"Way with words"

Let start with foreigner languages...

I stitched Italian for the first time!

The Cuore e Batticuore pattern is given with 3 languages : French, English and Italian. I chose to keep them all, English was best on the banner and on the tree trunk, the title will be in French so here is the small sign hanging on the branch saying it's the nap time!

I stitched years ago this "Grusse aus Tyrol" with the ß (alt+0223) esztt

Some English now...

Old WIPs on the key theme (the treble clef,  "take the key of the fields" -= go away, the key of the enigma)

Tout finit toujours en chansons,

Let finish with songs : "le temps des cerises" J-B  Clément 1866

this song is later associated with Paris Commune

and become a revotutionary song "Time of Cherries"

and "Dansons la capucine"   J-B  Clément  1868

dédicace pour ma petite fille Capucine

une ronde 

"L'amitié se brode avec un fil solide"

meaning something like : friendship is stitched with a strong thread.
