord.
Et helt fantastisk måltid !

My last Swoon block

Here is my last Swoon block. 

Thank you so much to Linda who was so kind to give some of her beige fabric. 

I was short of this fabric because I did a mistake when I was cutting. 

Linda saved my last block from ending up in the bin. 

Block #10 and 11 in my Mystery BOM

I have Finished block #10 and 11. Very happy to catch up on the Bom again. 

Waiting for block  #12 to end up in my mailbox, it will be the last block in the Mysteri BOM Of 2013 from Fatquarter shop. 

Fabrics are Avalon from Moda. I have lot of leftovers and I am looking forward to play with them later on. Maybe a new bag or I think they will look good in some place mates too. 

A summer table, love it !! It is so good to finally have some sunny days :-) 

Today I try to find upside down on my Swoon project. Hmmmm what is Color 1 and what is Color 2??? I guess I need some lunch before I can continue :-)) 

A new table runner

I have made another table runner for our summer house :-) 

The fabrics are Moda / Hearty good Wishes mini charm pack.  

I bought the mini charm packs from Quiltekunst. I loved these range of fabrics. 

Maybe a cushion some day and some inspirations for sewing

This is going to be a cushion for Christmas and I am making 2 of them. Luckily it is still a long time to Christmas.
The designer is the norwegian designer AnnKa and the fabrics are Lynette Andersen and I bought the fabrics at Quilt´en in Arendal a long time ago.

Some inspiration for sewing.
The turquoise fabric is a gift from my dear friend Linda. She gave to me as a challenge and I stepped right on to it,
I will show you soon :-)

The pillows where found at a Store called No.1 in Kristiansand.

OPAM april 2014 / a new table runner / Easter pictures

A new table runner :-)
I have used Moda / 3 sisters / Printemps. The squares are 3x 5" and the white ones are 1,5 X3".A charm pack is perfect for this fun and easy project! Anyone wants to try?? Let me know !

I guess this will be my last winter pictures until the next winter i november.
Easter was a dream all over the southern parts of Norway with lots of sun, warm temperatures and still enough snow to enjoy cross-country skiing.

My youngest daughter Tonje :-)

My husband is actually sitting down, a rare moment ..

The last sunset before we are heading home to spring and hopefully some summer later on.

Happy Easter

Just a quick post to wish you all a wonderful happy Easter !! I am on my way to the cabin in the Mountains and we will enjoy the last part of winter.
