c'est bonne!
I made great progress in my projects in the last few days.
Thank you for bearing with me.
I know the silence is hard to take.
Don't think I am ignoring you or that I have run out of things to share, because that simply isn't true!
I found these new Blogs tonight in fact and after saving them with bookmarks I went back and decided to take a moment to link to them so that you can check out the wonderfulness yourselves!
First, let me say, you should know about this magazine that I adore, called Marie Claire Idees.
I was doing a search on it, trying to find where it can be purchased in English and I found this Blog called the French Patchworker that mentioned a bag she had seen in an issue and improved upon.
The more that I read her Blog the more I fell in love with some of her Projects and that's when I found the link to this French Blog that is full of embroidery, cross stiching, quilting and all sorts of lovely handmade stuff.
well.
Then I saw the Atelier Rouge Quilts.
That's when I had to start bookmarking a trail back to these crafty chicks.
I really, really like the one block with the round world and the houses sticking up all around. Reminds me of these at Flickr.
I am filing this away for some future date when I don't have anything else to do.
They remind me of the Little Prince.
Can I go to Paris, now, please?
Maybe I can find someone to apprentice to and learn to be an expert quilter.
Remember when Daniel Day Lewis went to Italy and became a Bootmaker's apprentice?
Why can't I do that, except in France with stitching?
c'mon
You can go too!
teehee!
"S'il vous plait"























Kim, You;e got to stop giving us all of these great links. I said I was getting off of here in a few minutes. Now I have like six windows open waiting for me to come have a look! I love those quilts by stitch in the ditch and your little doll is so cute! I need to sew more and quit sitting here so much!
