My very good friend Hanne,from Norway (Hei hei Hanne) has a fabulous quilt shop called Lappedilla, and thanks to her I have a subscription to a Norwegian quilt magazine, "Quilemagasinet". Hopefully once I've got the hang of this blogging lark I'll be able to add a link to her shop - oh, by the way, Lappedilla is on facebook if you want to head over there - and she has a great website. This table runner was in the last issue of Quiltemagasinet, and is designed by AnnAKa - I'm really pleased with how it has turned out, even though it invoved rather alot of machine quilting!! Before any of you ask, no I don't read or speak Norwegian, but with the help of Hanne and Eva (Hei hei Eva) - I have managed to pick up a few words. This runner was made entirely with me just looking at the diagrams!!! Hanne has emailed me to say that another parcel is on it's way to me, and includes the latest issue of this magazine, and some of AnnAKa's latest patterns. Can't wait for that parcel to arrive - it'll keep me out of mischief - and if my friend Heather is reading this she'll be saying "that's a first"!!

I read it!! This is looking really good now, I've just been told that more sewing = less blogging! It'll be the other way round for you if you're not careful!! See you soon X
