I read. I usually read on the train to work and in bed - and whenever I can. That is to say - when I’m not sewing, knitting, crotcheting or listening to podcasts… or doing housework (but I try not to do that…).
I now only read books on my Iphone. Tried that yet? I love […]
A pencil case for Jenny and Emily. I did Emilys first as a trial and learned a couple of things, but I am definitly going to make more of these.
Here is my new sewing room.
And behind the blinds I can store everything - and that’s just what I do!!
Where the bed is standing we are […]
We’ve been living here for two weeks plus now and we’re loving it. It’s everything we hoped for and more… just need to sell our wonderful apartment. We had 7 great years there and until this house showed up it was our dream home. Now we’re waiting for someone else having that same feeling.

I’m sorry a new update isn’t coming just yet. We’ve just moved and the only thing I’ve made the last few weeks were new curtains for Jenny. As soon as “my room” is furnished and decorated I’ll post pictures.

Here you can see me crocheting while waiting for my pizza. My yarn and […]
I don’t know if that is a word, however we went to Rottneros Park in Sweden and in additon to the beautiful garden there were many areas where kids could play. At first I didn’t see them as they blended beautifully with the forrest.
Who wouldn’t want to live in a house like this?
Here you can […]
My girls got a playhouse from my father. We’re staying in his house as part of our summer holiday. It’s great fun, lots of relaxation and the girls can do so many things on their own. My small contribution was sewing the curtains.
Here you see Emily preparing coffee and tea (for me as I don’t […]
Grete has finally gotten around to writing her own blog. And you should visit it, and make a comment. Why? Because she knows about everything there is to know about knitting, and she has written this wonderful knitting book called “Varmekilder” filled with wonderful hats, scarves, mittens and the most wonderful socks.
