Easter table setting,


Easter is almost over and I have had time to finish my Easter table setting. Have made new rings for napkins and place mats with Easter motives. Motive for place mats comes from Inspira newest collection " Easter Friends".  Napkin ring is already known from my last years makings, since I made them also for our wedding dinner table and all our guests could take theirs with them as a memory from our wedding day. Napkin ring comes from Husqvarnas embroidery design card nr: 215.

Here is pictures from my Easter table setting:

Waiting for Spring,


...and I hope that soon it will be here. In Wednesday will Spring arrive even officially and I do hope that it will be again nice weather for that, as it has been already so far. Except today perhaps, since it has been rained and been windy and cold. On the other hand, that is also needed. It is so nice to see how grass is going green and soon leaves will come on the trees. It is a wonderful time.
In our home, but also outside seems spring to arrive and I must admit, I really like it. Can't wait, until all is green, it will be warm outside and that just can enjoy time outside with Sally and cup of coffee.


Those nice tulips partly I have bought self and the red/green ones, I did got yesterday from my husband. Sometimes it is worth to be winy :D When you will get some flowers. Like it.

Beautiful Candle Crowns,


Past 5 weekends, we have made candles with other members from Lions Club in Jönköping. That is one of the biggest income for our club, so that we could help people, who really needs to be helped.
Those candle crowns are on sale after summer, but can also be bought earlier. Today we could see, that it does not has to be used only in Christmas time. It is also a beautiful present on birthday.
This nice arrangement was made for a person who turned 100 years. I believe it has been wonderful to receive something very nice and simple. It does not have to be very expensive to be nice.
All those nice candle crowns are handmade. Everyone has put inside to them bit of their soul, so that not only we can enjoy it, but also so many others.
Last year sale, took in about 170 thousand Swedish crowns, what will go to help others.
if you feel, that you would help us to help others, just contact our club or your local lions club.

Summer bag,


Yesterday evening, it was time for visit again an inspiration evening in one of our local sewing- and embroidery machine dealer. My new machine comes also from there.
Every one else made yesterday decorations for easter, me and my friend, we had own plans.
Last month, when  I was there, I saw that the person, who holds those courses, had nice summer bag, what she had sewed in quilting technique. Sine I like quilting technique as well, I have wanted to learn long time to learn to sew bags. So, we agreed, that this time, I can do it and I did it :)
Now, I can make more bags. This one is just a try, but, there will be more and different ones on the way :)
