<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">First of all, have a great idea! .....</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> requires some inspiration and thoughts.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Then...Make a sketch and pattern! ....now it's starting to look like something.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">BUT!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What color scale should I have ..... which fabrics? ... buy new?.. recycled? ....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> use old ones ? ... print? .. paint? .... color?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Headache!!!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Time!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">January...no hurry!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Februari...Start to think!...but no hurry!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Puuh!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well...it's funny but it always seems to be alright in the end despite all the concerns.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So...I'm sure that at least two quilts will be finished to the exhibition late august.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> my latest piece of work</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's my third quilt on the theme women.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Since I've been surrounded by pregnant women in the past year, it was an inspiring and natural theme.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Rikstäckets annual meeting took place in Sunderbyn, Luleå.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> I had the privilege to teach two classes. So fun! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">An exhibition with my quilts and Katarina Evens works were shown in the gallery.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> The exhibition lasted during Sunderbyn Craft week</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> Margareta Thelander also showed great quilts.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> along their own sketches and ideas. You all showed a lot of creativity!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It was a great room with a lot of light!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I showed eight quilts and Katarina Evens showed great clothes made of natural materials and with fine details and embroideries. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">She also works with recycling of materials which we quilters should use more than we do.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">That is how it was when the first quilts where made!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> I'm in the beginnig of using more of old fabrics and clothes.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This event took place in september and I had two classes.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Sew a chair is a class practicing to sew from a simple sketch without templates and specified dimensions. A sort of free manner to form a block, in this case a chair. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The ladies in my class managed to sew all these chairs!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> My second class considered how to transfer an image to fabric.The students worked concentrated to transfer their images to fabric using a kind of medium.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> An exciting project that does not always succeed based on the image and paper quality.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The sun is shining, sweat dripping and I sit indoors and sew. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That's nuts!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> But sometimes you have no choice, things must be done!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I apparently have at least a little character!!!!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This simple sketch is the start of my next project.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> As you may know, I have been surrounded by pregnant women in the past year and it leaves its marks....two newborn in the family this year!!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">...and my brain started to see a theme and plan a quilt!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> the desire to do other things takes over. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For example, playing with Selma, swim and enjoy the garden.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> long walks and good food.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I've bought loads of fabrics and I always wash them to get rid of some chemicals.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: start;"> I put up a clothing line in the garden because it was so nice weather. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Quilts for my grandchildren Aksel and Anton. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But before that, I'll start with a wall piece to be shown at an exhibition later this year.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> I tell you more about that later on.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hi there!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Finally....my quilt with coltsfoot is finished! It did take a while but what's the hurry? </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Big, important things happen!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Since my last post I've become a grandmother again. A little boy called Aksel.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> Who has the time to sew then?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">....but a small quilt to Aksel is in my mind!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Well...here is the quilt inspired during this lovely spring.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It started with a simple sketch and my longing for spring.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Snow falls in large amounts and </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">hides all signs of spring.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Just a little dripping from the ceiling!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's nice out there in the snow but it is also great to spend time in the studio.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> If spring is absent, it's nice to make something that remind me of spring.....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> and the first lovely flowers. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tussilago in Swedish and coltsfoot in English!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One of my favorites!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">all over the surface </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">to bring something more exciting to the</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> design.</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I want to show you how amazing beautiful it is in the Swedish mountains.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Last week I went with my siblings on skis four days in the mountains.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One of our goals was to climb a mountain called Sylarna in Jämtland.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had an unbelievable luck with the weather, sun from a clear blue sky and no wind.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The conditions were fantastic.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So..just go for it!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We first went on skis as far as possible and then changed to crampons</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> to climb the last part.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> It was very exciting and fun!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My first finish is a pillow! It isn't quilted, but stitched.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well... I like to do some different kinds of handicrafts sometimes</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> and embroidery is lots of fun.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> In the afternoon, I began to draw a pattern and sewed a block to see how it looks</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> and whether the technique works.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> I want to start the year with some inspiring new fabrics. I don't know yet what will become of them but it's great just to watch and combine them with other fabrics.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Finally my quilt Leaves is finished. It took a while!</span></div>
<div align="center">

<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: Arial;">It started about seven years ago!!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial;">It was my 50 th birthday and my dear friends took me to an artist in Uppsala.</span></div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: Arial;">We had a weekend learning how to work with glass.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> It is this stylized leaves that inspired me to start thinking of sewing a quilt.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> It has been a long process but now my quilt finally is finished. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> I decided not to buy any new fabrics for this project.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> My layer of fabric is large.... very large! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well..I hope you got a decent picture of the quilt. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It has been a fun project to implement. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> I developed the pattern by starting from a sketch and then build the block.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> I've used one template and otherwise built blocks in a free manner.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Namely sewing, cutting, sewing!!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A way to work that I really love!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And now....scary...I have no idea for my next quilt!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But you never know when inspiration strikes. I am an optimist!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Days..weeks...months..time flies! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">But it's always time that I fill with stuff that matter to me.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">So here I am..after a summer to remember. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Many happy memories to cherish.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> Time with family and my dearest grandchild, Selma.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">A lot of time in the garden.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Time by the sea and in the mountins.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> Oops!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">In the mountins I met this cute one!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">But how about sewing then?</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">No....I have never ever spent so little time sewing!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I think!!!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">So you can imagine that I'm very eager to sew</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> and create something new.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Well..I have done some stichery.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> I saw a pillow in a store and figured out that it couldn't be that hard to make myself.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">But .....it has been a long journey.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">A lot of fish to be done!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">To work in the studio isn't my first choise </span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> Unfortunal too many days has been rainy here </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">in Sweden so far.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">But anyway...there has been a lot of days in the garden, digging, planting and making some "garden stuff"</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The idea is for it to rust beautifully</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> and a plant climb up the capsule.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sometimes it's good when it's a rainy day or days! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm the kind of person who nearly always choose to be outdoor when the sun is shining.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This week the rain poured down for two days....so what to do?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Absolutely no gardening!...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">...but I've had two days in the studio. It has been a long time since last time.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I started a quilt with leaves several months ago and there it was...unfinished!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I think I nearly forgot how fun sewing is!!!!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well, after two days indoor the top is finished!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I've done it!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After at least a year <b>Curvy Ladies</b> is finally finished.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> It has been a long process working on the design,seeing the quilt</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> slowly emerging from concept to completion.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I know that the idea of this quilt came when<b> Catwalk</b> with the tiny models was finished.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">You can see that quilt at my Gallery.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I thought....Curvy ladies are so much more natural.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So...here it is!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's quilted on the mashine and with cotton batting in between the layers.</span></div>

<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Have you ever woken up during the night </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">and clearly seen a block or a quilt for your inner eye?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It happened to me last night...and it wasn't the first time. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I figured out how to make it and what colors I would use ....blue...plaids....and white.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sometimes I get up and make a simple sketch and notes...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">but this time I thought..... </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I remember.....</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> and felt asleep again. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sweet dreams!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well...next morning....I opened my blue....and...Yes, I remembered!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I spend a lot of time in the studio this weekend and nine blocks is sewn.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Leaves.....blue leaves!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Why green?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I made a simple template of paper and started my project!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
