Torchon - Le Temps des combats - Nicolas Sarkozy

Listen to Torchon - Le Temps des combats - Nicolas Sarkozy by Léa Bory on Podcast Addict. Pour cet épisode de Torchon, le podcast qui lit des livres pour que vous n'ayez pas à le faire, Juliette et Léa ont lu le troisième tome des mémoires de l'ancien président Nicolas Sarkozy, le Temps des combats. Il y raconte la moitié de ses années au pouvoir de 2009 à 2011, en un pavé de 500 pages et quelques. Et s'il y a bien une chose qui ressort de notre lecture, c'est

If you like #torchon #BobbinLace, you might want to see this little video I did about a couple of really terrific books on this lace style.

One happens to be on special sale right now. I just accidentally found it recently and bought several for me and friends because we've wanted it--but you can't find it anywhere.

It was easier to show it in a video than describe it in text form.

#wikipedia fait partie des rares succès d'un web non-commercial, conforme à des idéaux qui sont depuis longtemps passés de mode.

Vous tous qui avez signé cette vieille feuille de PQ, et qui validez des pratiques de menaces et de #doxxing envers des bénévoles que vous jugez être vos opposants politiques, on vous voit.

@Larchmutz @HydrePrever Disons que je l'excuserais pour la génération qui a la soixantaine aujourd'hui. Ils ont connu le journal quand il était, certes de droite, mais sérieux. Mais chez les quadras et suivants, nope. #torchon

Someone challenged me to make the #Torchon page better in #Wikipedia, so I started to work on it today.

Still needs work, but it's no longer in the mid #19thCentury anymore. Now with color! Current projects! Modern art!

Oh, wow. Someone has uploaded the actual #BobbinLace samples of the #Torchon lace company.

Fascinating.

Digital archives are like tide pools. New stuff keeps getting washed in, so you have to go back and look again....

Wonderful.

@tstooth This is technically a series of tapes, which swirl around. Then later there is a join step with a Dieppe #torchon ground between them.

I am not sure my joining or "sewings" skills are up to par yet. But that will be necessary to overcome!

The prompt for an upcoming #BobbinLace competition in our local group is "By the sea". I've been thinking on some sea-related things, and found this pattern. It won't be my entry, but it was fun, like working a sketch, but in thread....

The sun bead was a fail. I was hoping the rays would look less...meh. But I liked the cloud beads.

My obsession with beads continues. I have made another bracelet, but this time with gold thread. I think I'd like to do a more delicate seed-bead version with this thread now too.

It was just beads I had around, I didn't realize 'til later that it was Ukrainian-flag adjacent!
