Quilts, quilts, quilts...

OK. With Flickr accessed and working, I'll proceed to what was my intentions: to focus this blog on my "retirement project": quilting :)
Back in the 19th century, I quilted a lot, but when I got a full time job at UC Syd, I put all my fabric and threads aside and stopped cutting up fabric into small pieces and stitch them together to large pieces of fabric. Lolz

I stored my fabric in the basement when I moved to Haderslev and when I decided to take up quilting again and carried my boxes with fabric up from the basement I found out that storing fabric in basements was not a good idea: they all smelled musty. Bwadr!
I washed, dried and ironed it all. It took several hour a day for a full month. My husband and daughter took pity on me and did a lot of ironing. Bless them!

Then out to buy storage chests with basket drawers, so I could store the fabric so I could easily overview them and so that they didn't get smelly again. To be completely sure, I distributed small bags of lavender in the baskets.



My walk-in closet got converted to a storeroom with a wardrobe and my height adjustable computer table got converted to a quilters workbench.


After some month, I was ready to go..............
