In the last minute......

for January

and that was the crazy curve quilt

that I started on last Sunday

I have used parts of the fabric collection Iced Mocha

and I think it turned out quite well

this is gonna have it´s place in my office at work

and here is a close up

then I have to show a picture of my three cats

during brekfasttime

when I looked out the window

Friday morning-Sunday morning

I saw snow, snow and snow

Busy weekend

I had a lot to do this weekend

it started with a meeting with my

quiltfriends "Quiltkramarna"

I decided to make a wallhanger

for my office at work

since I work at a diary

I looked for a pattern with a cow

and found an AnnaKa pattern

the original is a tablerunner

I finished it today

and here is the picture

A close-up

Then on Sunday I had a class at Quiltbiten

to learn how to sew this

with crazy curve-templates

very funny to make

and much more easy to make than I thought it would

then rest of the weekend did I spent

cleaning out the bathroom downstairs

we gonna start renovating this week

I haven´t decided yet how to put the blocks together

but I have an idea that I´m gonna try

Then I have been thinking of what project

I´m gonna sew, when my quilting guild

My DH also has a hobby

my oldest DD´s birthdayquilt

ready to quilt

It´s a pattern from " Tyger och tings " (in english "Fabrics and things") book
