World Blog Hop

I was invited by Vera Holmblad to participate in this World Blog Hop.She has a story worth to read and above all take a look at the fantastic job she has done with things from her great grandmother.Take a look into her world http://veriquilt.blogspot.com I´ve passed the questions to three quilters and I´ll let you know if they are able to participate.

What am I doing right now?

As we are approaching December some of my works are connected to Christmas.Started with this stichery last year,but too late,so now I´m back and hopefully I´ll finish it.We may see......
These works,which aren´t ready yet, are for our grandchildren,the boys Lucas & Loke.The girls,Emelie & Alva got angels.
The tumbling blocks hasn´t got a final date.I often interrupt with new or old projects.I do what I feel for the moment.

Why do I create what I do?

I know that a lot of my creativity I´ve to THANK my grandmother for.She taught me how to knit,crochet(I´ve been told that I was 6, when I made my first mittens.Remember them as yellow)and she taught me how to weave.Later in my life I also bought a loom and we have spent many hours together.Not to forget she ´pushed me´ to start to sew clothes and believe,this has been a GREAT PART of my life.She´s always around me in one way or another. Lots of THANKS to you for taking your time to visit me in my sewing room. Hope you´ll soon be back.

ÄNTLIGEN är jag klar med överkastet ..... FINALLY I'm ready with the bedspread .....

Började för många år sedan med detta överkast, men under årens gång så har det blivit avbrott för många andra trevliga projekt.Den ljusa sida, baksidan som jag kallar den, får tillhöra sommaren. Started many years ago with this bedspread, but during the years it has been interrupted by many other nice projects.The light side, backside I call it, belongs to the summer.
Hjärtat är för min underbara man och de fyra små hjärtana symboliserar kärleken till våra barnbarn. The heart is for my wonderful husband and the four small hearts symbolic the love to our grandchildren.
Vårt hem och våra kära barn, Johan & Jessica. Our home and our beloved children, Johan & Jessica.
Denna bild tillägnas våra mysiga katter. This 'picture' is for our cosy cats.
Den här teckningen gjorde Johan när han var 5 år och teckningen under gjorde hans barn när dom var i samma ålder. Johan made this drawing when he was 5 years old and the drawing below is made of his children when they had the same age.

Den här teckningen gjorde Jessica när hon var 5 år och teckningen under gjorde hennes barn när dom var i samma ålder.Jessica made this drawing when she was 5 years old and the drawing below is made of her children when they had the same age.
