Time flies so fast and with no internet at home I have not blogged for several weeks.

Last thursday I and three other friends went for a long weekend at my friends cabin. Sewing from early morning to early morning. Just a little bit sleep in between. I have for a long time wanted to sew something from Lori Holts book “Farm girl vintage”, and now that halloween is next weekend I desided to sew some pumpkins.

We had beautiful weahter all weekend. And we did not sit indoors by the sewing machines all day long. We also went for a long walk one of the days.

Since I bought Jen Kingwells book “Quilt Lovely” I have wanted to sew one of her pillows. So fun to make these small blocks.

All these projects was started last weekend. I finished two of the “What’s in your bag”. Three pairs of potholders got their binding on. And I sewed this Jen Kingwell pillow.

We did not sit in front of the sewing machines all the time. I always bring some handsewing with me to do when we relaxes in the sofa.

And my handquilting project is finished. Doing a couple of threads each day really makes a progress, and suddenly the quilt is finished. This is my “Aunt Sarahs quilt”. Pattern from an old Quiltmania magazine. I am so happy with this quilt. A lot of handquilting, but it was worth it. I got the look I wanted.
