New home for a rabbit

Yesterday I got mail!!
a package from Tanja :-)
I won her giveaway which was
an adorable "Tilda rabbit"
Thank you so much Tanja
she was worth waiting for.
Here she is sitting in my bedroom window.

This weekend my quilting-group
Quiltkramarna ("The quilt hugs")
started with it´s meeting after the summerbreak.
I manage to quilt an old UFO I found in a box.
.............something for my kitchen table


A couple of month ago
I joined a Rainbow swap organized by Jane
-Thank you Jane!!!-
and here is a peak off some of the blocks put together
now I just have to figure out how to quilt it
I have some ideas...............


Hugs to all of you......................Ankie

This, that and tatoo

what have I been doing lately?????
no posts on my blog , bad bad
I and my DH have been talking about doing something creative
by that I don´t mean anything hobby-ish (a new word?)
no no no............
we decided to get a tatoo!!!!
below you see mine
a cute little dragonfly on my leg.
(I try to sign everything I make with a dragonfly)

However I´ve been doing some sewing today
here is a sneakpeak
of what I´m doing for my partner in the Advent swap´
thought a lot about this 25 parcels I´m going to send her
but now I think I have a finished plan
and most of the parcels are ready



I bought some bagframes from the UK
just grabbed some fabric
and made myself a new handbag
quite handy
You can make several bags use the same frame
and change from day to day
very practical...............

The pattern comes from U-handbag

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