Light but incredibly flavoursome, this French classic is made truly memorable by the wonderful combination of cheddar, Gruyère and Parmesan, along with the Dijon mustard and hint of cayenne. The soufflés make a wonderful start to a meal or a light lunch when served with a classic leaf salad.

Ooh la la. Silk panties that are naturally stretchy. For these refined French Cut beauties, we chose silk thread knitted together instead of woven. This type of pure silk is also more delicate than our silk charmeuse panties — and it is oh so sheer. Can it get any better? Oui oui. Full coverage through the behind — and they glisten and glow as long silk threads have a prism effect. Like hidden gems, these are the small joys in life. Designed in Toronto.

Mon Dieu, Sacré bleu - Bombay Duck just can't resist a good French classic like Bonjour.... Francophile, moi? Tell it like it is with our gold electroplated wire words! Use them to jazz up a dull corridor or add sass to a work surface or anywhere else that takes your fancy. What makes these words so special are the matching coloured screws we include with each one, to make sure no metal screw-heads spoil the uniform colour, and the way that the wire tubing sits an inch off the wall casting a little shadow - literally standing out from the crowd! Iron Electroplated Ooh: H 15 cm x W 20 x D 1.5 cm La: H 15 x W 15 x D 1.5 cm Supplied with matching gold colour wall mount screws & tubes so the word can sit slightly away from the wall, giving a shadow effect

There are many options when adding binding to your quilt....I have had a lot of success using a French Binding and here is the method I use. To begin I measure the perimeter of my quilt top and add 10 inches to that measurement...that will be the amount of binding I will need to cover the quilt top. I cut my strips 2.5 inches (from selvedge edge to selvedge edge)... Sew the strips together by placing two strips perpendicular to each other and right sides facing...draw a line from the top left corner to the lower right corner. Stitch on the drawn line....and trim away the excess fabric.... Stitch all strips end to end in the same manner. Once all the strips are stitched together - press lengthwise wrong sides together.... Open the strip up and... Take the top right hand corner of your binding strip and bring the corner down to meet the bottom of the strip... Fold the strip together again...this will become a pocket a little later. You will begin and end stitching at this point. I usually begin adding the binding to the quilt top about 1/3rd. of the way in on one side of the quilt. Place the raw edge of the binding strip to the raw edge of the quilt top... Begin sewing (1/4 inch seam allowance) with the binding open. Mark with a pin 1 inch past where the bottom of the folded corner meets the binding strip. Stitch from the top of the binding to the pin - which is marking the 1 inch mark. Now fold the binding together again and begin stitching again at the point where you ended stitching at the 1 inch mark.... Now you have created the pocket where the end of the quilt will be tucked in! Continue stitching until you are a 1/4 inch from the corner of the quilt...then stop and take the quilt out of the machine. Fold the binding straight up.... Then fold the binding back down. Start stitching again a scant 1/4 inch from the corner. Now the binding will be added to the next side of the quilt. Repeat this for all four corners of the quilt. Once the 4th corner is complete....and you are nearing the pocket ( beginning of the binding)...line the remainder of the binding up with the point where you began stitching the binding (both layers of binding).... Cut the excess tail of binding to this point....now slip the tail into the pocket... Stitch from the where you stopped to the point where the binding is stitched together with both layers....fold the binding over to the back of the quilt and stitch by hand. I hope this is clear...and helpful....just drop me a line if you have any questions :) Mary
"Look, you come to Paris, you walk into my office, you don't even bother to learn the language. You treat the city like it's your amusement park, and after a year of food, sex, wine… and maybe some culture, you'll go back from where you came. So, perhaps we'll work together. But no, we won't be friends." ― Sylvie to Emily in Sexy or Sexist Sylvie Grateau is the former chief marketing officer for Savoir's Paris location, and was in charge of the group of executives and employees that work there.
