Quilting idea

I do have a nice bunch of hand dyed fabrics in black and grey shades. Tonight, sitting on my balcony I remembered that a couple of month ago I have made a handy cover for my mobile phone. It was just a trial and I do not use it very much because the fabric is quite heavy. But these fabrics are thinner and would just fit perfect for the same purpose. What do you think? Now I will think of a nice pattern...


Dinner

Cold temperatures required a tasty, filling meal tonight! Double cutted lamb racks covered with a salsa made of mustard, honey and freshly chopped peppermint. Oven-baked potatoes and courgette were the perfect garnishes.


Olkhon

Very special island in the biggest, deepest and oldest lake of the world - Lake Baikal in Siberia!!!


Russian Quilt

Even in very basic hostels there were some quilts on the beds. Very welcomed in the cool russian nights!!


Lake Constance Quilt Festival


Italian Holiday

Two weeks in Italy and almost two weeks of bad weather. But on the other side we enjoyed the gorgeous countryside, great food, fantastic wine and the nice accomodation...I keep looking at that fabulous TiramiSu all covered with coffee-tasting-whipped-cream and my inner voice keeps telling me that now I really need to go for a couple of jogs;-)
