Last post on an old address

Due to some minor/major indifferences between Blogger and Apple, this old site was suddenly impossible to update with pictures. So here’s to a new site, new address, same writer.

This old blog will remain as an archive – and links are up from there to here – and vice versa.

So if you’d like to see new posts, please come on over to Jacobs-quilt and find me there – welcome!

are a saying going like this : Christmas last untill 

Easter... so I'm aaaalmost not lazy at all... LOL

This Easter as the last years I spend in Oslo,and there

it was flowers and green gras,at home it is still winter. Now I can start

to dream about flowers at home to,not just iceroses... 

During the white winter time I have been playing with colours.

I never miss colours so mutch in winter time as this year.

I feel it has been all white,white snow,white trees ,white sky....

Beautifull yes, but soooo boring. 

It was so fun to make this  Dredsen Neighborhood pattern by 

Kim Lapacek.

More colour playing ,had to try it twice,a pattern from a Norwegian 

Magazine named Frargeglad løper. 

I also had to make this IPad cover. Here you can see 

how the trees looks like.. white,white,white...
