April finishes

MIL's 80th birthday present. It's ab. 140x175 cm. A bit more pink than it looks here.
We were all gathered in Stavanger this weekend for a confirmation, so we gave her the present a couple of days early - so she could take it home in the car. She was very pleased :-) 
 Confirmations are big here in Norway - family gatherings and presents galore. We gave our niece this bag (her favourite colours - how lucky) and some money to spend on something she is saving up for.
 Two pretty spring potholders for my kitchen - thankyou again for the yarn, Di, and see I made something for the kitchen challenge :-)
 Another preemie blanket.
And a new month waiting to be filled with new projects - enjoy!

  5. Lovely work Anne-Lise. The hexagon quilt is stunning. I am still in battle with my kaleidoscope one made in the spirit of paper piecing but without the papers. Lovely knitting projects. Your niece must be so pleased with the bag.
