we will see after this post is made..
comments seems to be working again..
but the post with the secret little peek...cant be commented on...
and I don't know whats wrong with it...
Just happy it is working again...
This is what Kimberly writes about her new ruler:· It works perfectly with Jelly Rolls, Honey Buns, Charm Squares, Layer Cakes and Turnovers.
· It allows you to make cuts fast and accurately. I designed it so you can cut basic units such as squares, rectangles and triangles from 1½” and 2½” strips, and 5” and 10” squares!
· The ruler has two-colors which makes the markings easy-to-see and easy-to-use. The mint green “highlight” lines denote the most commonly used sizes from precut fabric strips and squares.
· There are no 1/8” lines on the ruler; only ¼”, ½” and whole inch markings make viewing clear and uncluttered.
· It’s just plain fun to use!
So with the help of this ruler..
I might be able to finally get a cut or two in my Jellys, Charms and Layer cakes!!! 
Thankyou so much Kimberley!!!!
A while ago my best friend Louise went to USA...
and of course I had to make a little wish list of things I "needed"...
or wanted.. or whatever... 
This weekend three of my DH´s tennis friends went to Östersund for tennismatches...
and quickly I asked if they could pick up a little package for me there...
Happily ( or not..that I don´t know..) they agreed!!
Louise was very kind to deliver it to them...
And late last night I got it!!!
Have wanted this book for a very long time ago..Love Blackbird Designs .. and this book was just wonderful..
The list also contained plain white fabric...
very pale fabrics in yellow, pink and blue...
They are lovely Louise!!!
And the Dresden Ruler... hooray...
finally I might be able to try out to make Tumblers and
Dresdens!!!
Thankyou so much Louise...
for carrying these for me on quiltshows...
and thinking a little bit extra for me ..not being there to see all the lovely things !!!
Over and out from a windy and cold Sweden...
Where is Summer???
(Ohh..please let the comment thing work this time too!!!!)
Congrats on your lovely ruler and quilty thing! I soo wanted to leave a comment on your sneak peek yesterday...gorgeous...can't wait to see what it is!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what your sneak peek is from yesterday.
ReplyDeleteYour friend Louise is a sweetheart for picking up the goodies from your 'wish' list. She's a keeper, for sure! Enjoy them all!
Lovely new quilty things :o) Now the post is back... sorry to get you confused. It was strange... I was reading it, then it was gone, and now it is back again. Oh well! Seems to be in working order now :o)
ReplyDeleteOh lucky you, both on the win and the gorgeous fabrics.
ReplyDeleteOh wonderful goodies that's for sure. So nice to get things from your 'wish list'!!!
ReplyDeleteWin, win, win....you are one lucky girl! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you finally got the "stuff".
Take care of your fingers and sew a little each day!
Summer will come, but until then we can stay indoors without feeling guilty!
I have a quilt prepped from The Cold Wind Blows.
ReplyDeleteStina, can you tell us what makes you so lucky on these wins!
Congratulations on your ruler win! Let us know how it works! And lovely things Louise brought you (O: Have a lovely week.
ReplyDeleteAh, she who gives shall receive, this must be the reason for the treasures that come your way, Stina. Nothing like a really useful ruler! And a long sought after book comes home to roost. All very nice ~ helps warm you when the weather refuses to!! We have a chilly and cloudy day here again too. Summer will certainly arrive and probably in full humidity and heat all at once much like winter's arrival last year.
ReplyDeleteStina, I am about to put up the When the Cold Wind Blows in my Etsy shop...I love this book too! Congrats on the ruler win. Do you know if she sells these to the public? It sounds as if we all need one. I am glad you got your blog thing fixed. Take care, Elaine from Texas
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your BBD book, I know you love it! :-)
ReplyDeleteP.S. I love your header picture, it's very beautiful.
Great new quilting notions and such! What a wonderful friend you have for shopping for you too. Don't worry, summer hasn't seemed to arrive hear either. A little chilly for this time of the year.
ReplyDeleteI have that book & love it...enjoy!
ReplyDeleteYummy fabrics too...I love my dresden ruler...hope you have fun with yours!
It's too bad when comments doesn't work. Your secret project looks so nice, but your things are always done so well :)
ReplyDeleteI have been looking for this book too!!!! But I guess I have to order it on some bookstore because I haven't seen it in any shope nearby. They are so "lazy" getting new books to the stores right now :(
Jammen har du vinner lykke Stina :-) Postmann har en fast kunde der. Så nydelige stoffer Loisa har sendt...gleder meg til å se de blir skåret opp og tryllet med. Her kom sommeren i dag :-)
