Summer!



Two weeks at this island without fabrics, sewingmashine and quilts was.....fantastic!
You may not believe it but it is possible.
 We have enjoyed being with children and grandchildren, swimming in the sea,
 long walks and good food.

Fabulous days!

But now we are back home and great things happens.
After a few hours at home we got a new grandchild!!! 
A boy..our third grandchild!
Happiness!

Well..that means at least one thing..I now have two quilts to make!
One for Aksel born in may and one for Anton.

So..get started!





I've bought loads of fabrics and I always wash them to get rid of some chemicals.
 I put up a clothing line in the garden because it was so nice weather. 


It was beautiful in my garden with all the fabrics blowing in the wind.




The fabrics dried in a few minutes....and then...





....it is possible to iron out in the sun as well!!




Here are some of all new fabrics, ready to be used for new projects.
Quilts for my grandchildren Aksel and Anton. 
But before that, I'll start with a wall piece to be shown at an exhibition later this year.
 I tell you more about that later on.

Enjoy the summer!

  3. Aren't those fabrics wonderful? I also love hanging them up in the garden when I have a bunch of them to wash. They are so inspiring and just warms your heart to look at them! Congratulations on your grandchild!
