Project Tuesday - Folded Paper Frame

Wow - this is so NOT ME. I am not even sure who was channeling me for this one !!

Project Tuesday
has some fun projects a little outside the norm - check them out, you will be intrigued ! I did a diaper fold with them a couple weeks ago, and today is a folded paper frame. Very easy to do, but once again, some precision is required.

Rufina and I are doing tea today at Ruthie B's, a most quaint tea shop (and should probably be spelled "shoppe") and having their famous tomato bisque, egg salad with pumpkin seeds, lemon shortbread cookies and, of course, chai tea !!

Once when we were there our server said "I sure can tell you two have been friends for a long long time." And another time I told Dom I was going to pop over to Rufina's for a minute, and he said "hah, a minute, that will be the day...."

Good friends, what a blessing. I think I will hit my stash and find a perfect love you card for her today...

  6. Hey Jan! This is beautiful. It made me think of quilting when you mentioned the need for precision cutting. Sometimes it's tough to bet all those little corners to match up. LOL You did a great job with this. I want to thank you for the really sweet comment you left the other day on my blog. There's a little happy waiting for you there. xoxoxo
