Late night ideas... very late... :o)

Do you have nights like this too.. 
waking up and having at least for that moment..the GREATEST IDEA??? 

Have had some awake nights this week.. 
coughing and having ideas...:o)
Well.. this idea ... 
started out with me
test sewing with my new machine...
seam after seam ....lots of them.. 
But couldnt waste it once sewed...
looked kind of pretty...

Then I remembered this...

And looked at this when I got up in the morning...
and decided to make a new one..
where no webbing is.. no black spots.. that rubs off on white...

And this is my new ironingplace... :o)

Made from the test piece.. where lots and lots of seams are sewn with my new machine...
still have lots to test...
but for now I am pleased...

But Stina a white one...
a white one.. yepp.. 
one thing is good.. 
no patterns to disturb my eye when working on the ironingboard.. 
you see I do that all the time..
And  oh yes it will be burnt in no time..
but I dont care.. I have a pretty white ironingboard.. for now.... :o)
Hmm.. maybe I have to make a little cover for it..lol...

Otherwise days are tough like syrup..
Fever is coming and going ...
BLAHHHH...

I did it!!!

Ok.. lets try and get a feeling here..
play the music please.. :o))
if it aint working.. just skip it and read on...
(works in firefox..not to well in Safari.. Internet explorer I dont know)
it might take awhile to load.. sorry for that!!






ok ok.. 

first a guessing... whats missing at my sewing table...
are you listening to the music??? ;o)

Hmmm.... some of you have already guessed...
 some might have missed the photo at my last post...

Ok what in the world have it to do with the song 
SUNNY...

Well it´s all because of this...

May I present..
"Zonnie" (Sunny).. :o))

I finally did it!!!
So just like that.. 
all of a sudden

I was with machine..:O))

But oh my
I am not quite sure IF I HAVE made the right choice ...
but all felt so good when I test sewed at the quiltmeeting...

And I packed it up on Friday night ( FINALLY) ...
hard to see the box standing there all week!!!
(hectic week and a wonderful and nice cold 
kept me away from all things in the sewingroom... )
and I HAD to take away some CLUTTER first!!!

Had the best helper in the world.. Viktor...
oh he worked hard...fixing that all the feet came to the right place.. and he was like a paparazzi too.. taking lots of photos...

On Saturday it was finally time for some test sewing... 
only me and Viktor at home..
Lars had to go alone on tennis camp...
oh that was hard for him... 
you see Viktor had to stay at home because he to had a cold!
So it became a mother and son weekend instead of father and son weekend!!

And what a testdrive my Zonnie had to put up with..
thick thick layers of UGLY wool..lol
But we worked everything out.. 
but boy do I feel like beginner at sewing or what!! lol

So see you .. with finished pictures of the UGLY wool piece!!
Finally got it in the mail today
.....
Humming.... :o)

for you that couldn´t listen.. we listend to 
Sunny by Bobby Hebb and cover by Airto....

"Zonnie, yesterday my life was filled with rain.
Zonnie, you smiled at me and really eased the pain.
The dark days are gone, and the bright days are here,
My Zonnie one shines so sincere.
Zonnie one so true, I love you."
