Two out of Three...

...PIF gifts is in their new homes...
The third one is waiting for some handquilting and ..I´m so sorry Jo... sorry that its beeing delayed... but I´m working on your PIF a little day by day... so eventually it will be on its way to Tasmania!! :)

The first one I sent to Italy...
I made a wallhanging from Anni Downs book "Simple Pleasures" and also a little bookmark... I loved to make the stitcheries and the patchwork... so fun to make!! I enjoyed it a lot!!
Have to make one for myself too...
Ok..Italy.. and the reciver is Laura...
...so glad she liked my little gift for her...

The second one ...travelled to USA...
And her I had to trick a little...cause if I said that this was a PIF gift ( and not a wallhanging for me) she would have known it was for her... ;)
Sorry!!! :)
...The Pumkins ...Crows Quilt did land at Colleens doorstep the other day ...
And I´m so glad she was surprised ...and happy!! :)

No sewing for me today... but I cleaned up some mess in the sewingroom... :)
so hopefully there will be a little sewing one day...
think I will test a little tonight...have a cellphone case to make for my middle daughter...
its just a little thing ..and not so much cutting involved...so I´ll cross my fingers for it to work just fine...

Been at the doctor today ...and I will stay at home for another week...
She had a long talk about my overmobile joints...and it might be this that is causing my problems with the fingers... So no hard work...not lift anything heavy...and no repetitive work...and that doesn´t sound toooo bad .... :)
I hope...

  4. Love both the PIF's! You know I adore mine :o) Glad the report from your doctor is positive! Take good care...don't overdo it... maybe you need to work at a quilt shop teaching! That wouldn't hurt the hand too much, right?

  6. OMG Stina, what great PIF gifts you sent. I can't believe you could let the fall one go. That's a true quilter, always giving. Hope your fingers get well soon, I just went today to the Dr. and she put me on high blood pressure pills. I really feel better already. Gotta get busy, I'm going to post some items I've made for the tree.
    Keep stitchen'
