I would love to be able to pop a few French words in here just to celebrate learning a new thing! Champagne! Croissant!
All lovely things and about the only French words I know, so they'll have to do.

They might be clumsy and over sized take a peek above, my first ever french knots!So excited to have cracked them!
A sprinkle of them over things just adds a bit without adding too much...(this flower hair clip is an old woollen dressing gown, washed until thoroughly felted then cut and shaped.)

I was going to suggest the only French sentence I know, but after writing it was sure that the spelling was ridiculous. So Yay! Well done for mastering the knot. I hope to one day be able to claim the same.
