I’ve been spending a wonderful week with my workshop ladies. We’ve been in the studio making books and jewelry and off exploring the area for inspiration and treasure gathering.
Yesterday was the Vide Grenier (literally “empty the attic”) – flea markets. There were treasures to behold and great prices.
Saturday we went to Albi after the Saturday market. Albi is magnificent and I never tire of exploring the awesome(literally) cathedral there. Right around the corner is the newly renovated Toulouse Lautrec Museum and also a wonderful pedestrian only shopping area- very trendy fashions, hand crafted hats, cafes, bookstores and a store specializing in the original blue pastel dye (made from the woad plant and the only blue dye til indigo came).
I’m off to teach- more later!
