Wouldn’t it be fun to meet your best friend here for lunch? Maybe for croissants?

I love the pink door, and I’m sure there are pastel macarons in glass cases with other french pastries. You can have a latte or cappuccino with dessert.

The quilting is a little more challenging now, and it’s fun! I enjoyed making the little chairs with variegated 12-wt thread.
