In France .....

........ with ...... you guess

with Sharon and Jerry. Yes, Sharon of Pintangle and her husband.

Oh, we had a fun evening together with wine and lovely and interesting

chats - and a relatively early breakfast next morning with croissants and coffee.

Then we saw them off again at the station of Lure in Haute-Saône, France, and the train

came on time which surprised us. They started now their pilgrim's path (Jakobsweg)

in Spain.

You can see DH as a photo-taking shadow.

The fence in the background is ours and the house - an old farmhouse - too.

It is the playground of DH.

(Our computer and internet is working again. I could re-establish my blog again into the

shape of before - life without internet is half the fun!)

And what we did before:

Transport of the workbench from the Vosges into the playground of DH.

Grandson teaching grandma the how-to on the iPhone. We had two lovely days together 

before he started his travel through Germany and other European countries.

And off he goes.

Barb Stitch 138 and Beaded Barb stitch 139

This is my stitch cloth where I added the two new stitches

in yellow

Stitch cloth -a stitch sketch

Sharon will stop teaching stitches after the 140th stitch

After New Year she might go on if there is enough interest

Below is my stitch band with the new stitches 138 and 139

 

I left the lower row unfinished - to see how it is constructed.

Take a look at Sharons page of Pintangle click

 

Leaves

I varnished a leaf - look at the sheen

I am going to make holes into it - not knowing yet where and

whether I succeed without destroying the dry leaf

 

Crazy thing

with a few quilt lines

- inspired by a visit in a Swiss village in the mountains

 

chalet-quilting - Chalet is the name for a Swiss holiday cottage.

can you see the slanted little cottages - infact in Switzerland ...

...everything is beautifully built and proper and clean - nothing wonky.
