Four Ivy Xylopyrography table mats, that when put together make one picture.
The mats are made of Bamboo strips. Bamboo is difficult to draw on as it’s resistance to heat, so the Xylopyrography nibs have to be much hotter than other woods need.
The artist was Graham Fear.
Taken using camera flash, but the colour was inaccurate, so the picture has been ‘warmed’ with iPhoto.

Refuge 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.

Sashiko is a form of decorative reinforcement stitching (or functional embroidery) from Japan.
The white cotton thread on the traditional indigo blue cloth gives sashiko its distinctive appearance.
The artist Katsushika Hokusai (1760–1849) published the book New Forms for Design in 1824, and these designs have inspired many Sashiko patterns. (from Wikipedia)
The picture shows an Aizome (indigo dyeing) sashiko embroidery 100% cotton table mat.

These coiled mats are made from scraps of fabric wrapped around a cord. I like using a rainbow of scrap fabrics--they're so much fun!

I crocheted 3 little coasters today for my bedroom night stand, to go next to the mandala I made last year. I'd whip up a few for Neil's side, but I suspect he'd sooner chew glass than have his night stand covered in vintagey crochet ;-)

Obviously, she's not content to ask one of her tablemates to take her picture. I guess she prefers the angle with the selfie stick.
