Bernie The Bolt

When we went to the medieval festival, we found a cloth seller!  He called himself Bernie the Bolt and had some lovely linen.  I'm going to stitch on it.  Price was right, too - ten euros a meter.

Inside Corner

I've started part three at the inside corner.  It was the only place I -could- start because it's the only area with some kind of overlap with the previous chart.  Why don't designers do a little bit of overlap on each page?  It makes it -so- much easier.

French Fabric

I bought these pretty cotton pieces in Pont Audemer.  Now to get time to do something with them.

Flip Flops

One and a half flip flops done.  The A's about a third done.  Almost to the halfway point.

Backwards S'ing

More of the right side border is now stitched and the leaves are coming along.

Octogoned

I got all the stitching done!  Now to turn it into an ornament.

All I Found...

Eurodif is one of those European department store chains that has a little bit of everything and not enough of anything.  I hoped to find some stitching supplies there in Rouen's franchise, but it was pretty bare.  I did, at least, find this peacock charm.
