Last summer dress for Little Miss T.



These pictures were taken by little miss T.'s big sister. She also advised her on the professional model poses. Of course the dress is purple! I only have one dress left to finish (for R.) and I have used up all of my summer fabric. (This is one of your cute patterns, I.!) G.

Souvenirs


As I was ironing my teatowel from Bath, I thought, I'd show you my souvenirs from London. The fabric on the left I bought at a cute little quiltshop in Bath (we walked twice around it, before we found it!). The flowery fabric is from the V&A. And the last one is from the American Museum in Bath. G.

London


From June 11 till June 13, M. and I went to London. For the kids: here it is, the Big Ben!

Our first walk through London brought us to some lovely places.

But here is our main goal: The Victoria and Albert Museum for the Quilt Exhibition! After three hours in the exhibition we also visited the fashion department and the Grace Kelly exhibition. We arrived at our hotel at half past ten.

The next day, off to Bath.

On our way to the visit of the day: the American Museum. In the coach house is a quilt exhibition and in the main house many more quilts can be seen.


Of course we had to have tea and scones.

We'll have to make these Bath Buns some time too...
On Sunday we did a London Walk through the City Centre, which was great and we went back to the V&A to have a look at the samplers... Three wonderful days. G.

Skirt for Little Miss T.


It took me a while to finish this skirt for little Miss T. It didn't help that I punched an enormous hole in the side... but now the girls have matching skirts! G.
