The Pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela is a centuries old trek across northern Spain done by following "The Camino de Santiago", the road to Santiago. Before February of 2001 I had not heard of "The Camino" nor of the Pilgrimage. By the end of October of that year I was in Santiago after completing the walk myself. I thought that when I reached Santiago my journey was over but I see now that my journey started way before I got to Spain and still has not ended.

Sewing Book
I'm still collecting vintage sewing books and this is one of my latest.
"The name of the game is fashion sewing-with Butterick on you side, how can you possibly lose?" -Ready Set Sew by Butterick (1971)
Sewing books during this time period seemed to favor whimsical drawings.
I have an American friend who has lived over here for more than 30 years. She has all the sewing books that she had at home in the US as a child/young woman and they are fabulous. She keeps lending them to me and I don't want to give them back!

I am so jealous.
