And washa, washa, washa!!!

I have a lot of unwashed fabric
and decided I have to do something about it
as I told you before
I started to wash and wash
and wash..............
The weather was very nice and warm last week
so the fabric dried outside
After that
a lot of ironing
Oh I really love this -
ha, ha ............
maybe not!




Then I have finished one of my pillowcases
I think it turned out quite well
decided to use a zipper for closing
The first photo shows the back


And here is the front
with the finished meshwork

Going Japanese

Yesterday it was time for a meeting
with my quilting guild "Kviltkramarna".
We invited Janet from Falun to teach us how to do japanese mesh-work.
This was really fun to make.
But you really had to use your brain.

Janet, Margareta and Mona



And here we have Siv very focused


And below you see my 2 meshworks-star.
This will be 2 cushions when they are finished.
It´s something wrong with the colours they are green not blue




Thank you very much Janet !!!

Remember
2 under, 1 over, 2 under, 1 over.................

What´s in the envelope?

Hallo everybody....
Yesterday I mailed the package to USA
Stamps: 40Skr ????????????
I think it´s much to cheap
But they insisted at the postoffice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Maybee it comes back to me...............

However
Here you see a photo of the content
13 9-patch-blocks (1 4-you Jane)
13 cat-blocks (also 1 4-you J) in 5 different patterns



Today I am going to wash some new fabrics
that I have bought in different stores

This first photo shows
the fabrics from "Gittes tygkälla"
a wonderful shop with lots of bolts
sorted by colour


Next one............
these ones come from
"Ohlssons tyger" in Gävle

And the last photo shows fabrics that I bought
at
"Stoff & Stil" in Malmö

You can´t have to much fabric..................
or?????????????????

Hugs................................Ankie
