Napp holders,


Today I took bit time to sew again. Made 2 napp holders. Would had made more, but I just had 2 rings, so, now I have to buy some more before I can do more napp holders. Will see, perhaps in Christmastime, when I am going home and planning to visit handcraft shop, I will also find some more different ribbons. Mostly the ones I have right now, is or boys. Only those two ribbons in my opinion will suit more for girls as well.
If you want to have something like that, when just mail me or contact me through homepage

Finally I got it,


Today I can say, that finally I got my new endless hoop. Since I changed my sewing machine, I could not use the endless embroidery hoop I had, since it did not fit for my Pfaff Creative machine.
In spring did Pfaff came out with new Grand Endless Embroidery Hoop. That time I was between two choices, should I have that one or older one, what is bit smaller endless hoop. Since Pfaff given out some nice endless embroidery patterns what only fits to Grand Endless Embroidery Hoop, when my decision was made. Now I also can start to make my own lace :) Will be nice and good. Just need some more free time now as well :)
Together with my new hoop, I also got my new embroidery pattern card. This time it was the one, what I had ordered before. Lucky me, I got it :) Embroidery pattern card 203 Special Techniques Butterflies :) Will be nice to use it before summer :) Soon, very soon ;) Have already some good ideas :)

Another pattern what I had ordered and got today is also from Insipras new collection. That card is Cross stitch borders.  Feels good to try that as well. Have to just wait some more days until I can order in dealers inspiration evening an endless hoop, so I can start to use my endless patterns as well :)

Knitted scarf,



Last night, I tried to took my nervousness away by doing  some nice handwork. Since I had mother who made all nice knitting work for me before, when now after her death, I have shop to buy.
In the end of September, I was in Borås in handcraft fair, when I bought one different type of yarn for scarf. After I did finish it, I started to like it and decided to make some for sale. First one is done now :)

Baby blanket,

Blanket with plain fleece fabric.

Another thing I made today was two different baby blankets from fleece. The fleece is same, but one of them has even the cotton fabric on the other side.

Fleece blanket with cotton fabric in under neath.
 Blankets can be used everywhere, since they are warm and soft.
Fleece blanket with cotton fabric in under neath.
Blankets can be made different colors and shape. Same goes for fabric in under neath.

Pillow case,


Today after all my things in town was done and I had been out with my dog, I started to sew again after I had a small break of it. First thing I did today was 2 pillow cases for our pillows, since they are bit bigger than usually. Our main pillows are 65x65 cm and normally they are 50x60 cm. So, I decided to make my own, since when I also could do them bit more personal and that no one else has similar ones.


Fabric I used i cotton and I embroidered on - Good night, Sleep well. Hopefully I will have good night sleep today on it :)


If you want your own pillow cases, when just mail me and you can have your own personal pillow case:)

Personal bath towel,


In last week, after I had made my small facebook page for my handwork, I also got one order for personal bath towels. The size for towels are 60x130 cm. In picture it is hard to see, but they are pink color towels. In each towel I used different multi-color thread, since I think that it gives very nice effect and looks something different than usually :)
Would you like to order as well nice towel, when just feel free to contact me. Have a nice evening.
