For lunch on Day 4 of our Celebrity Solstice Alaska Inside Passage cruise, Mike and I dined in the Grand Épernay dining room. I didn't get any photos of the menu or starter courses, as we were seated at a large table with lively conversation so I was too busy talking with our tablemates to take pics. On this particular day, the lunch menu didn't include any vegetarian main courses (apart from a veggie burger); so our waiter called over the head waiter, who said he'd get the chefs to make ''something special'' for me. My entree didn't actually arrive until everyone else at our table had finished eating their meals -- so we all eagerly awaited to see what this ''something special'' would be. Imagine our amusement (and my disappointment) when it turned out to be a plate of spaghetti with marinara sauce. I couldn't resist taking a photo of this ''special meal'' to remember it by... ;-)
These coiled mats are made from scraps of fabric wrapped around a cord. I like using different shades of the same colour in one mat--aren't these lime greens great?
My beautiful swap package from Kelie -- isn't it amazing? Blogged at fabricmutt.blogspot.com/2012/11/blessed.html.

These indigo cotton placemats are just right for casual summer dining out of doors. Perfect for an early morning breakfast or a light lunch under the sun umbrella, their dusky blue colour and open lacy patterning brings a welcome sense of cool even to the hottest of summer days.

These coiled mats are made from scraps of fabric wrapped around a cord. This one was made with some vintage marimekko linens that I inherited from my mother-in-law.
A fast and simple quilt that can be made from scraps or your pre-cuts such as strip rolls/jelly rolls.
This little quilt can be made quickly by using pre-cut 2 ½” strips and Valerie shares with you a quick tip about how to layer cut and then quickly reshuffle- which saves time so that you can get onto the fun bit of sewing!
Valerie also talks about options on quilting - in this case using buttons and/or tying - and then you could also quick turn the project , which also avoids having to do any binding!
To learn more about tying your quilt - click here
and for the fast turn method - you can enjoy a tablemat workshop with Valerie by clicking here ; this method can be used for quilts of all sizes, but make sure that you have the quilt very flat over the wadding before you sew round!

Pam and I went to a workshop with some of the Gee's Bend quilters today. Unfortunately we spent most of the time being enraged by one of our tablemates rather than working with the quilters themselves--an experience that confirmed both our essential misanthropy and the fact that there are a lot of stupid, irritating people in the world--but it was cool to hear some of their stories and hear their philosophy of quilting, which, in a nutshell, is: whatever you make is beautiful, because it is what you made. Which is pretty cool when you think about it.
Ink on white napkin.
We make these colored napkins daily for our two sons' lunches. They are both in grade school. We started these with our first son when he began first grade (5 years ago). These napkins have become fun to share with their tablemates, classes, and teachers.
Star Wars is a particularly popular request by our sons!

These coiled mats are made from scraps of fabric wrapped around a cord. This one used fabric from a thrifted cotton curtain.

efuge des Fondus, 17 rue des 3 Frères 01 42 55 22 65
The best thing about Refuge des Fondus is its originality. A self-proclaimed refuge from one of the most touristy areas in Paris, this restaurant serves its customers one of two selections—meat or cheese fondue—and wine in baby bottles at two long communal tables. The quality of the wine isn't great—perhaps because it's served in a baby bottle. Happy customers have scribbled their gratitude all over the restaurant's chalkboard walls. The help is convivial, as are (hopefully) your tablemates. You'll either leave shaking your head in amazement or, if you're more traditionally inclined, in disgust. But, in any case, you'll leave shaking your head, and that's saying something for a restaurant in the heart of a tourist machine. Does not take credit cards. Serves alcohol.

again, no space left in the sketchbook, I drew on the paper tablemats they put down instead.
Note to self: don't use promarkers in future, it goes through on to the table
oops.
