A prize


When I came home from holiday, there was a package waiting for me from Denmark.

Anni - http://www.annischoice.blogspot.com/ - had a "contest" a few weeks ago, and I was the one who won. It's not often I'm that lucky. Thanks a lot Anni for all you sent me! I look forward to make the purse and do the stitchery.

Summer

After some travelling, I'm back home. It's nice to meet friends and relatives, but it's good to be at home again after some time away. We have had some fantastic summer days lately; almost too hot to do much. I enjoy looking at the flowers in the garden, especially some of the roses. They look great, and some of them have a nice scent too.





On Sunday DH, our youngest daughter and I were walking in the mountains. It's hard to find words; it was just great! I really enjoyed it.



Summer is not the time of the year when I do a lot of handicraft. but in between the travelling I have made a table runner ( again ) and a cushion. I made a cushion a few months ago, and the woman who got it, asked me to made one more. They fitted so well in her cottage.

What will be the next project? I have to think about it :-)

During the weekend I finished a few things. The weather has been quite bad the last days, so it as perfect for sewing.

Two table runners with almost the same pattern.
A blue bag which has many pockets inside.

Summer package


It has been a long time since I updated my blog. Time is passing by so quickly, and we are now already in the end of June.

A few days ago I received a summer package from a quilting friend in Germany. As you can see, she really spoiled me. Now I can have a tea party :-) Thanks a lot, Tina!

Thanks

Thank you all for visiting me from time to time, and I appreciate your comments very much.


This table runner has been in the shelf for some time. It needed some applique and today it was done. One less on the UFO list :-o
Time passes. It's June, and we have had very nice weather for some days. The days and the nights are light, and you don't become aware of that it's late.


I have finished the blocks for part 4 of the mystery, but haven't started the next step. I think I will use green and yellow/yellowbrown for these blocks. Probably I will wait until the weekend before starting.
