Cuttlebug

Egentlig et utstyr jeg bruker i kortlagingen min, men det er gøy å teste det ut på andre hobbyer også. Jeg har tidligere laget små bilder med små utstansede blomster, men her har jeg brukt større former. Jeg har malt,stanset ut blomster,brodert bakgrunner, applikerting og sydd på dusinvis med perler. Et lite blomsterhav ble det.

Inspirasjonen min var egentlig jordene i Nederland med alle radene av farger med tulipaner. Veggteppet måler ca 60 x 100 cm

Ha en fin torsdag alle sammen. Her er det varmt , men litt overskyet.

Amsterdam dag 1

Noen herlige dager i solfylte Amsterdam og Veldhoven

Open European Quilt Championships 2011
5 until 8 May 2011
KONINGSHOF IN VELDHOVEN
THE NETHERLANDS

Lykkelig….Rett over gaten for hotellet fant jeg 2 quiltebutikker vegg i vegg. Denne var bare så koselig med todelt dør, som vi hadde på hytta på fjellet engang i sin tid; forat sauene ikke skulle komme inn. Syftet her vet jeg ikke, men trivelig var det

    

Under er butikk nr2.Her var det mer utstyr og bøker og farge glade stoffer. Damen bak disken inviterte meg med på busstur på søndagen nedover til Quilte Festivalen, men desverre da var vi tilbake i Norge.

 

Ha en fin kveld.

Bente Malms

skulderveske………mønsteret kjøpte jeg på tur i Bergen. Nå er jeg klar for neste tur med ny veske.

Den var morsom og enkel å sy etter mønsteret. Disse skulder remmene er absolutt å anbefale til hanker, slitesterke og enkle å sy.

Det er nok slutt på disse som jeg vrenger med vatt og kantebånd…… En lærer stadig noe nytt

Ha en fin quiltedag Inger Lise
