Here we go again! Taking off on Monday for a two week visit to France! First, a fun 6 days of stitching and shopping and wonderful food in southwestern France with my travel buddies, Syd, Colleen and Susan. Then back to Paris for museums, food, gardens, and what ever else we find to do.
I quickly put together a travel journal so I can record our adventures.
Will add it to my pile of other fabric journals. Taking some water colors with me and will see if there is time for a little painting..
Saturday I drove down to a wonderful store called PORCH near Carpinteria.
The owner is a friend and I saw that Mary Emmerling was going to be there to sign some of her books.
I have always loved her style and so it was fun to be able to visit with her and her friends...who have the most wonderful turquoise jewelry! I bought one of her books, "The Art of the Heart" which has wonderful photos of hearts of all kinds.
PORCH...
Then back home to finish packing for our trip. See you in two weeks!
Happy September!
