Vanuit Frankrijk

Hier ben ik dan vanuit het zonnige Frankrijk. We zijn vandaag aangekomen na een korte reis die lang duurde. We zijn dwars door de alpen hierheen gekomen en dat was maar 300 km, maar een en al bocht en uiteindelijk kostte het 8 uur reizen met zeer uitgebreide lunch van anderhalf uur.
We zaten in www.albergosudamerica.com en nu zitten we in www.closdespanelles.com en we blijven hier de komende dagen en reizen woensdag weer verder naar Belgie.

Update Little red riding hood


Waarschijnlijk mijn laatste berichtje voor mijn vakantie. Ik heb inmiddels weer 2 pagina's af en als ik goed heb geteld heb ik er nu 30 af en moet ik er nog 26, waarvan 10 pagina's die niet volledig gevuld zijn.

Hij gaat ook mee op vakantie aangezien ik bij een borduurvriendin in Zwitserland zal zijn de eerste week en die hem natuurlijk in het echt wil bewonderen. Voor de rest neem ik de mandjes mee om te appliqueren en waarschijnlijk Journey of a quilter om te borduren.

My last update and probaly also message before my vacation. I finished another 2 pages, so now a total of 30 are finished and only (LOL) 26 to go, but from which 10 are not totally full pages. This one will go with me on vacation as I will be meeting and sleeping at the home of a stitching friend in Switzerland and off course she wants to see it in real life. Also I will put the baskets (tisket tasket) in my bag to applique and Journey of a quilter to do the stitcheries. I will learn Marianne to quilt. Hope I will do fine.

I will take the laptop with me, so probaly you will see a post or more here from my vacation. Will be gone for two weeks. And when I come back it will be my worst stashbusting report ever as the finishing and backing for the BOM will come in and also a FQ bundle from Roses the Noel. That last one is very naughty from me, but well just had to use a 20% of discount. I promise I will be using it soon.

Well not so good week as more came in than went out. But next week will be a nice bust as I will be piecing the backing for my mysterie and also will be starting a new little quilt. But well that is next week. This week I used 1 meter for the spring fling round robin.
Also there came in a layercake from gypsy rose and 2 yards of moda marbles for a new quilt I want to make from Miss Rosie quiltcompagny as soon as the pattern comes in. And this envelope is really taking a long way.

Top Finished


Het werd bijna middernachtelijk patchen, maar het is gelukt. De top is af. Ben erg tevreden met het resultaat. Nu kan mijn moeder hem gaan quilten met de hand. Zondag maar eens de achterkant gaan maken.


I have been sewing for two hours tonight and it is finished. I am very happy with the result. Now my mother can start the quilting by hand on it.

Going great

Ik ga als een speer. Als ik thuis was heb ik zoveel mogelijk achter de naaimachine gezeten. Over 1 driehoekjes rand doe ik ongeveer een uur met snijden en naaien. Vooral alle driehoekblokjes bijsnijden is veel werk. Ik hoop hem vrijdagavond helemaal af te hebben.
Have been sewing like crazy here when I was home and I now have finished 2/3 of the whole quilt. Only adding the last borders to the last two cornerblocks and than can be sewn to this part too. Hope to have it finished by Fridayevening.
