I was going to do a bit of machine and hand quilting on this little Sajou Too, but I was on a roll at our Sisters retreat and just went with it!
I did add that awesome French General binding when I got home.
The backing was a map of Paris.
French General label too!
I went to Portland and finally was able to see the new-to-her salon she moved to almost 2 months ago. It is in a cool historic building above Voo-Doo donuts.
Champagne chandelier??? LOL
When the weather is nice there is a little balcony very similar to a few places we've stayed in Europe. It was rainy the day I went so I only took a sneak peak.
As is our tradition to go to lunch after my hair appointment. This is where I gave her the little quilt for Valentine's Day.
Thank you so much for purchasing the books! I just have a handful left and if you want to take a final peak you can do it HERE.
I'm still waiting to hear from White Eagle, and Linda Z. Please contact me with your mailing address at ldej@crestviewcable.com and I'll get these in the mail to you!
My Instagram feed for the week!
Have a fantastic weekend friends!!
What a wonderful gift full of fond memories. That new salon building is sensational! I could see a quilt room set up in there!!
ReplyDeleteSajou II is such a beautiful memory of your trip, one your daughter will treasure always. Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteA lovely gift to remember a special trip. What a cool workspace she has! I like Wendy's comment about seeing a quilt room set up there - of course that's a great idea :0)
ReplyDeleteSuch a nice memory quilt as a good memory to a fine daughter mum trip. And a lovely day to give it.
ReplyDeleteThe Paris map backing fabric....very good idea.
ReplyDeleteAre VooDoo donuts a chain or just local? And are they yummy? Would be hard for me working so near a good donut shop. I love cream sticks. Not the custard kind but the kind with a marshmallowy type creamy filling Our Publix stores have such good ones.
That is a beautiful quilt - love the pretty border.
ReplyDeleteWhat a darling Valentine's quilt...perfect!! Such lovely colors!
ReplyDeleteThe little quilt is darling! I esp love the Paris map back, wow. The salon is very beautiful, how does your hair look, we want to see!
