The time of colorful nature!

Autumn is finally here and I just love it! All the leaves that changes color och the crisp air. Mmm...
I wish I could say that I do a lot of quilting but unfortunately I don't. :-( I have to study most of my time cause it is my last semester before I can say that I have a Bachelor's Degree in Economics and Business - I can't wait! On top of school I seriously have to start looking for a job now. It would be wonderful to start working in January. I'm very excited about the future but at the same time it's a little bit scary... I'm definitely applying for a traineeprogram. I think that would fit me and it would give me the oppurtunity to apply my theoretical knowledge to practical situations.
Back to quilting, I guess that is why you're here! I have many new projects that's just waiting on the shelf and I wish I had the time to do it. My Mom went to the Quilt Show in Birmingham in August and she bought me some really nice things, among them a beautiful kit from Petra Prins. I think I might save that one until after Christmas though, when I have more time.
Our local quilt group are working on a project that we're gonna give to a part of the hospital where handicapped children live. We all make 12" blocks and my block has an elephant with floppy ears on it. :-) We also have a Round Robin project with a theme of our own. I chose Crazy Quilt for my block and it'll be exciting too see the final result in March. :-)

I guess that's it for today. Have a lovely autumn!
