Finally!!
Kajsa's book ended up in my mailbox. I have been waiting for it to come ever since the day Kajsa wrote on her blog, that a book was a new and exiting project of her's.
I have admired Kajsa's work and read her blog for a long time.
To me there is a handful of people on the internet, who truely has rocked my world with their work, personality and never ending creativity. Kajsa is one of them...
I remember how thrilled I were when I saw her things for the very first time. Her wonderful pillows, quilts, houses, Tomter, cat pouches, bags and much more immidiately made me smile and at the same time, I loved how obvious it was that Kajsa made her things with such care and meticulousness.
And now we all get the possibility to read about it and make some of Kajsa's things from her new book.
The book is very well written and illustrated by lovely photos. I like how words and pictures have been put together, and it leaves the reader extremely inspired and well equipped for sewing and trying out the variuos techniques Kajsa uses in her work.
Last but not least I appriciate that the book gives you a fine and personal impression of the person behind it.
Need I say that I love Scandinavian Stitches??
Kan faktisk føle det helt herud :-)
ReplyDeleteDen ser da fantastisk spændende ud - den bog.
ReplyDeleteSmuk er den også at se på ;-)
:))) Den er altså også helt fantastisk, Miri. :)) Tænk at kunne glæde folk på den måde med det man skaber. Det kan Kajsa virkelig i dén grad.
ReplyDeleteJeg glæder mig til at prøve nogle ting fra bogen. :))
..........
Engang kunne jeg ikke fordrage applikationer, Gitte og det er faktisk først de senere år at jeg har kunnet se fidusen i dem igen. Men nu skal jeg også love for at jeg er begejstret - og det har Kajsa tildels æren for. :))
Den bog kan anbefales. :))
My copy of this book just arrived yesterday too! I spent all evening reading it - great book - I knew it would be! ;-)
ReplyDeleteKære Ulla

Håber alt vel og klar til juletiden ;-)

I get all teary by your lovely words Ulla! You did find yourself on page 8, did you? Because I would never have written this book without the amazing support and encouragement you and other people I have met on-line have given me :)
ReplyDeleteYou are so right, Georgia - it's really good. :)) I have read it several times too, and have a hard time figuring out which project to try out first. There are so many brilliant ones...

Kære Wenche!
Det er en fantastisk inspirerende bog - den er virkelig fuld af lutter skønne ting.
Vi er ikke klar til jul overhovedet, men jeg synes selv at jeg er startet ud i god tid i år med gaveindkøb - jeg har allerede 3 gaver på plads. ;))
Jeg håber at i er ved at være på plads i jeres nye hjem. Og at i trives alle mand.
Jeg har ikke engang fået købt det nye album med Tina Dickow. Er det ikke en slags opsamling?
Prince er blevet spillet en hel del herhjemme på det seneste. Ih, hvor var det en stor oplevelse at se og høre ham live.
Hav det rigtig godt, Wenche. :))

Oh, Kajsa! Now it's definitely me who gets all teary.
Thank you ever so much for mentioning me in your prefatory note!! That really touched me deeply. I had to run into the kitchen to show it to my husband right. ;))
Your book deserves every single positive word. It's amazing and I can't help thinking about how much hard work, and development of ideas you have done. You must be so proud of the book.
I have already read it numerous times and keep finding new beautiful details.
Once more, thank you very much for your kindness, Kajsa - that definitely made my day!
Have a lovely weekend. :))
