I also finished another of the ballerina slippers that I will felt. I finished Aislings and they look very sweet, but she has been wearing them and I couldn't find them to photograph before we left. Here is their size beefore they are felted, it always amuses me!!
I also wanted to show the Halloween stitchery and cute pumpkin we had in the house before we left on holidays...guess I will finally be starting some seasonal decorating!!
We are heading into Central London for some sightseeing with the kids tomorrow and then our adventure starts in Paris. I have learned that the Paris quilting shop Le Rouvray is not far from Notre Dame so I think a small stop might be arranged during our afternoon in Paris. Then it is off to Disney for a few days before coming back to have Halloween in London with Katy and family!! You might see me blog again if I get inspired by Katy's good habits, but more than likely I'll be updating after our visit to France.

Seeing London and France...sounds wonderful. And all that food to be sampled and places to shop...enjoy.
London and France...I'll take both too! ;o) Glad you're having a grand time...Love the dolphin quilt, and can't wait to see the mary jane slippers felted! Happy Days ((HUGS))
Have a wonderful time!! :D
Don't you just love felting things? It sometimes seems so magical because you knit things that should fit a giant and *poof* when you wash it then it fits you perfectly.
What a great quilt for Olivia! Have a great time in London and Disneyland - hope you get to that quilt shop in Paris!!!
you are so productive even whilst on holidays!
looks like you are having a fabulous time! nice Halloween stitchery and fun pumpkins-look forward to hearing how Disney goes.
Ballerina slipper? Or clever way to get small children to dust mop the floors???
Hope DH has taken out a second mortgage. Le Rouvray is trés cher!
Have a great time and looking forward to hearing all about it when you get back.
Happy Halloween! Enjoy your vacation.

Lots of crafty goodness for such busy times! Those pink socks are delicious! How's your foot doing now? LOL! Had to laugh at your description of yourself...Sounds like something I would do. I have no grace--LOL! But London and Paris...glad you all had a wonderful time. Aine 6...how did that happen aleady?! Hope she had the best 6th year. :o) I cried like a baby when Obama won...just so happy! I've never cried over an election before either--LOL! Happy Days to you all ((HUGS))
After seeing your Marilinda Socks on your blog, I had to get the pattern for myself. I went to that "cookiea" site, I ordered 3 patterns & then went to Amazon.com & bought 2 books on knitting both socks simultaneously on 2 circulars. You have inspired me!
