my handsew project has grown a little in sweden

malmö and kopenhagen

i am back from a short trip to malmö and kopenhagen with my youngest daughter,we had a very nice time.malmö is just beautiful and kopenhagen too,but much bigger,too big for just 4 hours.
the two pictures above are from kopenhagen,the other three i took in the center of malmö

look what i bought yesterday

dear friends,just have a look ,what i bought yesterday on a fleamarket:the mother of all needles and a beautiful very old pin cushion. who of us could resist to buy this?

new projekt for sewing by hand

my hexagon star quilt is nearly done ,so i needed something new to sew by hand,,and thats it:its from anette geros book,the fabric of society,but without a pattern,so i did one by myself,was`nt so difficult .in the original every patch is embroidered,but i will trie to use fabric fuzzy cut,if i find enough in my stash.

border on the right

the right side border is finished,but now it will be a little pause,my oldest daughter is coming home for four days,she is living 800km away from us,so we dont see her so often.

i got it

i got it today,all the way from australia to northern germany,and i am really impressed.it`s a wonderful book,and there are a few quilts i would love to sew.
