In the morning! 

Om morgenen...

Utsikten ut av vinduet viser meg dette bildet i morges... Nysnø... Jeg ventet faktisk vår i begynnelsen av mars... men det ser fint ut... gjør det ikke?

Dette gir meg muligheten til å presentere fuglen min stukket ut av folie på vindusruten... vinduet er et karnapp, så fuglene har ofte fløyet inn i det - noe som kan føre til alvorlige skader - siden jeg sikret vinduet med Foliefugl det skjer ikke lenger... at fuglene kan skade seg ved å fly mot vindusruten.

Though I'm thinking of spring, I had this view out the window this morning... this gives me the opportunity to introduce you to my foil bird.

The window is a bay window and birds flew against it. Since I fixed the pane with the bird's foil, the birds no longer fly against the pane. So I gladly adopt the foil bird to protect the birds... and I have a large number in the garden... blackbirds, meissen, robins, sparrows, several types of finches, when it's very cold the forest birds come to that Feeder... bullfinch, woodpecker, etc.

 At the end of February - it was some very warm days - we took a tour of Mount Oybin in Germany/Saxony... the mountain is 514m high and the ruins of Emperor Charles IV's castle complex occupy the entire summit area. It is a small, beautiful and historically interesting hike. And an old steam train runs through the villages and there are many beautiful half-timbered houses to admire.

I slutten av februar tok vi en tur til Oybin i Tyskland/Sachsen med veldig bra vær... fjellet er 514m høyt og ruinene av slottet til keiser Karl IV tar opp hele toppområdet. Det er en liten, vakker og historisk interessant tur. Et gammelt damplokomotiv kjører gjennom landsbyene og det er mange bindingsverkshus å beundre.

Do you see the little steam train?

It was a beautiful tour, maybe you enjoyed seeing the photos.

Feiret i helgen 

We celebrated at the weekend.

For en helg, det var bursdagen min og hele familien var der... best av alt.

It was my birthday and best of all... the whole family was there. I love it.

...og som om den var laget til meg så hadde det snødd hele natten... så jeg sier enten sol og blomster eller sol og snø :-) 

......my birthday present from heaven - nice loose powder snow on the birthday morning - we had a lot of fun with it...

:-)

...og ja, det var nok å spise og drikke.

...... we also ate and drank well. It was wonderful.

Thanks.

With these flowers from the birthday bouquet I wish you all a good week. May there be joy in their hearts.

Klem av Viola

The project is finished 

Den korte kåpen er sydd

I cut the short coat longer at the back and there are pockets on the right and left and it has a large collar...

...I lined the coat with this beautiful fabric and added two pockets inside.

It closes with two buttons.

I am happy, the coat turned out beautiful. Meanwhile we have up to 10 degrees during the day but still frost at night... so there are the first spring bloomers... 

I love looking for them.

Mange hilsener nær og fjern.

 Snø og nytt syprosjekt

Snow and new sewing project

Dette er mitt nye syprosjekt... Jeg vil på en eller annen måte lage den til en frakk - kort frakk. Og jeg må si, det er ikke lett :-)) Men folk liker å lære nye ting!!! Jeg kan fortelle deg mer om det senere. Sidelommene kan sees på bildet. Krysser fingrene for meg, i alle fall alle bloggervenner som er kjent med symaskinen :-) Ja, og neste gang skal jeg sy en enkel veske igjen...så lett å ha på seg... deilig og avslappet :-)

This is my new sewing project... I want to put it together somehow into a coat - short coat. And I have to say, it's not easy :-))) But humans like to learn new things!!! I'll be able to tell you more about it later. The side pockets can be seen in the photo. Keep your fingers crossed for me, at least all blogging friends who are also familiar with the sewing machine :-))) Yes and next time I'll sew a bag again :-)) so easy to wear... nice and cozy :-)

Og alle som kjenner meg vet at jeg liker snø.

And you know - I like snow.

Er det ikke et fantastisk eventyrlandskap?

I love this wonderful fairytale landscape.

 Og litt sol og litt ski er det også.

The sun is not often, but every now and then it is there and so are the skis.

I am happy.

Jeg ønsker deg også lykke.

I wish you a lot of happiness too.

Viola
