Beans all over the place

The day to spill the beans about my work work is finally here ‘cause I received this on Friday.

It’s the first copy of a book for me to proof read! My book! A book filled with my quirky quilts! You see, I won a book contract with Cappelen Damm almost a year ago which came with a very strict confidentiality clause so now I have proof that I actually can keep a secret. Oh man, the secret keeping thing was hard. The book will be out in the beginning of May, and will be launched in the crafting book club, Hobbybokklubben.


For now it’s all in Norwegian, but you know, hard core black metal fans do learn Norwegian at universities in Italy to better understand the music, so well, I’m just saying.


Now that the book finally was here on paper right in front of me, I couldn’t even open the package because grandson was staying with me and I knew I would get sucked right in and get no sleep at all.


Instead we (he) have been making a mother days card for his mom. You can see all the love that was put into this.

We also found time to make some beaded beauties; beading is one of our favorite things to do together. I love the fun conversations that come with sitting together like that.

Now grandson has been picked up and I’ve got paper all over the place. My book-paper.

Have a wonderful week; you all know what I’ll be doing.-)
