Better and Better ...................

Yes,"better and better" is because I think I have learned how to cope with all the new this and that from Blogger....very easy,really :0))) Love my new little shoe-bag.It was my sewing bag when I went to the work- class with Gail and Helen last week. From Anni Downs` book Something wonderful. I bought the fabric when at the NQF annual meeting in Bergen. Decided to line the bag. I love it!
With the same fabric I made this purse/bag for my DIL-to-be:-) Mona had her birthday in March. This is the seize she wanted, big enough to lots of stuff into it.
I used same pattern as the one I did sew for my DD for the FNSI in February. Such an easy pattern,very well described on Lena`s blog as well.
Friends of my Gch,Kasper,checking his Monster quilt! He was ever so proud showing which monster he had made some time ago.... and a proud Granny there as well.Eline looks a wee bit different with her new fringe. EASTER-TIME. Last year I bought the fabrics and the Norwegian Quiltemagasinet. This table runner will be made this Easter, probably :-)
Hope that you will have a HAPPY EASTER! The weather is perfect here in Oslo - cold and with a bright,super sun - Vitamin "fresh air" counts a lot for me. No skiing this Easter,but bound to see the blue,blue sea. My DD has bought a new car,so I`m in for lots of driving around,I bet.
It`s VERY WARM in the sun,almost 35 Celcius,but still weather with a cold air.Soon sitting down with a nice cup of tea,looking at the Easter flowers and may be do some needle-turn applique on the quilt from last week`s workshop:-) All the best to you for an enjoyable and good Easter this year. Hugs from Grethe.

Happy easter my friend! I love your table runner. I need to make something 'Eastery' before next year. I think it's a little late for this year. Cute photo with the kids!

Så mye fint du har laget! Jeg har også laget flere av de " gourgous shoes"-veskene og gitt i gave til mine søstre og min mor. Men beholdt en selv, og den er en favoritt!
