Jo-Ann

Børnene skulle til tandlæge (de skal nemlig grundigt tjekkes inden de på nogen måde må starte skole herovre), og så fik jeg lov at bruge noget tid alene i en KÆMPEstor hobbyforretning.
Jeg var skam ikke utilfreds. At vælge mellem dejlige, kreative ting og tandlæge? Hmmmm.... Ikke svært.
Jo-Ann er en stor kæde med cirka alt til hobby. Deres mest imponerende udvalg var på sy-siden. F.eks. alle deres fine bånd og knapper. Der var nok at se på!

The kids were going to the dentist (you really need a lot of tests before being allowed to start school over here), and then I got to spend some time alone in a GIANT crafts store.
I wasn't unhappy. Choosing between lovely stuff for creative activities and the dentist? Hmmm. Not too difficult.
Jo-Ann has everything for crafts. The most impressive part was for sewing. For instance all the pretty buttons and ribbons. Enough to keep me occupied for some time!
Noget af stoffet. Meget til patchwork. Enormt smukt, og endda for en stor dels vedkommende på tilbud! Der røg noget i kurven, og nu må jeg altså også få taget mig sammen og begynde at sy noget af alt det jeg har liggende! Det sjoveste stof jeg købte derinde, var noget Halloween med flotte, orange græskar. Aner ikke, hvad jeg skal bruge det til, men smukt og sjovt er det!

Part of the fabrics section. A lot for patchwork. Really pretty, and most of it was even on sale! I bought some, and now I really must get around sewing something from all the fabrics I have at home! The funniest fabric I bought in there, was some Halloween-stuff with beautiful, orange pumpkins. No idea, what I will use it for, but it is pretty and fun.
Garn havde de også. Alverdens forskellige former for - - - - - acrylgarn. Nej tak lyder det fra mig, men heldigvis ved jeg da hvordan jeg forsyner mig på anden vis!
Imponerende så de nu alligevel ud, de store halvkilos-nøgler.

They had yarn too. Al different kinds of - - - - - - - - acrylics. No thank you, acrylics is not on any favorite-lists of mine! Fortunately, I know how to get hold of yarn in other places!
The large, one-pound skeins were impressive, though.
