Today I was in our local quiltshop and took a photo of a christmas quilt I designed some years ago. I have to print new patterns for sale and wanted a new photo of it. The saying is : Engler daler ned i skjul (norwegian). From the old christmas song Glade jul (english; Silent night). Means something like: angels coming down from the sky.
After that I went to visit my friend Irene. She and I was going to make a new model for the shop. Making a cube quilt from Jinny Beyers newest fabrics. I have to be careful with rotarycutting.So Irene did the rotarycutting.......
I sewed the pieces together
And then we started to play with the cubes
I guess you too have taken photos standing on a chair LOL....
and then some more sewing......
And this is how far we got today.............
Saying for today:Scarecrows, corn rows...
Pumpkins on the vine......
Leaves curl, wind swirls..
Fall is right on time........

Greetings From Georgia. Yes, I was wondering who you were. I see that you recently had your b-day. Mine will be next week! I'd love to win the quilt too, but I'm thinking you know more folks than me!
I do love the Christmas quilt you photographed. It is beautiful.
I also noticed you live in Norway. My husband's mother's family is from Sweden and his father's side is from Norway. So all very interesting.

You really made a great team, that is beautiful! So many bias edges makes me scared.

Your Xmas quilt is adorable :o) And I really like the cubes - another thing I'd like to do... once I have some of all my projects finished... perhaps... *lol*

Congrats on winning Amanda's quilt! She does beautiful work, I've seen several of her quilts first hand. I am loving your cubes quilt here. I always wondered how those were put together. I don't do so well with triangles, but this is tempting me to try!
Your angels are adorable! And I love how your cubes look! I'm glad you took it easy and let Irene do the cutting! And Yes, I have stood on chairs for pictures before!
What a cute project! And I left a comment for you over at Crazy Mom. Hope you win! ~A :-)

Second...yes indeed I have climbed on chairs and arms of sofas to take pictures of quilts.
And third...I love that quilt!
Everything is beautiful in your blog!
Bring me lots of inspirations!
So precious projects!
And you have a cat! It's complete!
I love your design. I didn't know you had patterns out! I like the cooperative project with Irene, too.
Love those cubes and the colours, good to see you going so well. tracey
