For twelve years I have been a part of the Marieborg Quilters — and yet I haven't been there all the time. There are those who have been there even longer, who remember when this was just a few sewing machines. Twice a year, summer and winter, we gather, often at Marieborgs Folkhögskola and transform the gymnasium into…
Finally. Finally I can say it out loud. I will be at Quiltköping 2026 — not as a visitor this time, but as an exhibitor with my own booth. It feels a bit surreal to write it, but it's true, and I'm so happy that it's finally happening. Quiltköping is one of Sweden's most beloved sewing and quilting fairs,…
Sweden's National Day — then and now June 6 has deep historical origins. It was on this day in 1523 that Gustav Vasa was elected king and Sweden became an independent kingdom.

Something childish. Something that will be left for “later”, when everything important is done.
There is something special about fabric. Not just as a material – but as a carrier of ideas, movement and life. And once a year it becomes extra clear. The Night of the Fabrics is not just an event. It is a global flow of creativity. What is The Night of the Fabrics? This is…
Valhallabadet – a piece of living history that is in danger of disappearing Save Valhallabadet – when beauty has to take a back seat There are places that are more than just buildings. Places where form, light and material meet – and become something that is felt. Valhallabadet in Gothenburg is such a place. Inaugurated in 1956, in the midst of a time…
Sew Hack 2026 in Borås ✨ SewHack 2026 – a place for creative energy (and yes, I'm going there) There are certain events that immediately feel right. Which are not just about watching – but about participating, creating and developing. For me, SewHack 2026 is one of those. May 8–10, sewing enthusiasts will gather in…
Brilliant Saturday: Saturday is about creating – on a small or large scale, in your own way. After the week there is often a feeling of: “now I should do something with the time.” But what actually gives energy is not doing a lot. It is doing something that feels alive.
