A life full of colors!



This work took me back to the beginning of my adventure with patchwork. I used some of my favorite fabrics almost to the last thread, first cutting large rectangles for the quilt, and then from what was left – tiny ones for pillows.

The set is a wedding gift and I have included a lot of good wishes for the newlyweds’ further journey together 🙂

Mustard fleece duvet



More than two years ago I sewed a duvet for Ela

White Birches



When we arrived in our current dwelling place I was delighted by a birch growing just behind the window. A familiar view in a strange world and one of my favorite trees.

Summer Wine



I started this quilt more than 3 years ago in 2016, most likely in the summer. Patchwork was then still new to me. Also in my imagination two pieces of the fabric could only be sewed using straight lines.
