Zipper Pouches
Two linen pouches with Elsa Beskow transfers. I love her books and beautiful vintage motifs from a fantastic world. Reading her books make me want to visit her wonderful fantasy world.
It's not a secret, that I enjoy making pouches. You are free to use every kind of fabrics, patterns, colours and so on. Use your imagination - it's great. It's a perfect project, when you are not in the mood for a bigger project - or don't have the time for it. Today I needed to finish something just to see, that I'm still able to sew.....
I hope, you have great Sunday.
De er skønne. Jeg glæder mig sådan til jeg kan melde mig ind i syklubben igen:-) Så skal der laves noget tilsvarende.

Hvor er de bare smukke!! Lavede du selv 'transfer'-en... hvad dælen hedder sådan en på dansk :-)?
Jeg elsker også Elsa Beskow og har læst mange af hendes bøger højt - mange gange!

De er blevet supersøde, og dine transfers er meget poetiske.

Love! Da jeg sidst var i Danmark, havde jeg bedt min mor om at låne en hel stak Elsa Beskow bøger på biblioteket. Nostalgi så det basker! (-:

Hoi Mette,
What a wonderfull pourses you made !!
We also love Elza's books, we think they are the most wonderfull books.
They pictures and drawings are so nice.
I 'm wondering how you got those pictures on your pourse, I mean I don't think you sew a paper onto the pourse, how did you transfer it to fabric, or did you buy fabric with elza's drawings????
Greetings from belgium

Hej Mette.
Ja som du ser, er ugle-manden kommet godt frem. Han skal nok komme til at føle sig velkommen her, specielt når Andrea ser ham, og giver ham masser af klem og kram, ha ha. Tak skal du have, for MEGET hurtig ekspedition.
Flotte punge du har syet, dejlige billeder der er på.
Knus Maria.
