I finished the small stitchery for my toiletry purse and the stitchery for the sewing bag - it took about 2 hours altogether.As you see I started another NI block and is about half done.
It is time to call it a day - tomorrow is another day!
Today is Fastelavn - the last Sunday before Lent, and 40 days before Easter. Traditionally we have Fastelavn wheat buns with cream then, but since I am not a big cream fan I made wheat buns with saffron and raisins.
Served with Coffee Chocolate - yummy!
I hope there is a wheat bun left for me to enjoy with my lunch coffee tomorrow too :-)
Talk about busy lady....well done.
ReplyDeleteNice stitchery. I really like all your red and white blocks. The quilt is going to be stunning.
ReplyDeleteThe stitchery is very pretty. I am imagining what all those triangles will make for the insane quilt!
ReplyDeleteI love either of the buns you mentioned, and I hope there is one left for your lunch tomorrow!
we're going to have pancakes tomorrow - traditionally on Shrove Tuesday - the last day before Lent starts...
ReplyDeleteVery pretty stitchery! and very pretty bread..Yum!
ReplyDeleteI never thought I'd want to do stitchery. But the time spend here reading your blog makes me want to reconsider... so now I only need to find an easy enough project to start on, and then I need to practise my sewing skills. Your stitcheries are beautiful!
ReplyDelete(If anyone has any suggestion as to where to look for a simple how-to on stitches, I would be grateful!)
Hanne,
ReplyDeleteI love to read your blog and I have two favours to ask of you, if you have time.
Firstly, could you tel me where the pattern came from for the threadcatcher - I have a very close friend who is moving to another country and would like to make one for her as a welcome gift when she arrives there.
Secondly, could you please share with me your family recipe for pate - it looks delicious.
Thank you,
Barbara Johnstone
So glad I found your blog. The stitchery is just beautiful and the buns remind me of those my grandma used to make. Enjoy the day!
