Julform weekend

Julform is over and I am more or less dead. Working both day and night this last week makes me long for christmas break even more. Atleast I managed to see the children celebrating lucia at school this year:)
Lots of nice photos from the weekend over at the julform sight.

New pillowcases

My new pillowcases arrived yesterday. The material is fantastic, velvet. The print (the black is really black!) and the sewing aswell, thanks to Tobex. After Julform I will add them to my shop!

Kitchen towels

Our kitchen towels came last week, they are sold in two pacs, one polkastriped and one based upon the poster pattern I made earlier this autumn.  Today Elisabeth took some photos of them with good help from Klara Bothén. Both Elisabeth and Klara will be participating in Julform and over at the Julform sight you can see Klaras lovley mittens.

Elisabeth took some nice photos of my pillowcases that arrived today, se the post over at www.finlittleday.com. I will blog about them tomorrow!

Childrens book

Second page in the book is actually the first. I just had to start with second page cause I had an idea. Now I got an idea about most of the pages which makes me feel like taking a long break and "just do it". At the childrens book course I met Lisa Karinsdotter Pålsson and she makes the most beautiful origami decorations. I would like to have stars in the celing when I exhibit at stockholm furniture fair, stars folded out of my patterns. I´m starting this illustration inspired by Lisas folded star.
This page in the book, the first, is illustrating this text:

Månen den lyste och stjärnorna glittrade. 

Barfota ute, de sprang och de fnittrade.

I won´t try to translate it cause it´s Elisabeths words and I would ruin them. But it tells about the night an the moon and the stars and kids running outside, giggeling and bare footed.

Julform all day long!

In the days I´m working with the PR around Julform and in the evenings I´m knitting scarves for the lions outside Röhsska museet.
I´m happy to have my book project and the sketches for the public comission (boic) to think about. Tomorrow I´ll show you sometihing new from the book project , and it wont be polkastick inspired!

Julform photoshoot

The other day we took some Julform photos. Crazy but fun...,kind of describes the whole project. Even though it´s very hectic it´s both challenging and and a great experience.  One week to go.
