Hurray! One Boutis sampler finished! This will be made into a pincushion but not until I get back to Alaska where I have a big bag of crushed walnut shells to use as stuffing.
I 'm making car parts for the stocking.
And today I started sewing blocks together to make rows...and then sewing rows together. I'm pretty sure I'll get this all put together by the end of the day. I absolutely love this quilt! So girlie!
Instead of a brisk fitness walk, yesterday I did a leisurely stroll up the Champs-Élysées, getting to the Arc de Triomphe at sunset and then turning back for our apartment.
Today it will be a brisk fitness walk. And I have to make a quick stop for the groceries I forgot to buy...lost my list early in my stop at the grocery store yesterday...I hate that! I forgot eggs and garlic. We always have eggs for breakfast on Sunday morning...and I need the garlic for salad dressing. My little trolley cart that I use to cart all my groceries home was too full for anything else to fit in it. I am so glad I do not have two growing boys living with me here in Paris...I would have to shop every day if I did.
I love your ring blocks quilt! I must check to see if I have the book with that pattern in it. The dark purple background really makes the rings pop out. Bravo for finishing your boutis sampler!
