A gift from my mother-in-law. It's made to fit our double bed and I must say, we needed a new one! As you probably can see, is it made of scrabs. Each and every little piece of fabric scrab has each own story to tell. I like that very much, because it is why I had a big wish of her making us this bedspread. My mother-in-law is demented. Not seriously yet, but we already know, that it will be worse. I wanted this project to remind me - and my family - of her creativity. She still knows how to sew and I know, that she has enjoyed making this gift for us. It doesn't matter that it is not made of beautiful and expensive fabric. It represents my mother-in-law. I love the scrabs from our daughters dresses - made years ago. I love the scrabs from France, which tell me how much my mil loves Provence. Scrabs from old curtains and so much more. All wonderful stories which I love to have in my family, when my MIL won't be able to sew anymore. The back fabric is chosen by me. Only because I was asked!
Kære Lise. Her er tæppet, du har glædet os med. Et tæppe som i den grad fortæller en masse dejlige historier. Historier om det børnetøj du har syet til dine mange børnebørn, gardiner du har syet, stof fra de dejlige ferier i provence og stof med mange andre historier. Jeg ved, at du har glædet dig med at sy det og fortælle, hvor du var undervejs. Du har glædet dig til at give os tæppet, som vi siger dig mange tak for. Vi håber, at du kan sy til os længe endnu!
