What shall I bring ?

on


On the way to the Quilt Show where I'm going with DW, DD1 and DD2, we will stop and visit several Châteaux in the Loire Valley. I'm not sure I will have much time for stitching but I hate going somewhere without anything!! Just in case !!! Am I the only one ???
But what to bring with me to stitch or sew that is small, easy and relaxing ? A stitchery !!!
So I have prepared The Blueberry Cottage stitchery to bring along.


A few years ago I stitched one by Lynette Anderson. The wooden button gives the stitchery a certain charm.


It was so fun that I decided to give it another try lately in order to stitch this Un Chat dans L'Aiguille needle pocket for DD2.





When I'm back, I will tell you about the Quilt Show in Nantes and the classes I attended ;-)
Until later,

    I think we all end up bringing stitching along on trips -- just in case! lol! Usually too much too! Have fun at the quilt show! I'm hoping to get to my local show for the first time in years.

    Yes David I agree, always take some stitching, cannot wait to see it finished.
    Have a lovely weekend and hope the weather is better than in the UK.

    Bravo pour ce blog magnifique et ces ouvrages si raffinés !
    Moi non plus, je ne pars jamais nulle part sans emporter un (faux : au moins cinq) truc à broder. On n'est jamais trop prudent ;-)

    Oh yes, I take stitching projects with me when I travel. As always, your work is especially nice. I am certain your daughter loves her little pocket. I am going to try to share this article with you. It appeared in one of our local newspapers this morning. I thought you might be interested.
