Have you met Kurt?
Kurt is a bag pattern which is so variable from very simple to absolutely stunning and it is free! By Fabelwald. Though the freebook is in German, it is so easy to follow with the pictures that it doesn’t matter if you do not speak German.

But as children often take to much food on their plate so I buy too many designs and then I am overwhelmed with all my ideas. Therefore I am so thankful for FruBlomgrens little contests. Through the frame she sets with the contests my block dissolves and I start stitiching again.

Officially we have spring for the last 10 days. Therefore I took our winter garden flag down even though I haven’t started on the spring flag yet.

This night it was time again for setting the clock to summertime. Even though the Europeans voted in autumn 2018 to give this habit up. But the politicians do not have any plans to do so this year. Let’s hope for a change soon.
