5 røde "gjess" / 5 little "geese"

"Flying Geese" var utfordringa Di hadde for denne måneden. Jeg sydde et mobiletui med røde "gjess"
 The "Flying Geese" pattern was the challenge Di had for June. I made this case for the mobile phone
Ellers er det mere fart i strikkepinnene enn i symaskina for tida.
At the moment I knit more than I sew.

Mørke farger / Dark colours

Ikke den store aktiviteten i mitt kreative hjørne den siste tida. Men nedenfor ser dere noen småting som er blitt ferdig. De mørke fargene dominerer, noe som passer godt til været vi har. Skodda ligger nesten ned til vannflata, det siler ned og gradestokken er kommet opp i hele 5 - 6 grader! Burde kanskje sydd noe i sommerlige stoff ........
Not much activity in my creative corner recently, only a few little projects are finished. The dark colours dominate. Just like the summer weather at the moment - fog, rain and 5 - 6 C degrees ( 41-42 F )! May be I should sew something in more bright fabrics .......

Party weekend

In the weekend I joined Donna's international cyber sewing party. She celebrated Chookshed's 2nd birthday. People were joining all over the world.

As I was away for a couple of days, I didn't manage to sew as much as I hoped for. But I did a little progress on an old stitchery. It was more than a year since last time I worked on it . This quilt will take at least 10 years before it's done I guess :-(
 I made a couple of sewing boxes using stripes I had. A third one - in green colours - is half done.
Thanks a lot for hosting this fun Donna! I hope you do the same next year.
                               Happy Quilting!
