She has sorted the designs by difficulty levels;

You are welcome to go to her projectsite. Happy quilting to you all!!!!!

Last Sunday we went for a walk by Lake Mjøsa

Lake Mjøsa, Norway's largest inland lake. Beautifully covered by ice and snow!

P.S. "Skibladner" is the pride of Norway's inland, and one of Norway's best-loved tourist attractions. This preserved and restored paddle steamer is over 150 years old but continues to run a timetabled service in the summer months. Now during the winter she is resting in her winterhome in Gjøvik :-)

Freebie; Snowman to stitch or appliqué

We are having a really cold wonderful winterweather these days. So I celebrate this with you with this cute snowman. You can stitch him or simply appliqué the wintertheme; I think it will turn out great in any case.
I'm looking forward to attending a weekendbag-course tomorrow!! First I have to choose some fabrics for the weekendbag........ Take care!

OUR FAMILY; a quilt poem


Our family is like a patchwork quilt
With kindness gently sewn
Each piece an original
With beauty all its own
With threads of warmth and happiness
Its lightly stitched together
To last in love throughout the years
Our family is forever.
