Tillykke til en kollega!

En kollega, som jeg lige er begyndt at arbejde i team sammen med, har jubilæum i dag. Hun har været lærer i 40 år! Arhmen, det' helt vildt! Det vil sige, at hun var færdig på lærerseminariet to år før jeg blev født! Mere imponerende er det selvfølgelig, at hun har formået at blive i lærerfaget i alle de år og samtidig være så glad for arbejdet med eleverne hver eneste dag. Tillykke, siger jeg, med en lille, hæklet kaktus:)

A colleague of mine celebrates her 40th year as a teacher! Wauw, I'm really impressed. She was educated two years before I was born and she still loves to be a teacher. I made her a small, crocheted cactus.

En hæklet gave til mig

Som lovet viser jeg jer den gave jeg fik til hæklekurset i går. Jeg fik den skønneste hæklede blomst af Mette, der lagde hus til arrangementet. Jeg blev helt overvældet, da jeg fik den. Havde slet ikke regnet med, at jeg skulle have en gave. Den er bare så flot! Det er mig, der takker.


I got this wonderful crocheted flower from Mette yesterday. She hosted the crochet class I held last night. I'm amazed. It's so beautiful! Thank you, Mette.

Now in English!

I´ve decided to try to write my blog in English. I hope to get at lot of new readers out there, and I hope you will bear with me if my language skills are not to good.

Now that the christmas presents have been opened, I want to share a couple of home made gifts with you. These are pot holders made by my son (7 years old). He drew with a textile pen, and I ironed it to bind the colour. I sew the white fabric on to the ready-made pot holders. It couldn't be easier, and my son was very proud of the finished result. The recipients were very pleased as well.


Another home made gift this christmas was a friendly cactus. It's so easy to take care of, and it looks funky in every office!

Please feel free to tell me about your home made gifts. What were they? Did they make the owners happy?
I wish you all a happy and crafty new year!
