FNSI Is Here

and after a long day I´m getting ready to hopp into my sewing room


my personal "dope"


I need to do some more quilting at this quilt

oh yeah....never leave your sewing machine unattended..... cause two little rats aka Moritz and Rocco might stealing the thread of my machine and start tangling it. After screaming and yelling, the rats have disappeared.....

I wonder where they are?!?!

Got ya........you cant hide..... I always find the criminals

some quilting got done - just not as much as I wanted to - but oh well

Time for bed....... good night blogging world

Bomb Attack In Norway

"We Can Do It" - Rosie the Riveter

Remember the lunch-box, the cup, the fabric I have from Rosie - I added something new to this collection



Nicoles Mom showed me a advertising from a store and pointed out this thermometer..........and of course I had to buy it...... its the first time I bought something about Rosie in Germany!

Hanna Has Arrived

This means I finally have a name to applique on the quilt I´ve started a while ago - well and hopefully I can finish it asap.


Name is already appliqued on and the layers are sandwiched...... ready to quilt.......

Welcome to the world little Hanna - may god bless you and your parents.

KAM snaps

Two month ago Nicole told me something about KAMsnaps .........nope I think I dont need something like this!!!! Nicoles Mom brought some home and sometimes you have to "look" with you fingers ...... well this "I dont need those" turned into a "hmmmmm they are not that bad" - lol. While I stayed with Nicole, she showed me her KAMsnaps and what she used them for - and again "they are not that bad". I ´ve started paying attention to KAMsnaps..... I´ve to tell you... they are used everywhere...... my pants, Nicoles Mom said that they were even used in her little greenhouse, my raincoat for the stable....aso........ well I´m weak

Here are my "I think I dont need those" KAMsnaps - lol

Danke Nicole....

.....es ist definitiv zuviel Wasser zwischen unseren Wohnorten :(




LQS - Local Quilt Store

A place - Nicoles knows I´d love to stop by.


I love this little store and the staff is always so friendly








while we were playing with the fabrics - Soren was playing with his Nintendo DS



Lucky - the Store Manager




Offside Riverwalk

There are also alot of great things to see offside the Riverwalk. I think the Alamo is a must see while you are in San Antonio......

The Alamo (link to Wiki)

The Trolleys are the easiest way to get to the sightseeing stops



Linda, Henry and I  - had breakfast there - we waited ca. 45 min. to get a table. While waiting we took the tour through the little museum and the shop

Mexican soldier (link to Wiki)

This horse sculpture we have seen at the spain maket - somehow it reminds me at Ansbachs Anscavallo...... I´m not sure which horse I like better - lol
I like this wall picture alot


The building reminds me a bit on Europe....like France or Spain

So not Europe - lol!

(link to Wiki - I havent known how great the building looks in the dark)

I like the bulding not because there´s McDonalds inside - lol 

Hard Rock Café


too bad it was 8.30 am - hahaha


There is way more to see in San Antonio and I think it´s a bit more fun strolling around when it is not this hot outside.
