Say it with flowers, It's my day :-)

Finally it's my day.......

Many thanks to Mdm Samm http://www.sewwequilt.com/ and Carol http://justletmequilt.blogspot.se/ 
for organizing this hop for us.
Carol's day was 27th.(yesterday) and mdm Samm is always the last one,
on the 4th. of June.
Don't forget to visit their blogs....


Who can resist flowers. I took some pictures in front of my house yesterday.

A rowan who planted itself  in one of my flowerpots, some years ago.
This is the first time it's blooming

A Geranium I had on my balcony for years

and a newly planted Spanish daisy,

OBS,,,,, no flower, but who can resist ?



Anyway, when I entered this hop I had no idea of what to make.
Suddenly it cleared, and I started to work.
Some time ago when I was visiting my mother ( now 86 years ), I had to change a curtain fabric into some cushions, and got a lot of fabric left over. Promised my mother to make something with it.
First I made a pattern for a handbag, and then one for a PC-cover.

And here you can see the result:


Pockets with zipper, and without, inside.



And the PC cover....
Easy to put in a bigger bag when travelling....


Before I sewed it together. You can see its pockets on both sides. One big  in  the middle for papers, and on the right side it's 4 smaller one's for visit cards, and other important stuff.

And finally, a quilt in progress; its my BOM from ÖQ, http://oresundsquiltarna.blogspot.se/ from 2011, in quilting, at last. :-)




Simple as that!

And so to my fellow hoppers of today. Don't miss them!!
