Needles 'n Pins

Before leaving on holiday, I made this little strawberry pincushion. Easy to take with me everywhere!
You can find the tutorial here.


And as I was in a pincushion mood, I made this one the same afternoon. Tutorial here.
Sometimes I really need little projects like this, because I have been working for so long on my quilt already.

Cats on my quilt

Guess how much time it took, before these two ended on my quilt blocks, spread out on the floor...
Less than three minutes, record broken!



Sorry for the poor quality of the pictures, I had to be quick, and there was almost no light.

Picardy

Back from a too short week in France, in a region I never visited before: Picardy.
A little impression of a really nice holiday:
The cathedral in Amiens, with very detailed sculptures everywhere.



The beautiful seaside, with crazy houses from the Belle Epoque. Shown here: Mers-les-Bains.



And the Château de Rambures, with its lovely rosary.
