The first Sunday in Advent

The snow is falling and we have some relaxing houres before the dinner.I visited the handicraft market.So much people and so much inspiration.A friend og mine was selling this little glass to have a candle in.Lovely silence.

I wish you all a peaceful time.

Saturday morning

Saturday morning and the white fresh snow brighten up the day.This weekend we are going to meet some friends and hopefully I also get some stitching time.This time a year I make some small Cristmas gifts so I'm not going to post any pictures from my Santa sewing room.Tomorrow we lit the first of four candles.Now we have 4 weeks until Christmas.Have a nice weekend.

Inspired of the glowing colours from the autumn leaves and the surrounding in sun dawn.A great joy to use colours I love but also try a new way of doing blocks.I made squares about 6" and put together f ex 5 fabrics and cut them all together in a special pattern-I made them in 3 parts "along" and then I cut them in 3 parts across.At last I combined the pieces in sifferent combinations and.....sew them together.In reality the quilt is darker .This quilt was so funny to do.

Snow and Embroidery

Today it's the first day with snowfall this autumn/winter and it's only a thin cover of snow in the garden.I couldn't resist taking a photo of the last 2 small cross stitch I have made the last week.Enjoy them.

A pair of Socks and thousands of candles on the graveyard

Hello all

The cold times are here and we have -9C and a sunshine in the middle of the day.
So happy I have knitted a pair of socks during October.Socktober.A great idea to do something before the snow and the coldness comes.

Today I also visited the graveyard and we put candles on the graves of our relatives.It'was candles on nearly every grave and it'so so lovely to see.It'a a day of rememberence of our dead friends and family members.A very special day.It's a day of sorrow but aslo a day full of memories and silence.
