CANDLE BAGS

I have made two bags for candles.

The white and black one is made with some black patchwork decorations and then covered with machine stitches.

The green one is made of small pieces of self dyed fabric - all of them green. The seems are covered with different kind of decorative seems like cracy patchwork. The inside of the green bag is in fabric with small pink flowers.

Kirsten Klein

Yesterday I visited an art exebition on Silkeborg Bad. I saw some amacing photos from a woman called Kirsten Klein. The photografer has really the sence for the motifes and I felt that her sensations was all over the picture room. I decided to buy an other camera - not to make pictures like hers, but to be able to watch the world this way and in black and white.

COW PAREDE

Some years ago we visited Prag in our holiday. At the same time there was an art excebition from the cow parade. It was very funny to walk around finding the cows and we thought it was a special idea.

As we came home and looked roung the area we live in, we found out that there were not many cows on the fields. Here are mainly huge pig farms. As a protest agaings that I decided to sew a wall carpet called "Thorning Cow Parade"

I started sewing it last week.

HANDBALL

I love the European game "Handball". Recently the Danish mens team won the European champinonship and I watched it on TV. They have played exiting games against teams from Norway, Germany and Croatia. The team was celebrated in Copenhagen as they came home and it was a big party to the hole country.

FUNGUS

Very often we go to the woods and collect eatable mushrooms. They are a delicacy in cooking and the trip gives us frish air and exercise. But do not pick and eat every mushroom you find. You have to know a lot about them so that you doesn't bring back some that poison you.
