DAY ONE OF THE TOUR

After getting some morning chores done, it was time to head outside and play in the sun! I had a nice long extension cord so I could spin by the pool!

My view while I did my spinning!  I listened to an audio book for some of the time, too. So very relaxing!

And what I accomplished-almost half a bobbin. 

A great beginning!

A Little Tour

Last month when I learned that there was going to be a Tour de France, 

 I set aside my periwinkle wool/silk/linen fiber to spin during the Tour de Fleece. 

It is a pleasant fiber to spin and it is nice to sit in my room

 and quietly spin 

and think 

and give thanks for all that is good.

I was able to piece several more LeMoyne stars yesterday...

I'm finding the routine for pressing seams that doesn't lead to trouble. 

 It helps considerably not only for piecing accurately but also for laying flat! 

The Art de Jour is a stack of books for my first grand daughter

 who could get lost in a room of books for hours upon hours!
