Summer challenge revealed

I showed you the fabrics for our Quilt Guild's summer challenge a couple of posts ago, and now I can show you what I made with the fabrics I received.

The theme was "Out and about" or "traveling" And since I always bring my camera with me I thought I'd make myself a new camerastrap.  The old one was a "normal" Canon strap.... Boring...... I am happy with my new one- and I got to try it out in Rome :-)
Today I quilted and sewed the binding onto the "froggy runner". I had most of the day off, and even had the house to myself, so I cleaned up my sewingroom a bit and finished the runner and some secret SSCS sewing.... Sorry- no sneak peeks!

I also went shopping for a light for my sewingroom window- Ola liked it and said it looked like Christmas in there now..... I think he may be right about that!

And on our way to Trondheim the other day it looked like Christmas is coming soon as well. When it stopped snowing for a few minutes (before the rain started) and the sun came out it looked really pretty.  Kristine took the picture out of the windshield....
