Peeking in to say hello! My days are filled with kids, sewing, food making and attempts to enjoy the beautiful Summer weather. I'm trying not to freak out and to focus on enjoying it all. Starting on Friday I have a show in the town Porvoo together with 9 other local crafters. It will last for the month of July. We call it Peonies and weeds, I got the honour to design the poster :) I will have it printed today, crossing fingers that it will look good!
Everyone has been working with the theme colours pink and lime combined with white/natural colours and lace. I can't wait to see what everyone has come up with! I will make sure to bring my camera on Friday and show you the result!
I made a baby quilt from new and vintage fabrics for the exhibit. I also used some of my own apple fabric! I am working on a lap quilt too, I wonder if I'll finish it in time... Probably not.
Now off to feed the kiddos and then sort out a way to make them entertain themselves in my workspace!
I hope you are all happy and relaxed!
I love these colours!

Tack Ann-Lis! De ringde igår från Loftet i Vasa och frågade om jag vill ha julutställning där, jag sa ja förstås! Så snart får jag göra en till affisch! xKajsa

I love the colours in the quilt! The poster is also lovely. I can see it also as a cushion...
Have a wonderful summer!

Oh, Kajsa! That poster is a beautiful -and so elegant - way to make people aware of the exhibition. I'm sure that it will make people very interested in seing more. If I were in Finland I would definitely come - twice. :))
I'm so amazed by the quilt, too. You are indeed a master at putting fabrics together. The colours and prints are so happy and lovely. I just love green and pink together...
Have a wonderful day today and on Friday. I will look forward to seing photos from the exhibition. :))
