I'm in ---- twice

Puh,now I'm in too...twice. 
Dear Grethe offred me to borrow her pattern as long as I needed it. So I could start making plans with fabrics and so on.
So we meet for a cup of cofee,Latte of'course,and a nice talk. 
I had a hope that mine pattern would be in mail back home...but to get started if the mail man realy need my pattern, it was a grat offer. So thank you Grethe. 
As you can see My pattern was at home waiting for me,and to day I has been looking for ligth fabrics with blue in it... And I did found some... So no I'm ready for February!
