jtorsvik Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Hei, Quiltet et teppe med gamle minner for en kunde. Syntes det var et veldig koselig oppdrag. Her var biter fra mors gamle kjøkkenduk fra 1940, svigermors gamle nattkjole og foreningsduk, samt kundens første hardangersøm fra 1960.. Et ordentlig koselig minneteppe;) Merete: Kan du sende meg en oppskrift på hvordan å legge med bilde så kan dere se det også Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merelling Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Jeg vil tro at årsaken til at du ikke får inn bilde ditt er at bilde er for stort. Jeg har funnet ut at 640 x 480 pks er en grei størrelse. Gleder meg til å se bilde ditt, det høres spennende ut;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtorsvik Posted November 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Takker Merete! Har endret pikslene til din anbefaling og prøver igjen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IBQLTN2 Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Merete would you translate for me please that I like it very much. Great job. thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtorsvik Posted November 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Merete doesn't have to translate:D. Maybe I should translate what I wrote about the top: My customer made this memory quilt out of an old table cloth from 1950, her first hardanger enbroidery, an night gown from her MIL and other heritaged tings. A really personal quilt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
countrylanequilting Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 Janne, do we assume you quilted it? Janet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBQLTN2 Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 Hi Janne Thank you so much for explaining in english what this quilt was all about. It is just a beautiful family heirloom memory quilt. I especially love the blue and white pitcher, plate and tea cups with the scandinavian designs. My father in law was from Copenhagen Denmark and we have some of the Danish blue and white plates from there. I just love all the memories!! So nice to meet you.

merelling Posted November 20, 2009 Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 Kjempeflott Jane! Quiltingen passer absolutt på teppet!! Ser ut som om det bare er oss fra skandinvia som er her, så vi kan kanskje like gjerne skrive engelsk med engang, ellers ender vi bare opp med å oversette etterpå Beautiful quilt Janne!

LadyLake Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 Okay gals, I see that I've been missing out by assuming that I wouldn't understand a word that was said in the Scandinavisk Forum!

RoseCity Quilter Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 I too have been missing out! Today I looked out of curiosity, as I have Norwegian roots. What a lovely quilt! I have done some Hardanger Embroidery and can really appreciate it! Hope you will show more of your work! So interesting.... Some day I hope to visit your country!
