SSCS

To day the parcel for SSCS arrived all the way from Noela Young in Australia.
I never guessed that you was my secret partner. Thank you for the present.



I have opened the little present, and to my joy found a chocolatebar and a lovely ornament.
I love it, thank you very much.




I am looking forward to see what`s inside the big parcel.


Wishing you a happy evening

"Goosemother"

The pattern is called "Gåsemor" in Norwegian, and is designed by Rie Norum.
It is a quilt I am handquilting. It takes some time to get done. Specially because I find so many other tempting projects to start on!!





I love handquilting, and would handquilt all my quilts if I knew I would have nine lives like the cat!!
But I do pick out some quilts to handquilt. Others I quilt on my machine or send  off to a professional.

This post is a response to a call for handquilters from Caron at blog.caronmosey.com
I will also ad a button to link to this call in my blog.

Meet Mr. and Mrs. Hansen



They arrived from Denmark last night.
After a good night sleep they are now ready to get to know their new home.


While waiting for these two I have been working on SSCS presents. Sorry can`t show photos of that, it is a secret.

I am starting to get ready for christmas.
Started on some tablerunners earlier this year. Are now handquilting one of those.



Pattern is from a norwegian designer, Trine bakke.

I am also having a go at making some purses.


The hexies are 1/4" and I used wool for the purse. The lining is under constrution at the moment.
Will post more about that later.

Have a great weekend
