Last Saturday René, a good friend since primary school, and I had a lovely day out in Roermond.That's an old city in the southern part of the Netherlands.The weather was good, the shops were great and the markets were nice..We also visited Sabine in her craftshop, where I bought some new fabric and threads.In my cupboard I had found some charts I'd love to make but... guess what!... I didn't have the right colours...sounds familiar doesn't it...
By now I can hear you thinking, what about mr S the Scotsman. Well ladies I know, but I'm simply not in th mood...the colours are rather dark and it just doesn't feel good....He's in the WIP box ...I know I'll finish him someday.
Today mr Postman brought me a present from France.It's a book written by Isabelle Mazabraud from Reflets de Soie, it's about som English Samplers and it's got the charts included.Wonderful book with a personal note in it written by Isabelle herself...
Vandaag kwam er een pakje uit Frankrijk met een prachtig boek geschreven door Isabelle Mazabraud van Reflets de Soie. Het beschrijft vijf Engelse merklappen en de patronen staan er ook in.Voorin heeft Isabelle een paar persoonlijke woordjes geschreven, kortom een mooie aanwinst...
Hugs and Liefs
