So this time Carlos made it to France. I stayed in Mallety, near Limoges with the lovely and wonderful couple Fran and Phil and their assortment of 3 cats, 3 dogs and one tortoise. I eat wonderful food, drink gin and tonics and white wine but spend most of the day in the workshop. This time I made a bag from an old mumsy jacket, mended my bright orange silk evening bag from Accessorize, made 2 challah cloths (one for Betsy [nature] and one for Tania [beach huts]) – see my earlier blog on challah covers, and used the kantha machine to make new border for my bed using variegated purple and lilac thread. I also made 40 dreamcatchers on card – see the following blog!
Carlos went on a number of adventures around Mallety, mostly in Fran and Phil’s place with their animals and large amounts of stuff. A very photogenic and peaceful place.
