New books and SSCS

Got these books yesterday. I ordered them last week from http://www.capris.no/ and they arrived very fast. A new norwegian book called Julegleder (christmas joy) that has a lot of fun small projects. There is something in it that calls my attention now. Perhaps christmasgifts. Better hurry up.

And the newest book in the elm creek series. Will save this for christmas reading. This is more like a cook book with a lot of interesting recipes in it, but it is also a novel about the elm creek quilters.

Been quilting on my Leannes House some days now. I hope I will manage to finish it this year, but times does fly so fast right now.

And in the mail there was a note from the postman that a package was waiting for me at the postoffice. I guess it is the SSCS present. All the way from Sydnay Australia to me. Thank you Anita, when I get it home I will hide it for opening christmas eve.

Saying for today:
A good friend is like a wonderful book,
the inside is even better than the cover!

Where on earth do you get the great quotes? I look forward to the ends of your posts as much as the beginnings.

I've recently purchased this Elm Creek book also. It is lots more recipes and much less stories - but the story that is there is interesting so far. The receipes look good - I'd love to try some of them - but they are definitely not diet fare!

I love the part of the Leanne's quilt that's facing up. It looks wonderful!

Julegleder looks like a beautiful book - I will have to get my DH to look out for that next time he is in Norway. Love the candle shop - looks so festive!
