Fat Quarter

Here comes a picture of the brown fabric I wrote about in my last post.

Today I used it on a quilt, soon finished. It´s a secret one, but you will find the pattern in Fat Quarter, the Swedish quilt magazine, in November. Later you will find it in my shop.

But this is not my first pattern in Fat Quarter. Do you remember my autumn bag?

Look! Isn´t it fantastic! I´m world famous, at least in Sweden....

I´m so happy and proud....

My September shopping

Fabric - that´s a magic thing for me. I can create fantastic things, they are beautiful to look at, make my cupboard looking nice, make me happy, inspired, they comfort me, make me relax....
And not once, but three times: when I buy them, when I look at them and when I use them....

OK, that was some kind of philosophic excuse for a lot of shopping last month.....

These fabrics were purchased for a special project, secret for some weeks.....but I planned to buy them.

These wonderful ones just wanted to follow me home, is that my fault?

Fabrics that I needed. They are for my log cabin scrap quilt so I can finish that old UFO.

Just had to buy these, couldn´t resist, they had to go with me.....

These are for a special project, I had a hard time to find the right colours, but I think I´m satisfied at last....

Yesterday I purchased a piece of dark brown fabric....busy working on finishing a project....more about that next time....

Thank you very much!

It´s time to do something about my bad conscience. I have felt so unpolite the last weeks. I´m very grateful for the beautiful things I´ve received and I feel very spoilt.

A couple of weeks ago this cute little bag arrived in my mailbox. It was from Christine, I was the lucky winner. Thank you very much Christine!! I really love it, this one was the cutest.....


A few days ago I received my bag from the Friendship Bag Swap. It came from Mandy all the way to Sweden from Australia.

At that´s not all that was in that parcel!
Look at this picture....I feel so spoilt.... Thank you very much!

Today there was another parcel in my mailbox, two beautiful fabrics from Carina. I was the lucky winner in her giveaway. These fabrics are really my style, thank you Carina.

That´s all from me today, I try to catch up with a little bit of everything each day. I will be back tomorrow, more to show and tell. And I´m planning to catch up with my e-mails tomorrow too....that means a lot of work....but I feel satisfied being back again!

A new start

What a month September was but it ended up well and I´m so grateful. As I told you in my last post a month ago (yes, I know) my mother was in hospital. A week after that post she had to go to another hospital, in Lund, for heart surgery, a by-pass operation. Thank God, everything went well and since two weeks she has been at home again. She is still a little bit tired but recovers fast.

This is why you haven´t heard from me for a while....too tired, nervous and busy. When everything was back to normal again I felt like a zombie....my brain didn´t work, too tired.....
But now I´m back here in blogland again and I will try to catch up with everything.
A big thank you for all nice comments on my previous post, I know I haven´t answered but I hope you will forgive me.
I will post about gifts I have recieved and of course say thank you to all you nice people.
And I have a lot of e-mails to answer and people to contact, so stay tuned, I haven´t forgotten...

In the evening of 09-09-09, the day for mom´s surgery I designed this quilt and I named it "Heartbeat". I have planned to make it for her as a gift, maybe for her next birthday....
I´m very pleased with it and it has a special feeling for me.
