Mary and Laura stayed by the fire ...

sewing their nine-patch quilt blocks.

*****

I imagined this pattern while reading this sentence in Laura's book

Little House in the Big Woods

Like Laura and her sisters, as soon as pioneer children could handle a needle,

they were taught to make nine-patch quilt blocks from nine squares of fabric

because they were simple to sew.

A new pattern available

in my Laura Ingalls Sewing Theme ALBUM

(Completed pillow, SOLD, thank you !)

A log cabin in the Big Woods

Little House in the Big Woods is one of my favourite books in the whole series.

I love the fact that Laura describes the daily routine

and many things that were part

of her life as a pioneer girl.

I have learned a lot of things and

I have already read it at least four or five times.

(I have sewn a little pouch  but for those of you

who fear sewing, the size is perfect for a little pillow !)

The attic was a lovely place to play ...

At the moment, I am reading "Laura Ingalls in the Big Woods"

and each sentence is a precious source of inspiration ...

The word "attic" has a very special meaning since it reminds me of my beloved grandparents

who lived in Burgondy and who took care of me 

when I was a little girl ...

Mary could sometimes churn while

Ma rested but the dash was too heavy for Laura."

The only stupid thing with words is ...

the spelling of them

Laura Ingalls 

******

I love this quote by Laura Ingalls because I love reading and writing

and I am also my DH's proof reader so this sentence is very special to me ...

I think that I will work thoroughly on this theme ...

spelling bee, slate work ... I don't know for the moment ...
