                                                          Dear Lazy Gal friends!!
I hope that everybody out there has had a fantastic summer! All those who live in the northern most part of the world have had summer vacation now. Here in Scandinsvia-read Oslo, Norway- schools started up again 2-3 weeks ago, after many weeks of vacation. The bright summer is about to let go and we are again about to get darker nights. But that means, yes, that again I can start with my favorit hobby-quilting.

Now I´m done with my two projects in Liberated Quilting. I am pleased with how I have solved it. The quilting went a little fast. I should have had more appropriate thread. I have spent a lot of fabric that are self colored. A great way to make use of them. I have enjoyed participating in this project. So thank you Tonya, which has hosted it.  I will maybe participate in the next project!!
Have a nice weekend, quilt greetings from Anne:-)

My second!!

Hi!! Anne, Oslo, Norway here!!  At last, my second top is ready for quilting!!  I think I`m going to machinequilt it myself. I have had a lot of fun with this one too!!  I realy enjoy this way to saw.....Not need to think 1/8 inch measurement. And to play with the colors.... Love it!!

I`ve started my second!!

Hello again!! Oslo calling!! The winter-weather here in Oslo this weekend was perfect for staying within doors, sewing!! Windy, snowing, -10`C.......

My plan was to make a Lone Star-paper piecing.... but I found that not very liberating.....I got my book!! Liberated Quiltmaking II, and it realy make sense to me!! I think this way to make quilts match my personality. So this quilt above is my inspiration......

Cutting a lot of strips.

This turned out to be more Log Cabin than Crazy Quilt.

So that it would be quick to sew, I made the cain.

This is so far I have come.... but there is still plenty to do. Anne:-)

My first top!!

This callenge has been really liberating!! How to work with solid fabric, it is seldom I do. Some time ago I took a class in dyeing of fabrics, and this project is perfect to use any of them. I have an idea about how to quilt too.

I have also ordered Libereted quiltmaking 2, so I can read more about the subject. I was planing to start a Lone Star, but I have changed, but I will tell you later..... I also enjoy what you people are doing!!

Have a nice Sunday, Valentines day, Mothers day( here in Norway) and watch the Olympics day........ Anne:-)

Hello everyone!!

Hi, I`m Anne, or Quiltefia, Oslo, Norway. I`m so happy with joining this group!! My choise in first place, got to be, 060.Roman Stripes. I know there is several quilters with this one, but I think it is good to start with. I wish to make a Lone Star Quilt in bright colours too. Luckely I had some solid fabric in my stash!! This is the result of yesterday and todays work. I think it turned out well. After making 9 blocks, I had to bring in one more fabric. Now I will start to make the borders around.

We have such lovely winther weather here in Oslo now, so I took some time to cross-country ski today with a friend... By from now- Anne:-)
