a litle bag

...by guidelines from Timotei http://timotei-timotei.blogspot.com/ this beatify little bag came out today :D a first little creature with my new (old) Huskvarna Viking. I feel like i am becoming better at sewing. and i like so much. so much relaxing and extremely nice to enjoy the final result

scarf

it took me a whole morning to make this, and I am very very happy with the result. It is not a rocket science to sew it. It is a pleasure to wear it. now I feel ready for what fall brings. and funny enough, thou i was speaking over 10 years English, I have still to translate many words from other languages, as it feels like I don't remember it as well any more. I hope to "blog" more in the future, so language would improve as well.

a litle pouch for GPS

it is also my first quilting work. Been working on this project for quite some days and also have learned, that all i need is to measure before cutting and decide before it is not too late. it is a very sweet pouch, a little bit unequal, what gives it even more charm :D
funny enough my sewing machine didn't brake down, thou it was close to it. and i have broken at least 3 needles. I think next time it will not be so thick material. I want to go for a thin cotton. and the next project of mine is a patch worked pillow 60x90 cm. I think it will be great. At least my bed is missing it.

Berlin

Great great Berlin :)

Patchwork and sewing

I am so much attracted by sewing and looking at the pictures of patchwork, that had no time to update my blog. i already made a nice blouse and now sewing a overall in flowers. also looking forwards for my new kit for patchwork, and then I will try something. Pictures to follow. Have a nice evening! hugs, Asta

A new old
I was decorating my chairs in the dining room, as it has to be lighter and more comfortable for the times, when we eat dinner together, or when I enjoy my breakfast. it is sewed one nice day some time ago and I am pretty happy about the result. It looks like this:

I should probably mention, that the chairs and the material for them are from ikea.
What do you think?
Have a nice day!

Earings- made by me

Some new fun things come out of my handwork, as it is seen in the picture. I am very happy about them and all silver 925 :D
Love it! Asta

orhide

...it has been a long time since the last post. If for 5 months ago we said, that now it is a lot of time for reeding the books and doing hobbies at home, so now this period is already gone and the only wish is to spend as much as possible time outside, enjoy the sun light and warmth.
this day in Copenhagen is extremely nice and therefore nice to know that the spring is already here! Have a nice day everybody!
Hugs, Asta

Christmas at home

So this is Christmas and what have you done?!
Great this year! I definitely can feel Christmas atmosphere and today it even have started snowing. I don't know if it can be more wonderful!!!

I should start with the message, that I live in Scandinavia and am crazy about this great white design. But like making things myself and I like them even more, as it is original.

some cosy Christmas decorations from home

I am still not an expert blogger, but trying all my best. some elements in my window. I am ready for meeting the Christmas!

Then i was out and shopping and found these sweetest angels:

Light is also very important to me. i bought these candle lights at søstrene grenes. They produce a cosy light and are some of my favourite ones.

it is cosy it is sweet. been out for some shopping and found these sweet angels :D

My new hand made vest

Today I can celebrate my new hand made cosy and sweet vest! I took way too long to make it thou it is great :D and the material for it is ICELAND løve garn. One more new thing to my collection.




Have added something. Is it seen in the pictere?

Pillows for decoration

Just finally managed to sew these sweet pillows from flax bought at Lithuania. Even it is winter now, it gives a little bit of spring atmosphere at home. Birds and flowers is one of my favorite.

New computer place. More space and cosiness

Can be used for many different things, like e.g. putting my all chains and etc, as well as most important books and my fantastic almost home made mirror :D

It looked like this before: I like it much better now!
Have a great evening.

My newest hand made armband. after checking a bit on the internet I understood that this year everyone has got at least one of these armbands. But still I like it very much and plan to make few of them.
And it was done:

everything will be white soon

before after

...not much to say, as usually, things get white at some point

Hand made nice thing

Today I got a bit inspired about making things beautiful and what went out of it is seen in the picture. At least me and my mobile phone are very happy about the result:

Now some days have passed since I have it and it is still my favorite thing.
