A feeling of spring

Now when Christmas is over I felt that I was longing for a breeze of spring. I took these fabrics and started to sew.


Square in a square


This is how the table runner turn out, with a breeze of spring. It still needs batting and backing, quilting and binding.


In the hen house these lovely ladies have also got the spring feeling, eggs are comming. Thank you ladies <3


Have a nice weekend, Elisabeth

Some quilting and autumn days





I found this kind off mosaics interesting so I tryed to make one myself. I don´t know where I loost it, but somehow I did not know how to finished it, so this is what I came up with.



Practise on FMQ, I think it is not that bad to be first time.

Another project with a lot of application


It is - Joy to the world, from Art to Heart






and where else should I find the small pieces of fabrics that I need, in my scraps




Now I have to sew around every little piece of fabrics. it is just to get started :-)





In such a nice weather is it nice to take a little walk in the autumn sun. Can´t stay inside sewing all day long







autumn collors







happiness






fun playing








A beautiful ending of a beautiful day






Until next time, Elisabeth

A little sewing and a litle knitting

I had some nice fabric that I wanted to make a little hand bag of, and it turns out like this. A realy sweet one I think.


Have you ever got a patter you don´t understand? Well, I did. I had order a beautiful wool yarn who was hand dyed and hand spun for making me a shawl. It was a little hard for me to understand what the patter should be like as it was written in english (for me, better with swedish). As you se I did not give up trying to make it, just needed some time, lol



Here you can see how the patter turned out, it is a star patter that I belief is called estonia star( hope I remember rigth)


Now I had the yarn by mail, and isen´t it beautiful? The yarn is named - soft rainbow-

I order the yarn at Mia´s Esty shop -www.esty.com/shop/vikevira



So far so good, just loving it!


A closer look at the pattern



Now finished and showing up on the stairs :-)



Next time I will show and tell from the summer on the farm :-)


Until then, Elisabeth
