Bunaden
Show quick summaryHide summary
What it's about: Sanna inherits her grandmother's Voss bunad, which is six centimetres too small, and the 84-year-old seamstress who once sewed it refuses to add a zip or let it out properly. When she opens the seams she finds that the grandmother had secretly enlarged it herself in 1974, with a note addressed to the seamstress: 'You said it couldn't be done. It could.'
Da bestemor Magnhild døde, fikk Sanna bunaden hennes. Det var en vossabunad, sydd i 1968, med et rødt liv og et brodert bryst med tusenvis av små glassperler. Sanna hadde beundret den hver 17. mai siden hun var liten. Nå hang den i skapet hennes i Bergen, og om tre uker skulle søsteren hennes gifte seg på Voss. Det var bare ett problem: Bestemor hadde vært en liten dame, og Sanna var ikke det. Da hun prøvde livet, manglet det seks centimeter før hektene møttes.
