Yesterday, hubby and I had our 10 year wedding anniversary. Or so the calendar said. I still think it sounds quite of crazy… We met in the internet (something that led to strange looks 12 years ago!), in a forum for “German Idol”. Our first real meeting took place in Munich, and one of the …

It’s done – my Stories of Inspiration ebook is finally available and lots of blood, sweat and tears went into it. This ebook contains a collection of all the shawls I have published so far. Apart from the more obvious similiarities – they are shawls, they are lacy, I chose Drops yarn for all of …
