Almost forgot

to post about a class I took a week ago.

Our teacher was Andre Wallenborg and we made a purse.

Purse folded out on the outside

on the inside

lots of pockets for cards etc.

for coins

It was a really fun class. I learned a lot.

I have also made a small clam shell case.

it is perfect for keeping thimbles in it.

It is all happening this weekend

Tomorrow I will have a talk about my life as a quilter at my loqal quiltshop quiltegaarden.blogspot.no.

This my first quilt. It lives in my mom`s house. Borrowed on a promise to take good care of it.

It has a lot of designs from Debbie Mum in it.

Fabrics used are all kinds, from second hand mens shirts to designer fabrics.

Techniques used are all from handpiecing, foundationpaperpiecing, mashinepiecing and of course handquilting.

And also tomorrow I will pick up my new sofa. There will be no time this weekend to enjoy it!
