Swallowtale

Swallowtale by Evelyn A Clarke.

I added some small glass beads.

Girls night

Here's the table just before my guests arrived last night.

And here's another treasure from next door. A set of birch side tables. Look at the beautiful details.

New bedroom furniture

My next door neighbour passed away a few months ago. Her relatives have been clearing out the house since. And they are getting rid of so many beautiful things. Like this bedroom furniture that I rescued. On the back of the bedside tables there's a label telling that they were made by a local carpenter.

Some new fabric and some lavender bags in each drawer, and the bedroom makover is complete.

New rewersable totes

I've made two rewersable totes from som new denim and some old curtains. The totes have one open pocket and one zipped pocket on the denim side.

Jeg har sydd to nye vendbare vesker av ny dongeri og en gammel gardin. Veskene har to lommer på dongeri siden. Den ene lommen har glidelås. Veskene er til salgs for 200 kr + porto.

Send en mail til sol(alfakrøll)stensland.no dersom du er interessert i å kjøpe en.

I can't stop

I can't stop knitting shawls. Here's what I've been knitting the last cople of months.


Fountain Pen Shawl by Susan Pierce Lawrence



Cobweb Crepe Shawl by Sharon Miller


And of course my all time favourite: Flower Basket Shawl by Evelyn A. Clarke.

Off my frame

This quilt came off my frame today. A customer made this lovely rose quilt.

I quilted it with this rose pattern that is one of my favourites.

The quilt pattern is called "turning twenty". I think I might have to try it out too.

For the sweet tooth

Coockies and fruit pate from a pâtisserie in Nice. Yummy!
